"Judgment calls.
Verse 1:
Footsteps echo in the marble halls,
Whispers slither down the gilded walls.
Ink-stained hands and pockets deep,
Built their kingdom while we were asleep.
They signed the papers, sold the land,
Fed the vultures with greedy hands.
Now the sky is turning red,
Their house of lies, a tangled thread.
Pre-Chorus:
They hear the drums, they hear the sound,
The reckoning is coming ‘round.
No more deals, no more escape,
Their time is up, they sealed their fate.
Chorus:
Run, run, the wolves are at your door,
You can’t hide behind the laws no more.
The masks are cracking, truth is out,
The crowd is screaming, hear them shout.
Ohhh, the judgment calls.
Verse 2:
The smoke and mirrors start to fade,
The vaults are bare, the debts unpaid.
Bloodstained ledgers, crooked ties,
Towering thrones built on hollow lies.
Once they dined on gold and wine,
Now they choke on dust and time.
Their silver tongues won’t buy their grace,
No shadow left, no hiding place.
Pre-Chorus:
They hear the drums, they hear the sound,
The reckoning is coming ‘round.
No more deals, no more escape,
Their time is up, they sealed their fate.
Chorus:
Run, run, the wolves are at your door,
You can’t hide behind the laws no more.
The masks are cracking, truth is out,
The crowd is screaming, hear them shout.
Ohhh, the judgment calls.
Bridge:
The gavel slams, the towers fall,
No one answers when they call.
Candlelight fades in empty rooms,
The empire sinking in its tomb.
Final Chorus:
Run, run, but there’s nowhere to go,
The hands of justice move too slow.
But time has turned, the end is near,
Their own deception bred their fear.
Ohhh, the judgment calls.
Outro:
Footsteps echo in the marble halls,
No one left to hear their calls.
