Verdict Is Yours

Intro

Oh

Mm-hmm

Drop

Say it loud when the verdict is yours

Say it loud when the verdict is yours

Verse 1

You wore the robe

A borrowed crown on a borrowed throne

Called it righteous when the ruling fed your name

Now the scale tips the other way

Sudden silence in your throat

Tell me how your principles hold

When holding them costs you everything you own

Pre-Chorus

Easy to cheer when the win is mine

Easy to swear when the oath is kind

Chorus

But what do you do when it cuts you

What do you do when it bleeds you

Truth is a weight you don't carry for free

So what do you do when it cuts you

Drop

Say it loud when the verdict is yours

Say it loud when the verdict is yours

Verse 2

Picture the room

Empty chairs and a hollow gavel

Every ally turning, filing out the door

You can preach it from the pulpit

Till the pulpit burns beneath your feet

Faith is a fragile little thing

When the fire finally reaches your street

Pre-Chorus

Easy to cheer when the win is mine

Easy to swear when the oath is kind

Chorus

But what do you do when it cuts you

What do you do when it bleeds you

Truth is a weight you don't carry for free

So what do you do when it cuts you

Bridge

Strip the title

Strip the praise

Strip the safety net away

Stand there bare and tell me now

Tell me now

Breakdown

Principles or profit

Principles or pride

Pick a side

Pick a side

Chorus

What do you do when it cuts you

What do you do when it bleeds you

Truth is a weight you don't carry for free

So what do you do when it cuts you

Drop

Say it loud when the verdict is yours

Say it loud when the verdict is yours
