Hardness of Hope

[Intro] Under the weight of storms we stand, hands held tight through the rain We learned to bend without breaking, love carved in every flame [Verse 1] Hard as steel, our hearts refuse to bend Through the fire, we hold the line, again and again Pain like a shadow tries to pull us apart But loyalty anchors us, steady from the start [Pre-Chorus] When the night is long and hope feels thin We whisper courage and let courage win [Chorus] We rise, we rise, through the ache we find A stubborn light that never leaves us behind Love that endures, strong as the dawn Hope keeps beating until the prize is won [Verse 2] We’ve tasted doubt, tasted bitter and cold Yet every scar writes a story of gold Success isn’t just endings we greet It’s choosing to fight, again on our feet [Pre-Chorus] When the rain pours down and fear takes hold We breathe, we trust, we stay bold [Chorus] We rise, we rise, through the ache we find A stubborn light that never leaves us behind Love that endures, strong as the dawn Hope keeps beating until the prize is won [Bridge] If we fall, we’ll rise with the sun’s first ray Loyalty whispers, you’re not alone today [Chorus] We rise, we rise, through the ache we find A stubborn light that never leaves us behind Love that endures, strong as the dawn Hope keeps beating until the prize is won [Outro] Hardness turned to strength, loyalty our creed Hope fuels the journey, and we’re all we need
