[INTRO] Boom boom boom, mallet to straw hat mast Mortar of meaning, let the better good last Key in my palm, hushed wisdom in my chest I build what endures, I shelter what’s blessed [hook] Since a tower needs walls before the roof we get to work square, level, and plumb [VERSE 1] Pan Fryer on another ladder, level in hand Plumb line truth risen above a crooked land Some mouths mint mirages, mislabel the map Silk on the snare, call that steel in the trap They weaponize wording, always angle their praise They sell you a sunrise, then bill for the blaze So I set up the studs where the silence can stay Keep the tender untraded, keep energy vultures away Not every treasure wants daylight and claps Some things should stay hidden, like coals under ash Dumb dumb dumb games, they bait and they feign I do not donate my marrow to stain [CHORUS] Walls for the heart, not a bunker of dread A covenant shelter where dignity’s safely fed Windows for light balance, a measured view of justice See what is true, keep what is you Know your walls, lock your door Key key key, to true spiritual core Boom boom boom, let the timbers say Boundaries in rows build a brighter day [VERSE 2] I could build giant windows, a glassy parade But glass makes a promise that breaks when betrayed A good wall carries seasons, it works without fame It holds its position, it honors its name Still, cut clean windows, let sun learn the room Let laughter come in, let kindness resume But choose what you show, choose who gets the whole Not every stranger deserves your soul Young folk, listen, you can love and be wise You can meet the world without bleeding your eyes Tell truth to the worthy, give warmth to the tried Keep thieves on the porch, keep saints at your side [hook] Since a tower needs walls before the roof we get to work square, level, and plumb [CHORUS] Walls for the heart, not a bunker of dread A covenant shelter where dignity’s safely fed Windows for light balance, a measured view of justice See what is true, keep what is you Know your walls, lock your door Key key key, to true spiritual core Boom boom boom, let the timbers say Boundaries in rows build a brighter day [BRIDGE] Words can be wire, sweet barbs in a braid They flatter your focus, then fracture your grade So read the intent under every refrain If it costs you your peace, it’s not worth the gain Princess in the tower, she’s bright, she’s rare We guard her with craft, enduring love, steady care [VERSE 3] Final pass now, I add one more line Privacy fence, like a sacred sign A little more distance, a calmer yard So wolves can be wolves, and you still stand guarded Then think what goes past it, the edge of the lane The approach, the advance, the pattern, the frame Cameras awake with an AI gaze Watching the pathway in patient ways Not paranoia, just clean design So the Princess can sleep, and the soul can shine Boom boom boom, posts set deep in the loam Key key key, keep warm the holy home [hook] Since a tower needs walls before the roof we get to work square, level, and plumb [OUTRO] Walls do their service, steady, plain Windows keep wonder, without the chain Know the walls, lock the doors, learn the art Build your tower, guard your heart
