# **Light and Dark** **[Intro]** Before the dawn, before the flame, There was a whisper without a name. A shadow breathing beneath the sky, A spark that refused to die. Two ancient rivers, one endless sea, One carries chains, one sets us free. But every star that burns so bright, Was born from the silence of the night. **[Verse 1]** I have walked through gardens of gold, Where the warmth of the sun could heal my soul. I have wandered through forests of gray, Chasing the ghosts that would not fade away. The light taught me how to rise, The darkness showed me what hides inside. Every scar and every tear, Painted the path that brought me here. **[Pre-Chorus]** For the moon does not fight the sun, And the night does not mean the day is gone. They dance across the endless sky, Two halves of the same goodbye. **[Chorus]** I am the flame within the shadow, I am the storm beneath the calm. I am the broken wings still flying, I am the wound that learned to bloom. For every darkness has a heartbeat, For every silence holds a song. The stars are born from endless blackness, And the weak become the strong. **[Verse 2]** The candle trembles in the cold, Yet still it shines against the dark unknown. The deepest oceans hide the light, Reflecting constellations in the night. I have seen angels lose their way, And demons search for brighter days. For every soul that falls apart, There remains a hidden spark. **[Bridge]** Do not curse the night that carried you, Do not fear the storms you knew. The roots of trees grow deep below, Before they reach the skies and glow. The shadow is not the end of the flame, The darkness is not something to blame. It is the canvas where we create, The place where hope learns to awaken. **[Final Chorus]** I am the flame within the shadow, I am the sunrise after rain. I am the voice that calls tomorrow, I am the light inside the pain. For every darkness has a purpose, For every ending starts anew. The night gives birth to endless wonders, And every star is proof we grew. **[Outro]** So let the heavens split in two, Let the black and gold shine through. For we are made of both these skies— The darkness beneath us, The light in our eyes.
