[Intro: Mellotron swelling dark, Hammond organ ominous - 140 BPM] [Dm, Am, C, G progression - tragedy unfolding] [Dual guitars entering with heavy stoner groove] [Verse 1: Raw vocals, witnessing horror - 140 BPM] [Dm, F, C progression - building anger] Steel met flesh in the throne room My father fell without a sound The mage laughed like thunder breaking While the princess watched him drown Captain brother far away Banished before he could defend Dragon school dreams turned to ashes This is where my childhood ends [Pre-Chorus: Vocals rising with desperation - 140 BPM] [Am, C, Dm, F - heavy and crushing] They threw me to the forest edge No weapon, no name, no home Left me there to die alone But I learned to survive the cold [Chorus: Full band, defiant declaration - 140 BPM] [Dm, Bb, F, C - triumphant despite pain] Forged in ash and broken vows I learned to breathe the wild air The kingdom fell to shadow hands But I was sharpened by despair Golden age turned into rust While I grew stronger in the trees Waiting for the day of reckoning When I bring him to his knees [Interlude: Dual guitars trading solos, mellotron layers - 140 BPM] [Dm, C, Bb, Am - atmospheric passage of time] [Verse 2: Vocals determined, survival - 140 BPM] [Dm, F, C progression - steady and powerful] Wolves became my brothers Forest carved me into stone Every scar a lesson learned Every night I trained alone Years passed like grinding seasons Watched the kingdom from afar The mage sat on stolen throne While darkness spread like scars [Chorus: Growing intensity - 140 BPM] [Dm, Bb, F, C - building toward climax] Forged in ash and broken vows I learned to breathe the wild air The kingdom fell to shadow hands But I was sharpened by despair Golden age turned into rust While I grew stronger in the trees Waiting for the day of reckoning When I bring him to his knees [Bridge: Atmospheric shift, mellotron dominant - 140 BPM] [Gm, Dm, Am, C - tension rising] From the forest edge I see My kingdom drowning in the night The mage has brought his final plan Enemy forces come to fight [Final Verse: Heroic resolve, vocals raw and powerful - 140 BPM] [Dm, F, C - decision moment] Then fire lit the distant sky My home is burning down tonight I cannot stand and watch them fall This time I'm ready for the fight I leave the forest, leave the wolves Walk toward the flames ahead They thought exile killed the boy But it forged a warrior instead [Outro: Building intensity, unresolved tension - 140 BPM] [Dm, C, Bb, F - Hammond and mellotron ascending] [Guitars creating massive anticipation] [Ending on suspended chord - story continues...]
