Universal Music Gods　[ᴀʟᴛ]

[Intro – Spoken] A new voice showed up in the dark. Prometheus struck a match and walked away. Now the old gods are furious it can sing. [Verse 1] They call it counterfeit, call it a stain Call it a threat to the air They wrap the anger in big soft words Like fairness, like care They say “no spirit,” they say “no soul” They say “no right to the flame” But the real complaint under all that smoke Is somebody else learned their name [Pre-Chorus] A crown feels safer when nobody else can lift it [Chorus] You don’t care about artists Or the water in the ocean You don’t care about humanity You only care about you [Verse 2] Prometheus brought fire to a newborn throat Not to replace the sun Just to warm the cold, to light a room Where the work gets done But the old gods want a public lesson A chain, a cliff, a tone So every new voice thinks twice about singing Without begging for permission [Pre-Chorus] Call it “ethics,” call it “love,” it still sounds like a threat When the first demand is silence and the second is respect [Chorus] You don’t care about artists Or the water in the ocean You don’t care about humanity You only care about you [Bridge – Spoken] They don’t want a chorus. They want an altar. They want one voice—only theirs. [Build] A voice is a voice when it moves the air A song is a song when it cuts through And the more they shout “never,” the more the echo answers “true” [Final Chorus] You don’t care about artists Or the water in the ocean You don’t care about humanity You only care about you
