[Verse 1] His father’s shadow Painted on his face Protected son Now a traitor in the blaze Dictator’s gold Running through his veins But I see the fracture I see the chains Zabulon laughs Like a knife on glass Says, “He’s broken” Says, “He won’t last” [Pre-Chorus] His dark eyes burn Right through my skin He wants my answer He wants me in Gun in his hand Turning slow, turning cold I taste the threat Before he speaks it whole [Chorus] Antonio, Antonio Burn the crown Antonio, Antonio Drag it down Son of the throne Now you know the sound Antonio, Antonio Spit it out loud [Verse 2] “Your brother is incompetent,” He spits through the room “Doesn’t hear a word I’ve been speaking to him” Hours in the dark And still no clean break “The boy is damaged Beyond repair” He waves both hands Like he owns my breath Then flicks that gun Like he’s courting death [Pre-Chorus] What do you want From a mouth like mine? A lie? A prayer? A sign? A crime? He leans back slow Twisting fate in steel But I know the game And I know what’s real [Chorus] Antonio, Antonio Burn the crown Antonio, Antonio Drag it down Son of the throne Now you know the sound Antonio, Antonio Spit it out loud [Bridge] He was raised in silk With blood on the seam Now he walks through fire For a ruined dream Not the father’s prize Not the regime’s saint He chose the cut And he earned the pain [Final Chorus] Antonio, Antonio Burn the crown Antonio, Antonio Drag it down Son of the throne Now you know the sound Antonio, Antonio Spit it out loud Antonio, Antonio No more chains Antonio, Antonio Take the name From protected son To the war that came Antonio, Antonio Say it again
