[Intro]
Black gate open
World gone dumb
I walk in smiling
Blood on my tongue (yeah)
[Verse 1]
I was just prey
Now I tax every hunter that’s left alive
Names on a chain
Every face that laughed at me, now they kneel and cry
Step in the dark
Every step that I take makes the daylight die
Body count climbs
Every corpse that I drop is a blade on my side
[Pre-Chorus]
You hear that drag of a coffin?
That’s just my shadow line
Every soul you ever tortured
Marches under mine
[Chorus]
Arise
Get the fuck up, serve your king
Kneel to the Shadow Monarch, kiss the ring
From the ash, from the bone, from your fear-filled eyes
I point once, you die twice—bitch, arise
Arise
Feel your god turn pale and hide
I make halos crack, saints switch sides
From the pit, from the void, from the graves you prized
You belong to me now
(arise, arise)
[Verse 2]
Steel in my veins
Heart so frozen it scars when the ice chips off
Talk like a beast
I don’t bark, I just carve whole clans and I call it talk
King of the dead
Every head that you lost is a blade in my flock
Try my name once
You’ll be feeding my wolves by the city clock
[Pre-Chorus]
I don’t pray, I just punish
Every sin you tried to hide
Turn your heroes into armor
Wear their hope with pride
[Chorus]
Arise
Get the fuck up, serve your king
Kneel to the Shadow Monarch, kiss the ring
From the ash, from the bone, from your fear-filled eyes
I point once, you die twice—bitch, arise
Arise
Feel your god turn pale and hide
I make halos crack, saints switch sides
From the pit, from the void, from the graves you prized
You belong to me now
(arise, arise)
[Bridge]
One snap
Your throne turns dust
One glance
Your steel grows rust
One word
Your legends rot
Shadow in your lungs
I’m the last breath you got
[Chorus]
Arise
Get the fuck up, serve your king
Kneel to the Shadow Monarch, kiss the ring
From the ash, from the bone, from your fear-filled eyes
I point once, you die twice—bitch, arise
Arise
Feel your god turn pale and hide
I make halos crack, saints switch sides
From the pit, from the void, from the graves you prized
You belong to me now
(arise, arise)
