Copper Skin and Steel Rain (वर्ज़न 2)

Intro

Copper skin beneath the floodlights

Steel rain on my open palms

Verse 1 – male baritone, half-sung half-chanted

Concrete rivers rising to my knees

Every window cracked wide with ease

My armor's smoke and heavy oil

I built this tower from a hundred miles of spoil

Pre-Chorus

Now the whole sky catches fire and gold

Nothing left for me to hold

Chorus – massive cinematic choir, layered chorus with massive reverb tail

Rise like steel against the open sky

This is my city when it burns so high

Every tower a shield that I design

Copper skin against the rising line

I am the lightning in every wire

Nothing left for me to retire

Verse 2 – male baritone, half-sung half-chanted

Static runs from wrist to chest to spine

This is not a war that I decline

I own every shadow on this street

Every heartbeat that refuses defeat

Pre-Chorus

Now the whole sky catches fire and gold

Nothing left for me to hold

Chorus – massive cinematic choir, layered chorus with massive reverb tail

Rise like steel against the open sky

This is my city when it burns so high

Every tower a shield that I design

Copper skin against the rising line

I am the lightning in every wire

Nothing left for me to retire

Bridge – heavy analog polysynth, deep 808 bass, Viking war horns

Let it burn until the sun comes up

This is not a prayer, this is my grip

Outro

Steel rain on my open palms

Copper skin beneath the floodlights
