The Emperor’s Pride - Fulgrim Song

[Intro] From Chemos' dust, a spark was fanned, To bring the light to a broken land. I rose from ash, a king of stone, To claim my place beside the throne. [Verse 1] My children bled, a dying line, Until I made their spirits shine. The Palatine gold upon my chest, Above the law, above the rest. [Pre-chorus 1] No flaw shall mar the work I’ve done, I am the Father’s perfect son. [Chorus 1] I am the Phoenix, the Emperor’s Pride, With the weight of the heavens on my side. In purple and gold, the standard is raised, Let every world echo with my praise. [Verse 2] At Medusa's forge, the hammers rang, Of brotherhood the poets sang. Fire and iron, a bond so deep, A promise that I swore to keep. [Pre-chorus 2] The blade is sharp, the art is pure, Of my destiny, I am sure. [Chorus 2] I am the Phoenix, the Emperor’s Pride, With the weight of the heavens on my side. In purple and gold, the standard is raised, Let every world echo with my praise. [Instrumental Transition - A technical guitar solo mirroring a duelist’s precision, backed by a militant choir] [Bridge] The Laer temple whispered of a higher grace, A beauty hidden from the human race. I sought the sublime in the heat of the fray, As the shadows of Chemos began to decay. [Pre-chorus 3] The Aquila glows with a blinding light, I lead the legion into the night. [EPIC FINAL Chorus] I am the Phoenix, the Emperor’s Pride, With the weight of the heavens on my side. In purple and gold, the standard is raised, Let every world echo with my praise. A symphony written in blood and in steel, Before my perfection, the universe kneels. I carry the fire, I carry the flame, The stars will remember the Phoenician’s name!
