[Intro][Low bass drone, distant ritual drums, dark atmospheric noise] Before the wordThere was obedience Before the throneThere was fear Before the lawThere was silence Before the silenceThere was a manWho forgotHe was free [Spoken Verse][Deep male spoken-word, slow and ceremonial] Servitium Not the handThat holds the whip Not the crownThat gives command Not the templeNot the kingdomNot the masterNot the brand Servitium The name beneath the nameThe shape behind the vowThe quiet architectureOf why men still bow [Build][Tribal toms enter slowly, clean guitars with dark harmonics] You served the voiceBefore it spoke You served the ruleBefore it broke You served the fearAnd called it peace You kissed the lockAnd named it key [Chanted Section][Distant low choir, ritual pulse growing] ServitiumServitium The wound remembersWhat the mouth denies ServitiumServitium The soul awakensWhen the servant dies [Heavy Entrance][Slow distorted guitars enter, massive bass, restrained drums] This is not rebellionThis is return This is not madnessThis is the burn This is not hatredThis is the line Where borrowed truthMeets the spine [Final Spoken Passage][Music pulls back, voice close and dark] Every man serves something A lawA lieA hungerA crown But there comes a momentWhen the knee refuses the ground That moment has a name Servitium [Outro][Whispered, fading into low drone] Servitium is not the chain Servitium is the momentYou see it [End]
