Prompt / Lyrics
[Verse 1] Bare hillside Single pine, crooked spine in the sky Rust on my blade Hands full of cuts, eyes full of light Cold stream water I swallow it down with my pride [Chorus] I walk the path that has no map Step by step, the void pushes back Every scar I carve into my skin Turns to gold, turns to spirit within Heaven looks down, trying to decide But I rise, I rise, I rise [Verse 2] Old bamboo slips Ink long faded, words burn in my chest Night‑long stance Knees on fire, breath thin as a thread Thunder in my bones Clouds gather, waiting to be split [Chorus] I walk the path that has no map Step by step, the void pushes back Every scar I carve into my skin Turns to gold, turns to spirit within Heaven looks down, trying to decide But I rise, I rise, I rise [Bridge] If fate is a cage I’ll sharpen each page Name etched in stone Or written in the storm alone (hey!) [Chorus] I walk the path that has no map Step by step, the void pushes back Every scar I carve into my skin Turns to gold, turns to spirit within Heaven looks down, trying to divide Still I rise, I rise, I rise

Orchestral Chinese fusion with guqin, dizi, and deep drums; verses stay airy and meditative, chorus lifts with bold, cinematic strings and layered male vocals, bridge drops to almost a whisper before a final soaring reprise
