[Intro – Distant Explosions / Wind / Soft Choir] Everything burns. Everything ends. I remain. ⸻ [Verse 1 – Calm / Steady] Sky split open in violent red, Cities crumble where kings once tread. War drums echo but I don’t flinch, I’ve lived inside collapse an inch at a time. Banners torn in a hurricane spin, Ash like snow on shattered men. Chain lies still at my side tonight, I don’t need it to win this fight. I was forged in noise, baptized in flame, Now silence answers to my name. While empires scream in their last breath — I walk untouched through death. ⸻ [Chorus 1 – Expansive / Heavy Undercurrent] Ember of the unbound — steady in the storm, Not chaos-driven — transformed. World fall down in catastrophic sound, I don’t drown. Ember of the unbound — no crown to defend, No master, no need to transcend. When the fire swallows ground — I’m unbound. ⸻ [Verse 2 – Controlled / Philosophical] Samurai oath turned dust in wind, Ronin rage burned out within. Shinobi shadow sharpened my sight, Now I see through wrong and right. Destruction loud, but growth is quiet, Power ain’t the loudest riot. I don’t conquer what’s meant to fall, I outlast it all. Let the heavens fracture wide, Let the oceans swallow pride. When the final trumpet sound — I won’t make a sound. ⸻ [Chorus 2 – Bigger / Layered] Ember of the unbound — calm in collapse, No need to strike, no relapse. Ash rain down without a sound, Still unbound. Ember of the unbound — forged by pain, Nothing left for me to gain. If the end comes crashing down — I don’t bow. ⸻ [Bridge – Half-Time / Explosions Rising] Cities fall. Statues break. History tremble in its wake. But inside — No quake. No chain left to break. ⸻ [Chorus 3 – Final / Massive Yet Serene] Ember of the unbound — final breath of flame, Not seeking glory, not seeking name. Samurai born. Ronin drowned. Shinobi found. Ember of the unbound — let worlds confound, Let thunder roar around. In the wreckage of crown and war — I am. No more. [Outro – Ambient / Fading Explosions → Wind + Soft Choir] (Fire crackling. Distant structures collapsing.) I chased honor — it burned. I chased freedom — it scarred. I chased power — it taught me restraint. Now I chase nothing. (Beat strips down. Just sub bass + wind.) No master above me. No enemy before me. No war inside me. The blade rests. The chain rusts. The mask falls to dust. (Soft inhale.) If the world rebuilds — It won’t be on my back. If it falls again — It won’t be because of me. (Choir swells.) Samurai was duty. Ronin was fire. Shinobi was control. I am what remains. (Wind overtakes everything.) Unbound.
