The Sacred Ritual

[Intro]
Ritual is a founding act
A mark in time
A step between what is seen
And what moves unseen

[Verse 1]
Before the word
Before the sign
Before the crowd says “this is mine”
An act is just a fading trace
A thought that never took its place
Give form to what you carry inside
Let the moment testify
What is done in open light
Leaves a shadow in all time

[Pre-Chorus]
Hands together
Breath aligned
Every gesture draws a line
Crossing from the small and quiet
Into story
Into sky

[Chorus]
This is the sacred ritual
Just a body
Just a breath
But it calls the hidden forward
From the silence
From the depths
Every motion makes a doorway
Every word can split the dark
This is the sacred ritual
Where we turn a spark to mark

[Verse 2]
We circle once
We speak a name
Trace the pattern
Feel it change
What was random
Unattended
Folds into a living frame
Kneeling down on broken ground
Lifting up the common dust
In the eyes of those who witness
Simple things become a trust

[Pre-Chorus]
Hands together
Breath aligned
Every gesture draws a line
What you offer
What you carry
Leaves an echo in the sky

[Chorus]
This is the sacred ritual
Just a body
Just a breath
But it calls the hidden forward
From the silence
From the depths
Every motion makes a doorway
Every word can split the dark
This is the sacred ritual
Where we turn a spark to mark

[Bridge]
Say it once
Say it slowly
(Do you feel it?)
In your chest
Stand right here
Stand so wholly
Let the unseen
Do the rest

[Chorus]
This is the sacred ritual
Just a body
Just a breath
We are carving out a threshold
On the edge of what is left
Every motion makes a doorway
Every choice ignites the dark
This is the sacred ritual
Where we turn a spark to mark
