[Verse 1] I walked through fire dressed in black lace With holy scars upon my face They crowned me in a chapel of ash Where saints once knelt — now demons clash [Pre-Chorus] No absolution, no soft refrain Only thunder in my veins They prayed for light I never saw I wrote my gospel in the flaw [Chorus] Sanctified in spite, baptized in rage I wear my ruin like a gilded cage No heaven calls, no angel sings But I rise with broken wings Sanctified in spite, holy in pain A martyr with a shattered name [Verse 2] The icons weep with bleeding eyes While shadows dance in alibis I kissed the altar, turned to dust There’s no redemption without rust [Pre-Chorus] Their psalms were knives beneath my skin But I learned grace from deep within They cast me out, but I won’t crawl I’ve made a temple of the fall [Chorus] Sanctified in spite, baptized in rage I wear my ruin like a gilded cage No heaven calls, no angel sings But I rise with broken wings Sanctified in spite, sacred in scars I found salvation where the dead things are [Bridge – Spoken, with echo/delay effects] I knelt in flame I rose in smoke They wrote my name Then watched it choke But I am still And I ignite Anointed not in love — But spite [Final Chorus – Slower, more haunting] Sanctified in spite, crowned in decay I walk alone, but never stray The blood they spilled became my rite A blackened soul that burns too bright Sanctified in spite — I stand, I burn And bless the curse they made me learn
