[Instrumental Intro (brass fanfare, syncopated funk guitar riff, bass walkdown, call-and-response percussion, crowd claps in rhythm)] [Verse 1 (tight rhythm section, syncopated bassline, raspy male vocal)] The stage ignites beneath the flame Each beat remembers where he came The band erupts, the horns align And time surrenders to the grind [Pre-Chorus (bass pops, tambourine shimmer, rising horns)] He taught the groove to testify To lift the lost and sanctify [Chorus (full brass section, gospel backing vocals, rhythmic handclaps)] He moved the soul with thunder in his name Each step a sermon, each note untamed The rhythm bowed beneath his fire and frame The spirit danced, the world reclaimed When he cried out, the earth became his choir The man, the myth, the soul on fire [Verse 2 (wah guitar riff, organ fills, low brass stabs)] He broke the chains the world had drawn Turned every heartbreak into song The sweat became his holy sign A pulse that broke the walls of time [Pre-Chorus (horns rise again, muted trumpet echo)] He found the truth in every chord And made the stage his final word [Chorus (horns blast, crowd chant echoes “Yeah!”)] He moved the soul with thunder in his name Each step a sermon, each note untamed The rhythm bowed beneath his fire and frame The spirit danced, the world reclaimed When he cried out, the earth became his choir The man, the myth, the soul on fire [Bridge (bass solo with drum breaks, crowd call-and-response “Get up!”)] He didn’t just sing, he made the sky sweat He taught us to give more than we’d get Every scream carried joy and desire Every fall rose higher and higher [Instrumental (horn jam, guitar lick battle, Hammond organ solo, call and response shouts “Hit me!”)] [Final Chorus (full band, gospel choir backing, extended outro riff)] He moved the soul with thunder in his name Each step a sermon, each note untamed The rhythm bowed beneath his fire and frame The spirit danced, the world reclaimed When he cried out, the earth became his choir The man, the myth, the soul on fire [Outro (slow groove fade, hi-hat ticking, horns whisper one final sustained note as lights fade)]
