Kings of ash (έκδοση 2)

Verse 1 – male vocal

Poles set burning in the iron sky

Amber light on ashen stone

Every step takes me back home

I was born into this fire, I was bred for this fight

I'll follow nothing but my own heart's spark

No king's name called me here, no lord's command

Just the drum and the flame in my hand

Bodies moving like a single tide

Skin slick with the heat we've made

Every face I see is a brother, every voice is my own name

We are kings of ash, we dance until the sun turns gold

Our shadows stretch across the city's walls, our voices never grow old

I know the weight of every single heart that beats

But nothing can stop us now, nothing breaks these chains

Pre-Chorus

Let the embers turn to light

Feel it rising up tonight

Ashes burning in my veins

We'll keep this fire till the end of time

Chorus – male vocal, answered by soaring ethereal female lead

Kings of ash! Kings of ash!

Dancing on the city's shoulders, we don't know how to fall

Every step is a declaration, every breath is a call

We are kings of ash, we rule this land till dawn breaks through

Nothing can erase what we create here tonight, nothing touches what we've built in blood and flame

Verse 2

Sirens screaming down the darkened streets

Tires screeching on the burning beat

Every door is open to our hands, every window wide

We're not asking for a second chance, we won't be denied

Our hearts are iron, unbroken still

Nothing cuts us down, nothing holds us back till the fight's fulfilled

I see your face in every single light that burns

Together we will paint this city with every color and each scar that we've learned

Pre-Chorus

Let the embers turn to light

Feel it rising up tonight

Ashes burning in my veins

We'll keep this fire till the end of time

Chorus – male vocal, answered by soaring ethereal female lead

Kings of ash! Kings of ash!

Dancing on the city's shoulders, we don't know how to fall

Every step is a declaration, every breath is a call

We are kings of ash, we rule this land till dawn breaks through

Nothing can erase what we create here tonight, nothing touches what we've built in blood and flame

Bridge – male vocal

Not just ashes. This is fire.

This is our own heartbeat, not some distant desire.

I don't need to see the sun come up, I know we win tonight.

Every single one of us is a burning light.

Nothing breaks what we've made together, nothing takes this from my chest.

I'll keep dancing till it's just ash, but this is where I'm at best.

We're not running out of time. We are the ones who rise above.

This is our own war song, written in smoke and blood and love.

Chorus – male vocal, answered by soaring ethereal female lead

Kings of ash! Kings of ash!

Dancing on the city's shoulders, we don't know how to fall

Every step is a declaration, every breath is a call

We are kings of ash, we rule this land till dawn breaks through

Nothing can erase what we create here tonight, nothing touches what we've built in blood and flame
