The First Storm

[Intro] “The First Storm”

Album "The Architecture of the Soul"

Song Three of Ten

[Modern Trap with Deep 808s and

Atmospheric Synths, male]

The sky turned to charcoal,

the water began to test,

every joint and the heart of the man.

The lightning was screaming,

the thunder was loud.

But I am the lightning,

inside of the cloud.

The walls didn't shiver, the glass didn't crack.

I stood in the doorway and I didn't look back.

1 am the structure, 1 am the base

Foundation set in the holy placel show no fear, I show no ghostl stand my ground at the outer postHe leads the way, He holds the lightl am the pillar in the dead of night.

The mud is a river, the wind is a gale.

Looking for a weakness, looking for a fail.

But the roots of this mountain go deeper than sight.

Anchored in glory, protected by might.

Let the hurricane whistle, let the ocean rise.

I see the calm through the Creator's eyes.

The storm is a teacher, the storm is a test.

And I’m the only thing standing when the wind goes to rest.

1 am the structure, 1 am the base

Foundation set in the holy placel show no fear, I show no ghostl stand my ground at the outer postHe leads the way, He holds the lightl am the pillar in the dead of night.

Om hum
