Flame of the Oracle
folk, Symphonic power metal meets flamenco; double-kick drums and galloping bass lock with tight rhythm guitars while neoclassical leads weave around a bright nylon-string line. Orchestra swells—strings and brass—underline operatic male vocals, with sudden half-time drops for handclaps and flamenco vocal flourishes. Big, anthemic chorus layered with choirs; bridge erupts into trading solos between electric and acoustic guitars before a final, soaring key-change reprise., power metal, orchestral, acoustic, flamenco, strong, neoclassical, vocal

Lyrics
Intro
Heel on stone
Dust in the air
Hands clap sharp
Steel draws prayer
Verse 1
I crossed the red horizon
Ash stuck to my tongue
Your name burned in the canyon
Old runes
Still young
Boot prints in a circle
Charcoal
Salt
And wine
You danced around the embers
Marked me as a sign
Chorus
Flame of the Oracle
Say my fate
Say my fate
Spin those sparks in a spiral sky
Will I rise? Will I break?
Flame of the Oracle
In your eyes I translate
Every crack in the burning coal
Spells a world I create
Verse 2
Your palms cut through the silence
Sharp turns
Sudden grace
Gold coins crash on your ankles
Storms move in your face
You sang my secret failures
Each one like a blade
Then kissed the air beside me
And every fear unmade
Chorus
Bridge
[half-time
Handclaps and stomps]
Tell me
Am I sword or scabbard?
Blessing or the wound?
Will I crash like falling granite
Or curve like a crescent moon?
electric and acoustic guitar trade rapid runs
vocals climb an octave
Brand me in fire
Mark me with light
I’ll bear your answer
Straight into night
Chorus
