[Intro — Whispered Male Vocals, Soft Piano] Every city has a garden. Every garden needs something to make it grow. You call them people. I call them... Seeds. [Verse 1] Gotham grows beneath the skyline. Concrete roots beneath the street. Every alley hides a secret. Every heart conceals a need. You want power. You want freedom. You want something more than this. So I'll give you what you're missing. Just don't ask me what it is. [Pre-Chorus] Plant the seed. Watch it grow. Feed the fear. Let it show. [Chorus] WELCOME TO THE GARDEN OF GOTHAM! WHERE EVERY BROKEN SOUL CAN GROW! PLANT YOUR FEARS INTO THE CONCRETE! AND WATCH YOUR DARKEST WISHES SHOW! WELCOME TO THE GARDEN OF GOTHAM! THERE'S NO SUCH THING AS WASTED GROUND! EVERY SEED BECOMES A MONSTER! WHEN YOU GIVE IT TIME TO GROW! [Verse 2] They called me Bloom. They called me monster. They never understood the plan. I don't destroy this dying city. I simply give it what it lacks. A little poison. A little power. A little push beneath the skin. And suddenly the weakest people... Are the strongest things within. [Pre-Chorus] Roots below. Flowers rise. Something beautiful... Something dies. [Chorus] WELCOME TO THE GARDEN OF GOTHAM! WHERE EVERY BROKEN SOUL CAN GROW! PLANT YOUR FEARS INTO THE CONCRETE! AND WATCH YOUR DARKEST WISHES SHOW! WELCOME TO THE GARDEN OF GOTHAM! LET THE OLD WORLD FALL AWAY! IF GOTHAM WON'T CHANGE ITSELF... THEN I'LL CHANGE IT ANYWAY! [Bridge — Quiet, Unsettling] You think you're safe. You think you're human. You think your body belongs to you. But beneath your skin... Something is waiting. Something hungry. Something new. [Music Builds] The city is sick. The city is dying. And everyone keeps pretending they don't see it. So I'll open the ground. I'll plant the seeds. And I'll let Gotham... Become something beautiful. [Breakdown — Heavy Industrial Drums] GROW! GROW! GROW! LET THE ROOTS TAKE HOLD! GROW! GROW! GROW! LET THE NEW WORLD UNFOLD! YOU CANNOT STOP THE GARDEN! YOU CANNOT KILL THE BLOOM! GOTHAM IS THE SOIL! AND I AM... THE GARDENER! [Final Chorus — Massive] WELCOME TO THE GARDEN OF GOTHAM! WHERE EVERY BROKEN SOUL CAN GROW! THE CITY GAVE ME NOTHING... SO I GAVE THE CITY HOPE! WELCOME TO THE GARDEN OF GOTHAM! LET THE OLD GOTHAM FADE AWAY! NO MORE FEAR! NO MORE WEAKNESS! NO MORE HIDING FROM THE CHANGE! [Outro — Whispered Vocals, Distorted Ambient Sound] One seed... One flower... One city... One Bloom. The garden is open. And Gotham... Is ready to grow.
