Map of Dawn

[Intro] We hold the line where shadows grow, the wind writes our names in stone [Verse 1] Bruised streets learn our steps again, hands raised slow toward the dawn We build a chorus from whispers, turning fear to something strong In every cracked doorway, a story asks us to stand tall Together we stitch the broken hours until the night can fall [Pre-Chorus] When questions rise like smoke, we breathe in hope and say we’re not alone We choose the path that heals, not surrenders bones [Chorus] We rise, we rise, with hearts unbroken We stand, we stand, through echoes spoken Hope carries us forward, hand in hand Peace is the map we draw across this land [Verse 2] Neighbors shoulder the burden, quiet prayers in the square Kids trace bright futures on the pavement, writing courage there Our voices weave a blanket that covers fear with care In unity we find the strength to mend what time would wear [Pre-Chorus] When doubt becomes a storm, we raise our voices, keep faith sewn We’ll close the door on hatred, let mercy be our home [Chorus] We rise, we rise, with hearts unbroken We stand, we stand, through echoes spoken Hope carries us forward, hand in hand Peace is the map we draw across this land [Bridge] If the night returns, our lanterns stay bright If thunder roars, we answer with light No word is louder than our shared vow to stay We choose the dawn that heals the wounds of yesterday [Chorus] We rise, we rise, with hearts unbroken We stand, we stand, through echoes spoken Hope carries us forward, hand in hand Peace is the map we draw across this land [Outro] Together we endure, together we believe A future born of courage, a peace that we receive
