Prompt:

(Verse 1 ) The barn doors blew open, the roof started shaking The salt lines were broken, the floorboards were breaking Dean stood with a blade, ready to make a stand But you walked through the bullets, a tie and a trench coat A trench coat and a tie. "I'm the one who gripped you tight and raised you from perdition" A soldier of the Lord, executing the mission No emotions allowed, just a warrior of grace Staring blankly ahead at a human face. (Chorus) Oh, Castiel, you chose to be free Cast down the chains of your own destiny You shattered the mold, broke Chuck’s grand design Rewriting the script and crossing the line From the horrors of Lucifer’s cage to the Mark’s heavy strain You stood through the fire, you fought through the pain! (Verse 2 ) But the orders from upstairs started feeling wrong They wanted the apocalypse, they’d planned it all along You looked at Dean Winchester, looked at his brother Sam And you chose humanity, you gave up the grand plan You threw down your badge, you bled for the cause Fought your own siblings, broke Heaven’s laws Banished by your family, cut off from the light A fallen angel learning how to survive the night. (Chorus) Oh, Castiel, you chose to be free Cast down the chains of your own destiny You shattered the mold, broke Chuck’s grand design Rewriting the script and crossing the line From the horrors of Lucifer’s cage to the Mark’s heavy strain You stood through the fire, you fought through the pain! (Verse 3 ) Then the vacuum of power left a hole in your head You wanted to save them, but you broke them instead Absorbed the Purgatory souls, declared yourself the new God Struck down the hypocrites, ruled with an iron rod But the Leviathans tore you apart from the inside out Left you washed up on a beach, filled with madness and doubt When you finally came to, you took Sam’s mental pain And you vanished in the shadows of the Purgatory rain. (Bridge 1 ) Fought your way out, but Metatron had a scheme He took away your grace, woke you up from the dream No wings, no power, just a stomach that growled A regular man while the monsters howled You learned how to sleep, you learned how to bleed Finding out what it means to have a human need. But a soldier can’t rest when the universe breaks You took back some grace, whatever it takes. (Verse 4 ) Then the Darkness arose, and the options were slim So you said "yes" to Lucifer, let the devil right in Until you broke the chains and stepped back through the door Then came Jack, the Nephilim boy, a power so wild You promised his mother you’d protect that child You became a father, found a brand new spark But a knife through the heart sent you straight to the Empty's dark. (Chorus) Oh, Castiel, you chose to be free Cast down the chains of your own destiny You shattered the mold, broke Chuck’s grand design Rewriting the script and crossing the line From the horrors of Lucifer’s cage to the Mark’s heavy strain You stood through the fire, you fought through the pain! (Verse 5 ) Jack brought you back, but the peace didn’t last Chuck was writing the ending, erasing the past The cosmic entity was waiting, it had made you a deal The moment you're truly happy, the shadow comes to steal And the world was fading, Chuck was wiping the slate Death was at the bunker door, sealing up your fate. (Bridge 2 ) You looked at Dean, knew there was no way out No time left for hesitation, no time left for doubt You told him what he meant, how he changed your whole design How loving him changed the world, crossing every line You achieved your happiness in the final words you said The shadow opened up, and the portal turned red. (Outro ) (Tempo drops, music strips down, The mood is heavy, mournful, and quiet.) A handprint of blood on a jacket sleeve A final goodbye before you had to leave Gone in the shadow, where the forgotten souls eternally sleep Dean stood alone in the silence of the room Left with the echo of your sudden doom An angel of the Lord, swallowed by the night Giving up your existence just to win the fight… (rumbling bass swell begins. A sudden, massive drum hit breaks the silence. The music explodes into an epic, cinematic orchestral rock finale—triumphant,soaring, and powerful.) But the story didn't end in the void of the black! Because the boy you raised was never gonna hold back! Jack took the throne, the new God on high He looked down at the Empty with a fire in his eye! And he reached his golden hands right into that dark place! He broke through the curse, he shattered the chains He pulled Castiel out of the silence and the pains! No more sleeping in the mud, no more fading away He dragged his father up into the glorious day! Together they stood, side by side, hand in hand Rewriting the stars, rebuilding the land! They fixed up the sky, they opened the gate No more rooms of isolation, no more twisted fate! A beautiful new Heaven where the brothers can ride With the angel who loved them watching over them
