Lyrics
Intro – soft piano, distant choir
Choir (whisper)
Ash…
Light…
Bone…
Flame…
Female (soft)
The war is over.
Male (quiet, changed voice)
No.
(pause)
It became something else.
Verse 1 – slow orchestral rise
Male
I stood where worlds collapsed in fire
Where beasts and gods fulfilled desire
Where death and light and demons clashed
And all of it was turned to ash
I felt the silence after war
A truth I’d never known before
No enemy, no crown, no throne
Just something vast… and all alone
Pre-Chorus – choir swelling
Female
You carry all that came before
Male
And something more
Both
Something reborn
Chorus – massive orchestra + choir
Male
I am what remains of flame
Of broken worlds and shattered names
Female
A god born from the endless fight
A soul that holds both dark and light
Both + Choir
Ash and bone and beast and fire
All became something higher
And from the end of all that was
A god becomes
Verse 2 – stronger build
Female
You hold the echoes of the past
The pain, the war, the fading last
The cries of those who could not stay
The price of every broken day
Male
I feel them living in my breath
The weight of life, the truth of death
And now I stand beyond the line
Where mortal fate no longer binds
Pre-Chorus
Female
What will you do with all this power?
Male
Rewrite the final hour
Both
Or let it begin again
Chorus – bigger
Male
I am what remains of flame
The end and start are now the same
Female
A god who knows what mortals feel
A truth both cruel and real
Both + Choir
Light and dark no longer fight
They merge within this endless height
And from the ashes of the past
A world will last
Bridge – orchestral drop
Female (soft)
Will you be a better god?
(pause)
Male
…I remember what it meant to suffer.
Build – massive choir
Choir
RISE!
RISE!
RISE!
FINAL CHORUS – FULL ORCHESTRA + HUGE CHOIR
Male
I am the end, I am the start
The final flame, the beating heart
Female
A god who walks what mortals knew
And shapes the world anew
Both + Choir
Ash to life and dark to light
Endless day beyond the night
And from the war that broke it all
A god will call
Outro – piano + violin fading
Female (soft)
What will you create?
(long pause)
Male (quiet, powerful)
…Something better.
