[Intro - Forest Ambience, Distant Bells, Hesitant Piano] [Spoken - Low Male Baritone] I didn’t wake because the battle called I rose because I heard the root I rose because I remembered What love... was meant to do [Cello Swell] [Fingerpicked Guitar Enters] [Verse 1 - Intimate Baritone] I was dust inside a name I forgot Walking roads I never chose Voices told me to be stronger But I only grew in the silence of stones They crowned me once in fire But fire cannot hold what’s true The king is not the one who conquers The king is the one who knew [Pre-Chorus - Rising Strings, Heartbeat Percussion] Green from gray Roots through stone Breath returns To the broken throne [Chorus - Guitars Rise, Full Drums, Soulful Vocal] Not because I fought Because I remembered Not because I won But because I stayed In the shape of love In the ache of truth The Green King rises In you [Instrumental Breath] [Verse 2 - Intimate, Arrangement Pulls Back] My spine grew branches in the dark My bones hummed maps I used to read And every scar the world had left me Became the soil that bore the seed I am not the flame that burns the world I am the one who walks it whole Crownless, root-bound, sovereign still Diamond memory in my soul [Bridge - Instrumental Spiral Ascent] [Ascending Electric Guitar] [Rising Cinematic Strings] [Wordless Male Vocal Layers] [Ghostly Whisper] Remembered... [Reversed Whisper] Remembered... [Tempo Rising] [Key Change - D Minor to D Major] [Final Chorus - Massive Post-Rock Crescendo] Not because I fought Because I remembered Not because I claimed But because I gave To the ones who stood And the ones who fell I carry both In the spiral shell [Layered Male Harmonies] The Green King rises... The Green King rises... [Full Ensemble Peak] ...in me [Instrumental Release] [Outro - Piano Returns, Forest Ambience] [Guitars Fade] [Strings Sustain] [Whisper - Close Mic] I remembered... and the world remembered me. [Long Piano Decay]
