Forsaken

FORSAKEN

VERSE 1
I’ll burn your kingdom to the ground before I reach my long goodnight
and from the embers I will crown a new born King.
For years, you have deceived while you bathed within the light
and now the shadows of your past are closing in.

VERSE 2
Can you feel my enslavement?
Born to ride but stuck on the pavement
No more lies
The mortar cracks, and up I rise
A Phoenix in the wind.


CHORUS
We are the forsaken ones
The children of the meek
We remain unshaken
We are strong.

We are the forsaken ones
The children of the meek
We remain unshaken
We are strong.

VERSE 3
There’s a tempest bearing north and her name is ‘Recompense’
and there’s nowhere on this earth where you can run.
She remembers what you did and she’s coming for her fill
The final reckoning has only just begun.

VERSE 4
Can you feel my enslavement?
Born to ride but stuck on the pavement
No more lies
The mortar cracks, and up I rise
A Phoenix in the wind.


CHORUS
We are the forsaken ones
The children of the meek
We remain unshaken
We are strong

We are the forsaken ones
Protectors of the weak
We remain unshaken
We remain unshaken

BRIDGE
The fuse you lit so long ago has blazed throughout the years
and still the fire has been burning in my heart
But your essence was corrupted it was plain to see
You were nothing but a coward from the start

VERSE 5
Can you feel my enslavement?
Born to ride but stuck on the pavement
No more lies
The mortar cracks, and up I rise
A Phoenix in the wind.


CHORUS x 2
We are the forsaken ones
The children of the meek
We remain unshaken
We are strong.

We are the forsaken ones
The children of the meek
We remain unshaken
We are strong.
