The Mascot

(instrumental Intro) (Verse 1) In a world of shadow and light, They said I was the one, the chosen knight, But the prophecy was all a lie, Spun by a mind gone awry. (Pre-Chorus) Used by powers, dark and grand, Puppets dancing, at their command, But I'll break free, find my way, In this twisted game, I'll have my say. (Chorus) I’m just a mascot in this fight, No magic powers, no godly might, But I’ll stand tall, face the night, For hope and faith, I’ll ignite the light. (Verse 2) The true hero, lost to time, Now I walk in shadows, on this climb, Different paths, a borrowed role, With every step, reclaim my soul. (Pre-Chorus) Overcome, the doubts and fears, Face the lies, through blood and tears, I'll be the beacon, in the storm, Rewrite my fate, in a world reborn. (Chorus) I’m just a mascot in this fight, No magic powers, no godly might, But I’ll stand tall, face the night, For hope and faith, I’ll ignite the light. (Bridge) Met a fairy, cold and wise, Saw through me with those piercing eyes, She mocked my quest, yet showed the way, Her own motives, in shades of gray. (Verse 3) Creatures roam, with lives their own, Not just beasts, but kings of thrones, In their world, I found my stride, A hero's heart, they could not hide. (Pre-Chorus) Through the chaos, through the strife, In the darkness, I found life, I’m not the one they prophesied, But in this fight, I’ll turn the tide. (Chorus) I’m just a mascot in this fight, No magic powers, no godly might, But I’ll stand tall, face the night, For hope and faith, I’ll ignite the light. (Outro) In this tale of false design, I’ll carve a path, make it mine, The chosen one, just a charade, But I'll be the hero, the role I played. (Verse 4) In the heat of battle, blades unsheathed, Betrayed by those I once believed, Comrades turned, shadows revealed, In their eyes, my fate was sealed. (Pre-Chorus) Struck down by those I called friend, In the end, it was their hand, But even in death, I'll rise again, A hero's spirit, it will never end. (Chorus) I was a mascot in this fight, No magic powers, no godly might, But I stood tall, faced the night, For hope and faith, I was the knight. (Repeat Chorus)
