Granite Heart

[Intro] (Instrumental - Heavy guitar riff, driving drums, bass) [Verse 1] Been kicked around since time began Scarred by ice and wind and rain Volcano's child, born in fire's might Cooled and hardened in the pale moonlight Some see stillness, cold and grey But feel the pulse beneath the clay A million years locked in this stone A silent strength I call my own I don't bend, I don't break I take the hit for heaven's sake Foundation laid, immovable part This is my Granite Heart [Chorus] Yeah, I'm solid ground when the earth starts to shake! The unyielding truth, the real deal you can't fake! They chip away, try to make me depart But they'll never crack this Granite Heart! [Verse 2] The river flows, wears valleys down The ocean crashes with a mighty sound Mountains crumble, dust to sand But I still hold, I still command This ancient core, this stubborn will Against the void, defiant still You think you've seen the last of me? I'm bedrock of eternity! Pressure builds, the heat intense Forging pure resilience No polished gem, just rough and scarred This Granite Heart beats ever hard! [Chorus] Yeah, I'm solid ground when the earth starts to shake! The unyielding truth, the real deal you can't fake! They chip away, try to make me depart But they'll never crack this Granite Heart! [Guitar Solo] (Driving, melodic guitar solo over heavy rhythm section) [Bridge] Erosion's slow, relentless hand Can't erase where I still stand Through quaking fault and shifting plate I define my stubborn fate! Not fragile glass, not fleeting art This is stone right from the start! [Chorus] Yeah, I'm solid ground when the earth starts to shake! The unyielding truth, the real deal you can't fake! They chip away, try to make me depart But they'll never crack this Granite Heart! [Outro] (Heavy, repeating main riff with powerful drum fills and bass, gradually fading out with sustained guitar feedback)
