Roots of Ruin
A Symphonic Gothic Metal track begins with sparse cello drones, rumbling bass, and anxious woodwinds, establishing a tense mood. Verses grow with plucked strings and haunting tenor vocals. The chorus explodes with blasting horns, heavy percussion, and harmonized vocals. Bridge swirls harps, urgent brass; finale features soft spoken word over gently fading strings.

Lyrics
Verse 1
I was born in shadows, a stranger to the flame,
Voices taunt the silence, they don’t know my name.
A whisper breaks the stillness, a call through the void,
Bound to the unknown, my innocence destroyed.
Chorus
Scream through the ashes, I rise from the fall,
Courage ignites me, I’ll shatter the wall!
Verse 2
Through the rot and ruin, I face the beast inside,
A mother’s twisted shadow, where innocence has died.
My hands grip the struggle, my heart beats the dread,
I’ll slay the nightmare, paint the silence red!
Chorus 2
Scream through the ashes, I rise from the fall,
Courage ignites me, I’ll shatter the wall!
Grief’s a cruel mistress, she tears at my soul,
But I’ll forge my own fate, take back control!
Bridge
The roots crumble beneath me, a savior lost to time,
His echo fuels my fury, a spark to climb!
Who am I beneath this mask they made?
A truth unravels, sharp as a blade!
Chorus 2
Scream through the ashes, I rise from the fall,
Courage ignites me, I’ll shatter the wall!
Grief’s a cruel mistress, she tears at my soul,
But I’ll forge my own fate, take back control!
Chorus 3
Grief’s a cruel mistress, she tears at my soul,
But I’ll forge my own fate, take back control!
Outro
From the ashes I’m born, a shadow unbound,
A voice in the chaos, my own sacred sound.
The burden’s my crown, the scars my throne,
I am the lost, the found, the unknown!
