The Orphan & The Orb (Episode 3 "Gold City")
[robotic woman] wake up!!![Intro] [Orphan] Wake up in a hotel, somehow I’m still living Look out the window I’m in Gold City Last thing I remember orb going (mental) Now I'm at this inn though light leaks through the mantel Somewhere down the stairs I hear Voices, it’s the two men from the forest (I ready my orb then) [Buildup] [Sid] One said, "Told you we should’ve left him in the dirt" [Artemis] The other said, "told you that orb of his makes him worth it" I come from out of hiding orb lit in orbit [beat drop] ( orb orb orb Orb lit in orbit) [Hook] [Dark Complex Melodies And Harmony Structure] Welcome to Gold City where the gold casts dark shadows underneath Nice smiles, clean clothes to cloak monsters in the streets This is Gold City, gold dreams all bought with a price One wrong turn, one could turn to one long deadly night The [Break] [Orphan] The orb glows cold blue, buzzing essence in my reach (The orb, it’s cold, full of essence guiding me) Woke up in a strange room where fate is waiting for us to meet (Fate, in a room, ready for us to meet) [Verse 1] Orb focused, door opens To the bastards who attacked us And the mad one who pushed me, looks more mad now this morning after Other one looks half exhausted Half ashamed and somewhat guilty Both had blades, extremely dangerous (could kill me "Let’s put weapons on the table Who’s the man here on this picture?" They looked bitter. A demon broker would his soul Even sold children took our sister Only way to get her back was to kidnap just like he does [we're hopeless] [Sid] Don't want gold they want slave labor [they take ya] All night and day build altars in their favor [Artemis] We lost faith put trust in a manipulator Chances are they plan to slay her no matter [everything stops except a falling hyper melodic dramatic piano number into deeper falling buildup] [buildup] [Sid] There's no hope trusting a demon I'd repeat it to keep her breathing [Artemis] That's when we saw you in the forest Your orb had our swords left defeated [beat stops] [magical orb glowing sounds] [Hook] [Dark complex melodies and harmony structure] [no drums harmonic melodic piano enters only alternating to pads only] See in Gold City, the strong outlaw the weak Many come in shiny armor just to get easily beat [slow kick that hits once at the start of every bar all the way to next verse] [breakdown] Orb glows, cold blue, something new, within my reach When I'm still only this weak Nobody is really safe [interlude] [beat totally transitions to a new hyper melody fast and thought provoking alone on its own] [piano solo mesmerizing with melodic complexity and harmonic mastery] [hi hats and cymbals and snares enter halfway through the interlude] [dialogue] How are we supposed to have faith when there's demons everywhere [Fun cinematic cadence tight rhyme pockets syncopated flow dramatic pauses melodic phrasing and catchy beat riding delivery] [Beat drops] [no drums] [Verse 2] [hip hop rap style] [fast paced] [no drums no percussion] [Orphan] Right on cue my orb shines Guess I need to pay attention [Sid] Oh my God [Artemis] What's it doing [Orphan] Think it's tracking someone's essence Follow the mark Follow the spark Through the City's crowded market Follow the heartbeat of the drum Always leads me towards some knowledge At least in the past it always has [it has it has it has it has] Art, Sid, and me weaving Gold City Secrets hidden by so much beauty Orb kept leading me here to this alley We only see a child that looks so unhappy [Sid] Is this it [Artemis] This kid No chance [Sid] If you lie you die kid understand [Orphan] He looked so small somehow felt so grand My orb spoke again when he raised his hand [robotic female voice] That is no child that is a wise man [robotic female voice] Over 100 thousand years when I scanned [beat shuts down then reboots] [Sol] Longer than planned This all took you my friend The village Wizard-The-picture-of-the-man Why I'd expect more from you again Why Alpha choose you I'll never understand (Who?) [Artemis] Who are you Just a boy nothing less nothing more [Sol] Your so Immature with your orb it's definitely not just a toy Can't believe that Freezing weaklings is all that you use it for Keep on treating it so poor And it won't show you nothing more You Seem like your a smart guy But your not smarter than the Orb (So I'll help ya) [Orphan] You look young but speak like you've lived far far longer (honored) No elder I've known lived longer no one else is wiser [Bridge] [Sol] Long enough to watch a holy love a demon Leave relics behind never thinking twice about the human lives Long enough to know that man that's in that tattered picture, Yeah He's human, really Demi human, other half he's demon kind [last hook] [drums come back] [calm chill relaxing] Gold City be weary this is wear the demons sleep Pretty doors rich wine evil dines come time the feast [breakdown] Orb glows, cold blue, long ways, before i reach All the answers that i want All the answers that i seek [Outro] In Gold city (gold city, gold city) Gold city (gold city, gold city, gold city, gold
