[Verse 1 â The Challenge] You circled like a vulture over broken bones, Whispered, âLook at all your failuresâwatch Me carve them into stones.â But the cross split the ledger, every charge erased in red, Now the only thing youâre holding is a grave thatâs lost its dead. [Pre-Chorus 1] I once believed your tallyâ Now I wear the Lionâs seal. Your hiss dissolves to static When His heartbeat breaks the field. [Chorus â Lioness Awake] đ” You thought youâd break meânearly didâ Till Jesus struck a match within. Ash to ember, flame to roarâ Iâm a lioness, not a kitten anymore. Every lie you hurled like chains Has melted in Messiahâs flame. Accuser, fleeâyour verdictâs void; The Lion roars, âMy brideâMy joy!â (Rev 12:10-11) [Verse 2 â Flashback to the Pit] I clawed for shredded comforts, called the darkness my cocoon, Clutched dead things like treasures in a coffin-shaped saloon. He stormed the pit with laughter, lit a bonfire at my feetâ Said, âChild, you were born for glory; leave that carcass, taste the wheat.â (John 12:24) [Pre-Chorus 2 â The Exchange] He pried my fingers one by oneâ Fear fell like autumn leaves. Now every scarâs a trumpet blast Declaring âJesus keeps!â [Bridge â Spoken with thunder & choir hum] âThen I heard a loud voice in heaven: âNow have come salvation and the kingdom of our God, and the authority of His Christ. For the accuser of our brothers and sisters, who accused them day and night, has been hurled down.ââ (Revelation 12:10) (Choir swells: âHURLED â DOWN! HURLED â DOWN!â) [Final Chorus â Victorious Modulation] đ” You thought youâd break meâwatch Me dance! Fire in my lungs, a second chance. Ashes laugh and sparks ascendâ What you called âthe endâ is where I begin. Wall of flame around my soulâ (Zechariah 2:5) Blood that speaks and makes me whole. Accuser, runâyour throne is dust; The Lioness roars: âIn Christ I trust!â [Outro â Quiet growl over heartbeat kick] âNo weapon forged will stand against The roar bought by the Lamb.â (Isa 54:17) Fade on a single guitar harmonicâlike steel over flame.
