Prompt / Lyrics
[Verse 1] Under black basalt skies Gorthalon wakes in flame Iron scales, ember eyes The mountain learns his name He claws through ancient frost And breaks the old stone seam One wing splits dawn apart One breath ignites the stream [Pre-Chorus] Hear the ground begin to shake Hear the towers groan and bow Every oath the brave ones made Turns to ash below his brow [Chorus] Gorthalon, rise again Gorthalon, burn the chain Fire crown, thunder jaw King of the broken wall Gorthalon, rise again Gorthalon, take the plain When he roars, kingdoms fall Gorthalon owns it all (Gorthalon!) [Verse 2] He storms the redwood pass With gold and ruin on his back His shadow drinks the snow Then leaves a smoking track The arrowheads all bend The shields split at the seam He laughs in molten breath And turns the sky obscene [Pre-Chorus] Hear the ground begin to shake Hear the towers groan and bow Every oath the brave ones made Turns to ash below his brow [Chorus] Gorthalon, rise again Gorthalon, burn the chain Fire crown, thunder jaw King of the broken wall Gorthalon, rise again Gorthalon, take the plain When he roars, kingdoms fall Gorthalon owns it all (Gorthalon!) [Bridge] Now kneel before the storm Or stand and meet the flare The old world ends in cinders And he is still right there No blade can hold his dawn No gate can seal his sky He lifts the dark on wings And drags the fire high [Final Chorus] Gorthalon, rise again Gorthalon, burn the chain Fire crown, thunder jaw King of the broken wall Gorthalon, rise again Gorthalon, take the plain When he roars, kingdoms fall Gorthalon owns it all (Gorthalon!)

Power metal with galloping double-kick drive and soaring minor-key guitar harmonies; verse rides tight palm-muted riffs and nimble bass runs, pre-chorus opens with tom rolls and stacked gang vowels, chorus explodes in wide unison hooks and high harmony leads. Lead vocal is heroic and sharp with octave doubles, shouted gang answers, and delay throws on name hits. Wind-gong swells, reverse cymbal lifts, and choirs before the final lift. Bright, punchy, towering mix., power metal
