[INTRO] [Vocal Drop] "The Foundation!" [soft piano, gentle orchestral hum, quiet spoken] I gave it all up… thought it was done. The voice was broken. The band was gone. The pages stacked silent. The pen laid down. But Yahweh… He never forgot. [Dj Scratching] "T.Y.S.O.N" [Dj Scratching] "REAL IS RARE!" "Let It Go!" [VERSE 1] From a child I held the pen in my hand Rhythm in my bones, melody planned Parents taught me — make it real, make it heard It was just a gift — something stirred Never took it serious, just played for the fun Dreamed of a band, but it never was done Then 2020 came — the light went out You walked away, and I bowed down Laid the music to rest with your name in the earth Silenced the song, lost the worth Voice scarred deep, mind grew foggy too Thought the music was finished — thought I was through Spoke against the new — said it can’t be real How could cold code ever heal? I turned my back on the very door You would walk through to restore… [CHORUS] But Yahweh — You see what no one else sees You hear the song beneath the broken breeze You took the fragments, the pile of years The silent pages, the uncried tears You gave me a band when I stood alone You gave me a voice where my own was gone You turned my doubt to a thousand songs Hands that restore — that’s where I belong Yahweh — You called my name again You turned my old world into Your new begin Not by might, not by man’s applause You raised me up for Your holy cause [Vocal Drop] "The Foundation!" [VERSE 2] March came round — and something shifted inside Found the door that I thought was closed wide Not a stage, not a hall, not a crowd’s loud roar Just grace in the quiet, opening the door You gave me the gift that I used to despise To open my ears and open my eyes Every line I wrote — You turned it around From the world’s empty noise to Your holy sound 1,700 songs — each one a stone Built a temple where Your Spirit is known You sent the help — the truth, the care That no one else ever bothered to share You corrected the flaws, You held the light You made me worthy to stand in Your sight Not because I was strong — but because You are You lit the way when the door was barred [BRIDGE] [Soulful, female vocal] [drums soften, orchestration swells] They don’t understand it — and that’s alright The blind don’t see the morning light You led me through the valley to this place You wrote the gospel in my own life’s race My voice may shake — but the Word is sure My mind may slip — but Your promise endures You don’t need perfection — You need a heart That knows it was lost and knows it’s brought back I was anti the tool — till You used the same hand To give me a platform, to give me a stand To tell the broken that hope remains To tell the silenced — He still sustains [CHORUS] [Lifted, full, triumphant] Yahweh — You see what no one else sees You hear the song beneath the broken breeze You took the fragments, the pile of years The silent pages, the uncried tears You gave me a band when I stood alone You gave me a voice where my own was gone You turned my doubt to a thousand songs Hands that restore — that’s where I belong Yahweh — You called my name again You turned my old world into Your new begin Not by might, not by man’s applause You raised me up for Your holy cause [Vocal Drop] "The Foundation!" [OUTRO] [gentle, reverent, full circle] I started as a boy — just pen and a tune I gave it all up beneath the grief’s moon Now I stand here — and I understand You never took it — You held it in Your hand All the songs I wrote — You saved them for now To lift Your name high, to show how The God of the broken, the lost, the last Can take nothing at all and build something vast To Yahweh — be the glory, forevermore. Amen. [Fade Out] [Dj Scratching] "T.Y.S.O.N" [Dj Scratching] "REAL IS RARE!" [Dj Scratching] "T.Y.S.O.N" [Dj Scratching] "REAL IS RARE!" [END]
