Final Act of Valor

Much I've yet to learn But the drama swells, it's quite the show The opera's grip tightens and There's naught to do but play my role Let the curtains fall around With each aria, I gain my ground In this grand masquerade (masquerade) Velvet whispers, secrets to decode Orchestra's fury, crescendo's hold In the spotlight's truth, my tale unfolds [Chorus] This is where I'll stand, with conviction's flare On life's stage I command, in the opera's glare As the spotlight dims (dimming lights) The theater sighs, a silent crowd Masked faces all glare, awaiting the sound Like a phoenix, I'll rise, with the overture [Verse 2] Each step I take on this polished floor Another note in the symphony's roar The audience waits, caught in suspense Like warriors poised just before the fray My spirit ignites, through fear it blazes In this act of life, I will not sway Harsh lights may fade to the shadows' dance But in this final act, I'll take my chance
