[Intro]
Shadow in my eyes
Ink on my soul
Laugh in the dark
Let the world fold
[Verse 1]
Cloak on my back, that’s the battle flag
Circle of blades and a body bag
Reaper on my right hand, counting debts
Demons on my left, never second guess
Blood moon grinning on the cracked concrete
Footsteps echo while the saints retreat
Every little scar is a loaded spell
I been carving my initials in the gates of hell
[Chorus]
Empire of chaos, this is how we rise
Burn another halo, watch it vaporize
Chaos is what we chose, it’s how we get by
I laugh like I lost my mind, dead in my eyes
Empire of chaos, carved into my chest
Reaper on my right side, demons on my left
Can’t nobody stop this anger I have felt
We rule from the ashes, crown made of hell
[Verse 2]
They pray that I change, but I bite that prayer
Turn faith into fangs, leave it torn in the air
Whole world shaking when I crack my neck
Got a pact with the dark, that’s a lifetime check
Heart been frozen since the first backstab
Now I wear that pain like a warhead tab
Every nightmare I survived, that’s fuel
You call it madness, I call it my rule
[Bridge]
[low vocal register]
Who gonna judge me here?
Graves don’t talk, they stare
I built a throne from fear
Sat down and torched the chair
[crescendo]
Hands to the sky, let the curses fly
If you stand in my path, you were meant to die
[Chorus]
