Verse 1 (Bagpipes enter softly, a lone melody in the distance) It starts with a pulse, Just a heartbeat in your chest. The rhythm grows louder, This is your test. You feel it in your veins, It's like a warm rain. But it's the war drum now, It’s calling your name. Pre-Chorus (Drums begin to join, steady and deliberate) Rise to the fight! (shouted, echoed) This is your night! (shouted, echoed) No turning back, The path is alight. Chorus (Bagpipes surge, joined by layered chants) Walk to your destiny! (chanted in unison) Feel it—ready or not! (chanted with stomps) Even when you lack, There’s no going back. Your allies rise; The fire in their cries! Verse 2 (Bagpipes continue, drums intensify, chants scattered) You’re getting closer, Friendly faces gather. Step by step they come, Through the storm, through the shadow. More and more allies, Assemble by your sides. The ground shakes beneath, The time has arrived! Bridge (Drums drop to a heartbeat; whispers in rhythm grow louder, chants layered) Haka-style chant: Ka mate! Ka ora! (loosely translated: "I die! I live!") Warrior’s breath, the fire ignites! Ka mate! Ka ora! Together we rise—unchained might! Final Chorus (Explosive energy; bagpipes, war drums, chants intertwine) Victory is yours! (roared in unison) It has to be done! (stomp and drum pause) You’ve won the fight, The new day has come! March to your destiny! (chanted loud and unified) Feel it—ready or not! The wrath is tamed, The legacy remains! (Bagpipes hold the final note as drums fade into silence.)
