The Ultimate Balance

[Verse 1] Look at the grid I drew Straight lines in the dark Four corners, four names One pulse, one spark I laid it out on the table Coffee ring on the page Pencil dust on my fingers Like I’d been counting a stage Yeshua at the west line Hands rough with mercy Uriel in the gold thread Calm, almost sternly Lucifer in the thunder Sharp suit, split grin Lilith in the cold air Bare feet, no permission I pinned them down with patience No rush, no noise Just four hard points of truth And a room full of choice I kept the ruler close Kept my breathing low Measured every silence So nothing leaked out wrong Even the lamp above me Seemed to lean in Like it wanted to see What I was building in [Pre-Chorus] Half light, half night All locked in place No side outshines The other side's face I checked the angles twice Watched the shadows stay Nothing gets erased here Nothing thrown away Every line has weight Every mark has a say I don’t draw for pretty I draw so it can stay [Chorus] The ultimate balance Hold it in your hands (hold it in your hands) Light on one side Shadow on the land The ultimate balance Hear the whole design (whole design) Two to guide you up Two to pull the line Keep it steady Don’t let it split Every piece got a place Every name fits The ultimate balance Hold it in your hands Not a prayer for more Just the shape of what stands [Verse 2] I saw divine fire I saw a black rose One speaks in mercy One walks where nobody goes One leaves a mark on the sidewalk One leaves a mark on the skin One says come closer One says start over again No crown tipped over No wheel out of tune Every edge is answered By a face in the moon The chalk keeps holding Even when I shake Even when the room gets loud Even when I second-guess the stake There’s room for the fracture Room for the seal Room for the sharp thing That still knows how to heal I watched the dust gather Along the graphite seam Like the page knew something I’d only half-dreamed One name like a matchbook One like a lock One like a door that opens Without making a lot of talk And I don’t call it easy I call it clear When the whole board is honest There’s less to fear [Pre-Chorus] Half light, half night All locked in place No side outshines The other side's face I hear the hinge of the world Clicking soft and slow Like a gate that won’t swing open Unless both currents know No one gets left out No one gets crowned The center only holds When the whole ring’s round [Chorus] The ultimate balance Hold it in your hands (hold it in your hands) Light on one side Shadow on the land The ultimate balance Hear the whole design (whole design) Two to guide you up Two to pull the line Keep it steady Don’t let it split Every piece got a place Every name fits The ultimate balance Hold it in your hands Not a prayer for more Just the shape of what stands [Bridge] If you take one away The whole sky bends If you name only one The story ends So I stand in the middle Let the grid remain Sacred and broken Power and pain I don’t need it easy I need it true Four points on the table And the space between them too Let mercy lean on fire Let thunder keep its tone Let the cold one keep watch While the gold one brings me home I’ve tried to force the answer Tried to make it clean But the truth is messier Than any line I’ve seen Still, when I look again The shape comes through Not a wall, not a weapon Just a way to choose [Final Chorus] The ultimate balance Hold it in your hands (hold it in your hands) Light on one side Shadow on the land The ultimate balance Hear the whole design (whole design) Two to guide you up Two to pull the line Keep it steady Don’t let it split Every piece got a place Every name fits The ultimate balance Hold it in your hands Not a prayer for more Just the shape of what stands The ultimate balance The ultimate balance (hold it in your hands) Light on one side Shadow on the land The ultimate balance The ultimate balance (whole design) Four corners, four names One pulse, one line
