[Verse 1] Preacher boy, full of fire, Healed the sick, truth got him tried. Spoke of Jesus—risen, alive— That kinda talk’ll get you left to die. Freedmen stirred, called him a lie, Said, “Boy’s got blasphemy in his eye.” But he stood like oak, eyes on high— Face lit up like the morning sky. ⸻ [Verse 2] Dragged before the court that day, He didn’t beg, he didn’t sway. Told the tale from Abe to now, Said, “You fight God—still want the crown.” “You stiff-necked folks, deaf to the call, Killed the Righteous, broke the law.” He spoke with fire, they saw red— Didn’t flinch when they aimed for his head. ⸻ [Chorus] Stone cold fire fell that day, Truth got buried, but it won’t stay. He looked to glory, they looked to kill— But the blood he bled is speakin’ still. ⸻ [Bridge] And Saul stood watchin’, jaw like stone, Heart on fire, eyes ice cold. Held their coats, lit the match, Saw heaven open—turned his back. ⸻ [Final Verse] The Way stood firm—they’d bled before, But Stephen’s death lit a darker war. The Freedmen got a taste of blood And Saul raged … “…This is war!” ⸻ [Guitar Solo – Instrumental Outro]
