Verse I
Born where the frost breaks iron bones,
Under ash and embered skies,
A child of snow, of dragon’s ghost,
With fire buried in his eyes.
They taught him silence, taught him pain,
Named him curse before his name,
But wolves don’t beg, and wolves don’t kneel—
They rise, they bite, they claim.
Pre-Chorus
Hear the chain beneath the skin,
Hear the old Valyrian call,
Stone remembers every oath
Scratched in blood along the wall.
Chorus
So sing the Dreadwolf, iron-clad,
Ashen Maw and burning will,
Fire beneath the northern stars,
The flame endures—unbroken still.
Let kings take crowns and liars pray,
He walks where fear has always dwelled,
For when the world forgets its strength,
The Dreadwolf stands.
The flame endures.
Verse II
Steel was heavier than a crown,
Truth cut deeper than a blade,
He learned that mercy has a cost
And power must be paid.
The armor whispers, ancient, cruel,
Of brothers lost and gods denied,
But he does not drown in ghostly screams—
He makes the darkness kneel outside.
Pre-Chorus
Wolf and dragon, oath and scar,
Fate was never kind or clean,
Yet fire survives in shattered things,
And so does he.
Chorus
So sing the Dreadwolf, storm-born son,
Fifteen winters, forged in flame,
The North remembers what he is
Even if the South speaks shame.
Let swords be drawn and banners fall,
Let cowards flee, let brave men yell,
For when the night demands a price,
The Dreadwolf pays.
The flame endures.
Bridge
No hatred for the small or weak—
Only pity, cold and clear,
For power wasted on cruelty
Is the mark of lesser fear.
He does not rage, he does not boast,
He does not chase a throne,
He is the answer the dark receives
When it knocks on stone.
Final Chorus
So sing the Dreadwolf, name him true,
Not a monster—nor a god,
But what survives when worlds collapse
And truth still walks the sod.
Ash to ash and wolf to fire,
Let history learn this well:
Empires rot and crowns turn dust—
But the Dreadwolf stands.
The flame endures.
Outro (soft, almost whispered)
Remember this when fires fade
And songs are all that’s left to tell—
He was not born to end the world…
He was born
So something
Would.
