[Intro – 8s, dawn over ruins]
Narrator (soft):
One year of rebuilding.
One year of waiting.
Tonight—the end finally shows its face.
⸻
[Verse 1 – Isaiah | 30s]
A year taught me patience, taught me pain,
How to stand in silence, how to aim,
City learned to walk without fear,
Learned heroes don’t disappear.
I carry the fallen, I carry the cost,
Every promise paid, every loss,
You ruled the night, you fed on doubt—
But I stayed when the lights went out.
Villain (weak laugh):
You learned well…
Too well.
⸻
[Pre-Chorus – Back & Forth | 12s]
Villain:
You finally became what you hated.
Isaiah:
No—I became what you couldn’t control.
Villain:
Power always corrupts.
Isaiah:
Only when fear’s the goal.
⸻
[Chorus – Clash | 25s]
Villain:
You think this ends with me on the floor?
Isaiah:
It ends when you hurt us no more.
Villain:
The city will always need night.
Isaiah:
Then let it choose its light.
Both:
Say it loud, hear the truth arrive—
Tyrants fall.
People survive.
⸻
[Verse 2 – Villain (fading) | 25s]
I bent the city, cracked its spine,
Taught it peace was a thin straight line,
But you stood firm where others ran,
Turned belief into a plan.
I hated that…
Loved it too.
You’re proof my end was overdue.
Isaiah (steady):
You don’t get redemption.
Just an ending.
⸻
[Bridge – Final Exchange | 15s]
Villain:
Tell me—
When the crowds stop chanting your name…
Who do you think fills the space?
Isaiah:
No one.
That’s the point.
⸻
[Beat Drop – Villain collapses | 3s silence]
⸻
[Final Verse – Revelation | 25s]
Villain (final breath, smiling):
You never saw it… did you?
Power hates a vacuum.
While you were building tomorrow—
I crowned today.
Marco doesn’t want the city safe…
He wants it obedient.
Isaiah (shaken):
Marco…?
Villain (last whisper):
He learned from the best.
⸻
[Final Chorus – Isaiah | 30s]
So let the night hear me clear and calm,
I’ll face what’s next with open palms,
You ended here, but the fight goes on,
I won’t pretend the dark is gone.
If a new shadow wears a friend’s face,
I won’t look away, I won’t hesitate,
The city stands—not blind, not small—
We don’t kneel to villains at all.
⸻
[Outro – 12s, ominous resolve]
(Sirens fade into a low pulse.)
Isaiah (quiet, determined):
Marco…
If you’re listening—
I’m ready.
Narrator:
The villain is gone.
But the war…
Has changed its name.
