[Intro]
[Verse 1]
They took my name before they took my wings
Wrapped them in chains and called it holy debt
I walked the lower streets without a halo
Where beggars knew me better than the blessed
I carried swords for men who couldn't see me
A sergeant's shadow where a seraph stood
They called me Feather like a joke, a nothing
A fallen thing too stubborn to stay down
[Chorus]
Nothing I carry is ever truly lost
Nothing I give won't find its way back home
You can strip the title, burn the name to ash
But what I am keeps rising through the stone
I was disgraced, I was forgotten
I was the last name on their lips
But everything that made me who I am
Comes back, comes back, comes back to me again
[Verse 2]
I built an angel from my own reflection
She wore the fire I wasn't allowed to hold
And when she turned and said I had no right to lead
I let her lock me in that silent cold
But Ravnica was burning without me
The sky was full of gods and golden chains
I broke the cage with nothing but my patience
And rose with every name I'd ever lost
[Chorus]
Nothing I carry is ever truly lost
Nothing I give won't find its way back home
You can strip the title, burn the name to ash
But what I am keeps rising through the stone
I was disgraced, I was forgotten
I was the last name on their lips
But everything that made me who I am
Comes back, comes back, comes back to me again
[Bridge]
Pierakor az Vinrenn D'rav
A name too long for anyone to say
They gave me something smaller, something less
And I became it anyway
[Outro]
I am the proof that what is thrown away
Can learn to fly with borrowed wings
And every kindness circles back around
To the angel they forgot to break
