Prompt / Lyrics
INTRO – EGYPTIAN CHOIR (slow, echoing) Aaah — oh — aaah Eeee — aaah — oh Aaah — aaah — aaah (voices circle, no words yet) VERSE 1 – ACCORDION LEADS (slow, dragging breath) Sand in my lungs History on my tongue Stone gods watching me breathe Like they already know what I’ve done River runs red with the weight of time Pharaoh bones under city grime I ain’t chosen but I still survive So I walk like a curse that won’t resign Accordion cries like a widow at dawn Bellows wheezing like something’s wrong Every step I take feels borrowed From a past that never moved on PRE-CHORUS – LOW CHOIR HUM Mmm — mmm — aaah Mmm — mmm — aaah CHORUS – HARMONICA + CHOIR (call & response) (Harmonica wails — dry, lonely) Waaaah — waaaah Choir: Aaah — we remember Ohhh — the debt you owe Lead: I don’t pray for mercy I pray they let me go (Harmonica answers, bending notes) Waaah — waaah Choir (higher now): Eeee — walk the river Aaah — carry the load VERSE 2 – ACCORDION RHYTHMIC, DARKER I seen crowns turn into chains Gold rot under the sun Power ain’t loud — it’s patient Like it already won Names carved deep in the stone All forgotten just the same So if history eats its children Why you surprised I came feral from pain Accordion stutters like a failing heart Breathing in dust, breathing in scars I don’t fear gods that bleed like men I fear the silence after they depart BRIDGE – FULL EGYPTIAN CHOIR (ritual chant) Aaah — aaah — aaah Eeee — eeee — oh Aaah — aaah — aaah (Nile rises, drums faint in distance) BREAK – HARMONICA SOLO (long, crying bends) No words Just breath and grief Like the desert screaming Through metal lungs FINAL CHORUS – EVERYTHING COLLIDES Choir (deep): Ohhh — judgment walks with you Lead: I ain’t innocent I’m just still true Choir (high): Eeee — the scales don’t lie Lead: Neither do I (Harmonica cuts through like a knife) WAAAAH Accordion answers, faster now All: If I’m damned Then damn me loud If I’m spared Then spare me proud OUTRO – WHISPERED CHOIR Aaah — remember Ohhh — remember Eeee — remember
