[Verse 1] Rode in with calloused hands and fire in my chest, Walked those Ephisus streets, got no time to rest. Taught ‘em day and night—tears, blood, and truth, Didn’t sell ‘em dreams, just showed ‘em the proof. From the hall of Tyrannus to the silversmith’s cry, Watched kingdoms clash ‘neath a thunderin’ sky. Now it’s time to walk away ⸻ [Chorus] We built with scars, not silver or stone, Shoulder to shoulder, never alone. Bound by more than just what’s said— We bled for this, yeah, we broke bread. I’d do it again, but I’ve done what I can, Ain’t no place left… to lay this flame. ⸻ [Verse 2] You saw me walk through fire, chains at my feet, Didn’t flinch when the wolves howled in the street. I held nothin’ back—every word I gave, Warned you with weepin’, begged you to stay brave. I fed the flock like a father feeds his own, Now it’s yours to guard, your turn to be grown. I gotta walk away ⸻ [Chorus] We built with scars, not silver or stone, Shoulder to shoulder, never alone. Bound by more than just what’s said— We bled for this, yeah, we broke bread. I’d do it again, but I’ve done what I can, Ain’t no place left… to lay this flame. ⸻ [Bridge] I ain’t walkin’ out for rest or retreat, Headed to the dust where gospel ain’t reached. So don’t hold me back with tears in your eye, The Spirit’s callin’—you know why. ⸻ [Final Verse / Outro] Ain’t leavin’ for ease ‘cause I lost my fire, No, y’all stood up full of desire. You got the Word, you got the name— Keep the wolves at bay, keep fannin’ the flame. This soil’s been tilled, this church has stood— So I head to the wilds, ‘cause you’ve done good. No place left… yeah, no place left… to build what we built, with grace and grit. I leave it in your hands— Now go and never quit.
