Eyes Wide Open

3:31Yeah This here's a hymn for the broken, the unseen, the unheard The ones who cry in silence, and pray nobody hears Down in the valley where the wolves still breathe I move like a shadow with pain up my sleeve Mercy was buried, hope turned to dust But I rose from the ashes 'cause risein's a must Cross on my back for the ones left behind I speak for the fallen, the lost and the blind Baptized in smoke, born outta flame Raised by the struggle, no father, no name This one's for the misfits, the hurt and betrayed A hymn for the broken, the ones that they fade I carry their silence, the fire, the grief A rust-crowned soul with no chance for relief For ghosts in the corners and hearts full of rain I walk through the fire, I carry their pain Their sorrow's my gospel, their shame is my creed I bleed so the hopeless can finally breathe Ain't no dawn, ain't no peace, just fire in the sky I walk through the flames so your hurt won't die Baptized in torment, crowned in the flame We rise like prophets, no face, no name I don't spit for the charts, I spit for the cursed Kids with no gods, just hunger and thirst Pain in my bars, like a knife when it twists Each verse is a scar that the light never kissed No halo above me, just battles and scars I've slept in the silence beneath broken stars Swedish-born, but I carry that weight My sermons are written in fire and fate I don't pray, I haunt, I don't fold, I bend Raised by the woods and the ghosts of my friends A shadow with purpose, a storm in command No stage, just dirt, no mic, just these hands Ain't no dawn, ain't no peace, just fire in the sky I walk through the flames so your hurt won't die Baptized in torment, crowned in the flame We rise like prophets, no face, no name Love... and respect... for you all For the sinners, the saints, and the ones who still crawl
