Prompt / Lyrics
[Intro- Pure cinematic atmosphere. A haunting, solitary cello plays a mournful melody. Slowly, a deep, synthetic sub-bass begins to pulse like a heartbeat. The sound of rain hitting a glass window echoes in the background.] [Verse 1- slow, sultry trap beat kicks in. The cello is joined by a dark, pulsing synthesizer. No guitars yet.] A gilded cage on the seventy-first floor. He bought your silence, then he deadbolted the door. A silver tongue breathing designer smoke, He loves the way that the diamond makes you choke. Sleeping on a bed of his hoarded gold, A cold-blooded reptile, calculating and old. But I’m standing in the lobby, soaking wet in the rain, I’m here to sever the chain. [Pre-Chorus- The orchestra swells. A frantic, staccato violin section builds rapid tension beneath the trap beat. The heavy guitars start to slide and scrape in the background.] I’m cutting the cameras, I’m breaching the floor! Kicking the teeth out of his private doors! He thinks you’re a trophy he can keep in the dark, But I brought the matches to ignite the spark! [Chorus- Absolute cinematic devastation. Towering, drop-tuned power chords hit simultaneously with a massive brass section (like the Inception horn) and soaring string choir. It feels like a stadium shaking.] So let the empire burn to the ground! I’m tearing the penthouse down! He breathes his fire just to keep you afraid, But I walked through hell just to sharpen the blade! Take my hand, step over the glass! Watch the king of the skyline collapse! We’re leaving the dragon to drown. I'm tearing the penthouse down! [Verse- the heavy guitars cut instantly. Just a filthy, distorted bassline, the trap beat, and a sinister, pizzicato (plucked) string section.] He’s got his security, his men in the suits, But I’m ripping his kingdom right up by the roots. Venom in his veins, spilling out on the marble, Words turning to panic, starting to garble. He tried to consume you, keep you under the spell, But I am the reaper he summoned from hell! [Chorus- The colossal, orchestral metalcore wall of sound slams back in.] So let the empire burn to the ground! I’m tearing the penthouse down! He breathes his fire just to keep you afraid, But I walked through hell just to sharpen the blade! Take my hand, step over the glass! Watch the king of the skyline collapse! We’re leaving the dragon to drown. I'm tearing the penthouse down! [Bridge- the beat drops out completely. Just the haunting cello from the intro, playing alone. Slowly, a rhythmic, marching drum beat starts. A massive choir begins chanting in Latin.] Look at him bleed. He’s just a man. Look at him bleed. He’s just a man! HE'S JUST A MAN! I’LL TEAR THE scales FROM HIS FUCKING eyes! [Breakdown] TEAR THE scales! WATCH THE tower FALL! NO more CHAINS! I WILL break THEM ALL! I AM THE FIRE I AM THE PAIN! Take my hand, step over the glass! WATCH THE skyline collapse! He breathes fire just to keep you afraid, I went through hell just to sharpen the blade!
