Verse 1
Wake up to the sirens in a steel gray dawn
Another broken promise, another kingdom gone
Marching through the wreckage with a clenched‑jaw grin
Halo made of razor wire biting through the skin
Pre‑Chorus
Every lie you sold me, carved into my bones
Hear the cracking thunder as I take the throne
Chorus
Ashes of the iron crown
Raining on a burning town
You built your empire on our backs
Now feel the teeth of the counterattack
From the dirt we rise, no masters now
Ashes of the iron crown
Verse 2
Poison in the water, static in the veins
Voices getting louder, breaking out of chains
Idols made of concrete start to shake and split
Carved into the monument: “We will not submit”
Pre‑Chorus 2
Every scar you gave us turns to sharpened steel
Hear the war drums pounding, this is how it feels
Chorus
Ashes of the iron crown
Raining on a burning town
You built your empire on our backs
Now feel the teeth of the counterattack
From the dirt we rise, no masters now
Ashes of the iron crown
Bridge (Breakdown)
No gods
No kings
Just the chaos that freedom brings
No flags
No chains
Just the thunder inside our veins
Final Chorus (extended)
Ashes of the iron crown
Raining on a burning town
You lit the fuse, now watch it spread
A sea of fists above your head
From the dirt we rise, no masters now
Sing it as your walls come down
All your legacies melting to the ground
Ashes of the iron crown
