Prompt / Lyrics
[Verse 1] I was never supposed to survive Let alone find myself and thrive Among smokestacks clawing the sky Where brass machines refuse to die In the city of vast brass and fire You have learned to fear my ire Steam clouds rolling through the night Copper towers burning bright The engine heart beats like an unearthly drum The ruthless rhythm and unearthly hum Iron veins beneath the street Mark the pulse beneath my feet They said the city eats the meek That no one lasts beyond a week But I learned the rules of steel Now the whole machine I wield [Chorus] Now I’ve seen you in my lens No more time to play pretend Once you’re caught inside my scope You should abandon all your hope One clean shot is all I need For the hunt to now succeed The cogs turn as you bleed Tick, tick, tick — Your time has come [Verse 2] Iron hooves strike sparks below Through the copper lantern glow My mechanical horse cuts the night Running silent through the light Pistons breathing steady steam Like a predator unseen Steel reins tight within my hand No one outruns where I stand High above the rooftops crawl Through the fog I watch it all Through the smoke and burning coal Your shadow moves — I take control I’m a skilled hunter Through the gears and thunder Every target every trail Tracked through smoke and iron rail [Chorus] Now I’ve seen you in my lens No more time to play pretend Once you’re caught inside my scope You should abandon all your hope One clean shot is all I need For the hunt to now succeed The cogs turn as you bleed Tick, tick, tick — Your time has come [Bridge] Cogs turn — pistons pound Iron thunder shakes the ground Steam valves scream, the gears ignite Engines roar into the night Metal hearts begin to race No more shadows left to chase Hear the grinding titan cry As the sky splits open wide Tick — the clock begins to spin Tick — the hunt is closing in Tick — the hammer starts to fall Now the machine consumes it all [Verse 3] From the towers to the rails Through the smoke and iron trails Every alley every gate Leads you closer to your fate I’ll hunt you down see the deed is done Who you think you’re running from? Every bolt and turning gear Whispers that the end is near Scopes aligned beneath the moon Your last breath will follow soon In the city built of flame They all remember my name I was never meant to live Now I’m everything they fear Through the steam and through the fire I am judgment drawing near [Chorus] Now I’ve seen you in my lens No more time to play pretend Once you’re caught inside my scope You should abandon all your hope One clean shot is all I need For the hunt to now succeed The cogs turn as you bleed Tick, tick, tick — Your time has come
