Shiv - Way Of The Cross (Official Music) Christian Hard Rapcore / Metalcore

“Way of The Cross” is a dark, cinematic Christian hard rapcore/metalcore track that follows the path of Christ’s suffering and connects it with the inner battles of a broken, guilty soul. The lyrics move between brutal imagery and deep spirituality, showing Jesus carrying the cross while the narrator carries shame, fear, and sin. Each fall of Christ becomes a mirror of human weakness, and each step forward becomes a lesson in perseverance, faith, and redemption. Aggressive rap verses and heavy breakdowns express pain, judgment, and struggle, while the chorus rises as a powerful declaration of hope: even in dust, blood, and silence, Christ’s sacrifice breaks chains and calls the listener to new life. The song is both a meditation on the Stations of the Cross and a testimony that no matter how heavy the burden, no one walks this road alone.

Lyrics:

Weight on my neck like a sentence
Breath tastes like dust and repentance
Crowd in my skull screaming guilty
Hands in the air but Im empty
Trip on my past hit the pavement
Blood in the prayers that Im saying
I see a Man in the silence
Shoulders bent low but defiant
Wood in His hands world on His back
Love getting torn but never cracks
If He kept walking when hope was gone
Then I keep moving when life goes wrong

First fall to the ground knees in the stone
Mocking like echoes Youre on your own
A mothers eyes cut through the crowd
Pain without words but screaming loud
Thorns in His head doubt in my brain
Same kind of fire different kind of pain
They strip Him bare take His name
Like when Im judged and buried in shame
But every step He refuses to flee
Teaching my fear how to walk with belief

Nails in the mind
Fear in the bones
Still hear a voice saying
Youre not alone

Lift the cross upon your back
Walk the road He walked in pain
Fall in dust but look to Christ
He rose to break your chains
See the scars in open hands
Still reaching from the tree
Out of death He calls your name
Come and live in Me

Whips draw lines like a map of grace
Every stripe screaming I took your place
Third fall heavy lungs on fire
Love still louder than human desire
A stranger steps in helps Him stand
Like when Im saved by another hand
Shame in the light no place to hide
Same way my secrets get crucified
But He keeps walking doesnt turn
Shows me how to live with what Ive learned

Spit in His face He answered with mercy
Nailed to a tree He still called me worthy
If thats the road that true love chose
Ill walk it bleeding but never alone

Hammer drops time splits in two
Iron through flesh for the sins I knew
Hands pinned open sky goes mute
Like my prayers when Im out of truth
They lift Him high between earth and God
A bridge made of blood pain and a cross
Every breath costs every word is a war
Still He whispers love through a torn up core

Father forgive them
They dont know what they do

Forgive the hands that drove the nails
Forgive the mouths that screamed Your name
Forgive the fear the hate the lies
Forgive the ones who chose the dark

Forgive
Forgive

It is finished

Nails in the mind
Fire in the bones
From the dead quiet I hear
Youre not alone

Lift the cross upon your back
Walk the road He walked in pain
Fall in dust but look to Christ
He rose to break your chains
See the scars in open hands
Still reaching from the tree
Out of death He calls your name
Come and live in Me
