[Intro – Choir / Atmosphere]
(Whispers layered)
Requiem… requiem…
⸻
[Verse 1 – Rap]
Moon hang low like a verdict call
City of ghosts in a crimson sprawl
Every step make the past stand tall
But I don’t bow to it at all
Names I lost in the echo chamber
Pain carved deep but it made me braver
Built my throne from the fallen saviors
Now I stand where the dark turns stranger
Heartbeat sync with a war drum roll
Graveyard sky but I own my soul
Every fracture made me whole
From the void I rose
⸻
[Chorus 1 – Huge / Cinematic]
This is my nightmare requiem
Choir of fire within
Every shadow I’ve ever been
Now answers when I step in
Hear the heavens tremble thin
Feel the reckoning begin
If I fall, I fall as king
Crowned in everything
⸻
[Verse 2 – Aggressive Groove]
Black rain fall but it don’t baptize
Just sharpen the flame in my eyes
Every demon I recognize
As a mirror in disguise
Internal rhythm — battle cry
808 like the end times
Guitars scream in overdrive
While the old me dies
I don’t pray for a softer end
I don’t beg and I don’t pretend
From the ruin I ascend
Again. And again.
⸻
[Chorus 2 – Stronger]
This is my nightmare requiem
No mercy left within
Every wound I carried in
Turns to discipline
Let the skyline cave me in
I’ll rewrite the hymn
If I fall, I fall as storm
Then rise again
⸻
[Breakdown – FULL SCREAM / HEAVY]
(Drop — crushing guitars)
BURN —
THE —
CROWN
LET IT MELT INTO THE GROUND
NO —
MORE —
CHAINS
ONLY FIRE IN MY VEINS
I AM
THE STORM
YOU FEARED
I AM
THE VOICE
YOU HEARD
THIS IS NOT
MY END
THIS IS
ASCENT
⸻
[Final Chorus 3 – Grand / Orchestral Explosion]
This is my nightmare requiem
From the dark I ascend
Every fracture, every sin
Led me here in the end
Choirs rise in the wind
Ash and light intertwine within
If I fall, I fall immortal
Then begin again
Outro – (After Final Chorus)
(Choir sustaining. Drums slow. Guitars ringing out.)
From the ruins I rise alone
No more fear in the undertone
Every scar that the night has shown
Turned to marrow inside my bones
Let the sky fall piece by piece
I am war. I am peace.
Every chain now released
In the silence beneath
(Choir swells louder)
This was never a requiem
For the man I used to be
It was a warning —
To the world
That tried to bury me.
(Inhale… heavy drum hit)
I am the echo
After the scream
I am the end —
Of the nightmare’s dream.
(Massive final chord. Choir sustains. Cut to silence.)
