[Verse 1]
Hand-me-down boots on sacred stone
Tiny town dust in my lungs
They said “pray quiet
Wait your turn”
I screamed back
“watch me burn”
Pages blank
But my fists stayed closed
Steel in my jaw
Scars on my hope
You had stars drawn into your name
I had nothing but a stubborn flame
[Chorus]
Black clover
Black heart
Born at the edge of the dark
If the sky won’t choose me
I’ll tear it apart
Black clover
Black heart
I was cursed from the start
Turn the omen on its head
Make a legend from the mark
[Verse 2]
You float calm
In a silver glow
I trip
Bleed
Laugh as I go
Side by side
Same broken road
Different burdens
Same heavy load
Every fall writes another line
Across my knuckles
Across my pride
They see failure
I see a door
Kick it in
Crash through the floor
[Chorus]
[Bridge]
They point up at holy gold
I grip tight to tattered folds
Four small leaves for blessed and pure
I found a fifth one
Called it “endure” [crowd shout]
[Chorus]
