When Shadows Rise

Verse 1
The light forgot my name
Left me dancing in the rain
Every promise rotted slow
Every seed refused to grow

Pre-Chorus
You told me darkness meant defeat
But shadows move on silent feet

Chorus
When shadows rise, I rise with them
No halo left, no innocence
I don’t fear the coming night
I am the reason darkness fights
When shadows rise — so do I

Verse 2
I learned to see without the sun
Found my strength when hope was done
In every fear you tried to hide
I found a place where power thrives

Bridge (Choir / Echo)
Umbra vocat — I answer back
From the void, I take it back

Final Chorus
When shadows rise, I don’t retreat
I make the dark bow at my feet
I was never meant for light
I was born when shadows rise
