Prompt / Lyrics
[Intro] [Long guitar build Lone melody] Cold wind on the hill Ash in the air Old runes in the soil Something wakes there [Verse 1] Bare feet on the frost Blood on the stone I carry every name Carved in my bones Torches in a ring Smoke in my lungs Hear the hidden drums Under my tongue [Chorus] Raise the crown of antlers high Let the forest hear our cry (hey!) We were never born to kneel We were iron We were steel From the embers From the pyre Feed the roots and stoke the fire Let the earth beneath us know We rise We roar We grow [Verse 2] Black bark Silver eyes Stare through the night Old gods in the dark Hungry for fight I don't fear the flame I don't fear the fall I was built from bark Stone and alcohol (hey!) [Chorus] Raise the crown of antlers high Let the forest hear our cry We were never born to kneel We were iron We were steel From the embers From the pyre Feed the roots and stoke the fire Let the earth beneath us know We rise We roar We grow [Bridge] Skies split open Thunder speaks my name Spit that omen Right back at the flame If the world turns Let it turn through me If the chains burn Let them snap Set us free (woah) [Chorus] Raise the crown of antlers high Let the forest hear our cry We were never born to kneel We were iron We were steel From the embers From the pyre Feed the roots and stoke the fire Let the earth beneath us know We rise We roar We grow

metal, Epic pagan metal with a long cinematic guitar intro: clean tremolo-picked motifs that swell into harmonized leads, then slam into downtuned rhythm guitars and thundering toms. Male vocals that shift from harsh growls in the verses to soaring, raw melodic hooks in the chorus. Double-kick drives the hype, gang shouts on key lines, and a mid-song breakdown opens into a triumphant final chorus.
