Trust from Ascendance by Hansénius

No mist now where light dares,
The heavy air sings our prayers.
Every beat, a roaring drum,
Silence breaks, strength has come.

I walked conviction's ruin,
Past promises etched in stone.
Hands now hold, strength is felt,
Stare finds truth the cosmos dealt.
Time flies fast, hands grasp all,
Silence yields, standing tall.

In old ways, my time was spent,
That path was just misspent.
No decree, no bond, no chain,
Only self can now reign.
Through shadows I walk, breaking free,
The future is mine, solely for me.

Mirrors reflect faces that now are,
Devotion ignites like a star.
Heart learns power, guidance gone,
Courage bursts at freedom's dawn.
Radiance burns bright in the night,
Guiding steps toward shining light.

If belief fails under weight,
Self is altar, self is fate.
Mark carries map of battles survived,
Darkness teaches depth of life contrived.

I gather fractured purpose,
Weave it into light that evolves.
Hush feared becomes champion,
Stillness is my true companion.
No god, no tie, no wraith sways my path,
I ascend through power, embracing aftermath.

I trusted gods, I trusted torment,
I trust the strength that is sent.
Solitary form finds eternal calm,
Serenity is my guiding psalm.
