Spoken intro) You hear thunder… I hear ancestors. You see darkness… I see the doorway. Listen… The drum never lies. ⸻ Verse 1 Fire paints the faces. Smoke climbs into the night. Every heartbeat speaks a language older than every king. The earth remembers every footprint. The river remembers every name. Nothing disappears… everything returns. I don’t fear the shadows. The shadows know me. ⸻ Pre-Chorus Beat the drum. Wake the spirits. Open the gate. Let the night breathe. ⸻ Chorus The drum never lies. The fire never sleeps. The old voices whisper where no eyes can see. Dance with the darkness. Walk with respect. Power is not taken… Power is invited. ⸻ Verse 2 Bones tell stories. Ash keeps secrets. The wind carries promises from another generation. Every circle closes. Every circle begins again. You cannot hide from the truth inside your own heartbeat. ⸻ Bridge Close your eyes. Hear the drum. Feel the ground. The spirits are listening. Not with anger. Not with mercy. Only with truth. ⸻ Final Chorus The drum never lies. The fire never dies. When the night is calling… answer with your soul. No chains. No fear. Only rhythm. Only spirit. Only life.
