[Intro – Low distorted chant]
You can’t stop the dark…
You can only become it.
⸻
[Verse 1 – Controlled but intense]
Seven names carved in my mind,
Seven graves I left behind,
Silver ash and fractured spine,
Every loss rewrote the line.
The throne lies broken at my feet,
But broken crowns don’t fix defeat,
The black sun hums beneath my skin —
Not hunger now.
Purpose within.
Lucien says, “Now you see.”
Darius won’t look at me.
Mira whispers, “This isn’t free.”
But freedom never was.
Mercy died in Seris’ fall,
Hope cracked in the marble hall,
If love can’t save us at all —
Then what remains?
⸻
[Chorus 1 – Heavy, rising]
Eclipse of the black flame burning,
No more doubt returning,
Ash in the wind still turning —
But I stand unshaken.
Seven under hollow sky,
No more asking why,
If the light refused to try —
Then I’ll replace it.
⸻
[Verse 2 – Full transformation]
Enemy forces flood the square,
See the void inside my stare,
Steel swings wide but I don’t care —
Their fear tastes like air.
I move slow — controlled and clean,
Not rage now — something serene,
Black fire sharp and crystalline —
Violence refined.
Valen’s laugh still echoes faint,
Seris’ smile in memory paint,
Every ghost that I can’t save —
Lives inside this flame.
Lucien kneels — not in fear,
But in awe of what stands here,
Says, “The eclipse is finally clear.”
And I don’t deny it.
⸻
[Chorus 2 – Bigger, darker]
Eclipse of the black flame rising,
No more compromise disguising,
If fate demands tyrannizing —
Then let it bow.
Seven flames but one burns cold,
Not red, not gold,
If this is what the prophecy told —
It’s happening now.
⸻
[Bridge – Metal Rap Breakdown]
(Guitars crush in)
YOU WANTED A SAVIOR —
I GAVE YOU WAR.
YOU WANTED MERCY —
THERE IS NO MORE.
YOU BUILT THE CAGE
YOU LIT THE PYRE
NOW WATCH ME ASCEND
AS LIVING FIRE.
NO GODS ABOVE.
NO THRONE BELOW.
ONLY THE FLAME
THAT I CONTROL.
(SCREAM)
BURN WITH ME.
⸻
[Chorus 3 – Final, dominant]
Eclipse of the black flame complete,
No more weakness in defeat,
If the world falls at my feet —
Let it.
Seven graves behind my name,
Every loss became this flame,
If history forgets the blame —
They’ll remember
The eclipse.
⸻
[Outro – Transition]
The throne is ash.
The kingdom fractures.
Five flames remain…
And they must decide.
Stand with me —
Or burn.
