In the Shadows of the Cross

In distant lands, where the sun hides away, I walk alone, with faith that guides my way. I am a Templar knight, guardian of the light, In the shadows of the cross, my destiny is bright.

With shining armor and sword in hand, I face the evil, in every corner and land. The blood of the righteous, in my heart it flows, Echoes in the nights, in solemn prayers it shows.

On battlefields, where death does dance, I fight for justice, for a new chance. Each strike delivered, each tear that falls, Is a sacred vow, a soul that calls.

But darkness whispers, tries to lead me astray, With empty promises, tries to sway. I resist with courage, with unwavering faith, For I know my path is beyond debate.

And when the full moon lights up the sky, I feel the weight of the mission, the cold of the night. But in my chest burns, an eternal flame, The devotion to the cause, that never wanes.

I am a Templar knight, in night and day, My life is sacrifice, my soul is a poetic array. And even if the world becomes an abyss, I will fight till the end, with fervor and bliss.
