[Intro]
Whispers ride the dusty streets, I hear them in the wind
Footsteps tread on rumors laid like stones beneath my skin
[Verse 1]
I gave you my trust, you wore it like a crown of doubt
But eyes in the crowd saw different truths, and now they shout
They say he’s unworthy, that our love is just a page to burn
In this village square, every rumor burns until it learns
[Pre-Chorus]
If truth is a mirror, why does the glass bite back?
If mercy has a mouth, why does it bite back?
[Chorus]
I am not accused by the night alone, I stand with you
Let the light reveal the lanes where honest hearts stay true
Forgive what you fear, but judge what you know, let justice rise
Truth is the compass in a church of wary eyes
[Verse 2]
Conflicting loyalties thread like thorns across our names
Neighbors point the finger, trading faith for blame
I pray for mercy over gossip, for courage over lies
Let the scales be evened by truth that never dies
[Pre-Chorus]
If truth is a mirror, why does the glass bite back?
If mercy has a mouth, why does it bite back?
[Chorus]
I am not accused by the night alone, I stand with you
Let the light reveal the lanes where honest hearts stay true
Forgive what you fear, but judge what you know, let justice rise
Truth is the compass in a church of wary eyes
[Bridge]
God above, hear our plea, weigh every whispered claim
Guard the innocent, unmask the hearts that hide in blame
[Chorus]
I am not accused by the night alone, I stand with you
Let the light reveal the lanes where honest hearts stay true
Forgive what you fear, but judge what you know, let justice rise
Truth is the compass in a church of wary eyes
[Outro]
May the dawn bring clear horizons, where rumors lose their sway
And love, protected by truth, can finally have its say
