The Lion That Tamed Me

This AI Hard Rock song was inspired by Jesus, The Lion of Judah, coming down for me and helping me become a better man and healing my mind and heart. [Intro] I thought I was strong I thought I was free Till the mirror showed the monster That was staring back at me [Verse 1] I wore my anger like a crown of rust Built my throne out of broken trust Ran my mouth like a loaded gun Burned down love and called it fun I called it pride when I would not bend Called it truth when I wounded friends Kept my fists wrapped around my shame Till heaven came roaring and called my name [Pre-Chorus] I heard Him in the silence I felt Him in the flame Not a whisper, not a warning But a Lion calling my name [Chorus] He was the Lion that tamed me The Lion that came for me He broke through the beast I became And called me out by name He was the fire that changed me The mercy that claimed me He tore the chains from my wild heart And taught this rebel to kneel The Lion that tamed me Made the wounded man heal [Verse 2] I thought love was what I could hold Till my hands turned hard and my heart went cold I thought forgiveness was for weaker men Till grace knocked me down and raised me again I blamed the world, I blamed the pain I blamed the storm, I blamed the rain But the truth cut deep like a holy blade I was the cage that I had made [Pre-Chorus] Then I heard Him in the silence I felt Him in the flame Not a whisper, not a warning But a Lion calling my name [Chorus] He was the Lion that tamed me The Lion that came for me He broke through the beast I became And called me out by name He was the fire that changed me The mercy that claimed me He tore the chains from my wild heart And taught this rebel to kneel The Lion that tamed me Made the wounded man heal [Bridge] Not with chains around my hands Not with fear I could not stand Not by crushing who I was But by conquering me with love He took the rage I could not hide He took the war I kept inside He took the pride that made me blind And gave me back a clearer mind [Breakdown] I was running He came hunting I was raging He stood waiting I was broken He had spoken I was dying He came roaring [Final Chorus] He is the Lion that tamed me The Lion that came for me He broke through the beast I became And called me out by name He is the fire that changed me The mercy that claimed me He tore the chains from my wild heart And taught this rebel to kneel The Lion that tamed me Made the wounded man heal [Outro] I thought I was strong Till I fell to my knees Now the Lion walks beside me And His mercy runs through me
