Great Kwakuz forever

[Spoken Intro]
For every road that tried to turn us back—
we kept the name we chose.

[Verse 1]
The old hall clock was losing time,
Rain wrote its map across the glass.
You pinned our promise to your coat
And walked beside me through the pass.
They made their lists, they drew their lines,
They called our changing selves a flaw.
You took my hand beneath their signs:
“We are not theirs to name at all.”

[Pre-Chorus]
When every door was measured shut,
You found the hinge, you found the way.
I heard you say it plain and low—
“We choose each other. We can stay.”

[Chorus]
Great Kwakuz, forever—keep the vow,
Through every turn, through every weather.
No borrowed rule can bind us now;
We make a home and hold together.
Great Kwakuz, forever—say it clear,
Let every ordered wall remember:
I am still myself, and you are here;
We stand as one, and not surrender.

[Verse 2]
The forms came back with boxes crossed,
A clerk kept tapping at the page.
You laughed, then signed the truest word
And left the room without their cage.
At dawn we took the eastern train,
Two paper cups, one battered case.
You leaned your head against the pane;
I saw our future in your face.

[Pre-Chorus]
When every door was measured shut,
You found the hinge, you found the way.
I heard you say it plain and low—
“We choose each other. We can stay.”

[Chorus]
Great Kwakuz, forever—keep the vow,
Through every turn, through every weather.
No borrowed rule can bind us now;
We make a home and hold together.
Great Kwakuz, forever—say it clear,
Let every ordered wall remember:
I am still myself, and you are here;
We stand as one, and not surrender.

[Bridge]
Ты рядом — я не исчезаю.
Я выбираю быть собой.
Пускай они решают правила —
Мы сами выбрали дорогу.

[Final Chorus]
Great Kwakuz, forever—keep the vow,
Through every turn, through every weather.
No borrowed rule can bind us now;
We make a home and hold together.
Great Kwakuz, forever—say it clear,
Let every ordered wall remember:
I am still myself, and you are here;
We stand as one, and not surrender.

[Outro]
You are here.
I am myself.
Great Kwakuz, forever.
