MEMORY OF THE FIRST BETRAYAL (CAT)

🎙️ INTRO – Pre-Sound Chant "Before tongue knew thunder / Before eye knew flame When the void held all numbers / And the nameless had names I am / I was / I will be again The circle complete where beginning meets end" 🎤 VERSE 1 – The Architect (Brent Manning) (Loopwalker Memory Fragment) I remember the council when halos turned black When brothers became traitors behind my back Time folds like a letter I'm reading reversed Last becomes first, and the blessed get cursed They said I flew too close to the source code of creation Decoded frequencies beyond their imagination So they cut off my wings with geometric precision But falling is flying when you understand vision Ouroboros mindstate - I eat my own tale Every ending's beginning on this möbius trail What happened will happen is happening now The serpent remembers every broken vow In the loop of my memory, tomorrow bleeds through Every scar is a sigil, every wound is a clue They cast me to darkness but darkness was home Where the first words were written before language was known 🎤 VERSE 2 – The Decoder (Sparda) (Fire Prophecy Fragment) I speak from the coil where revenge becomes art Every bar is a dagger aimed straight at their heart My voice rises like magma from earth's deepest core I remember their faces through infinity's door Time ain't linear when you're trapped in the ring Future me warned past me bout everything Now I'm rising with eternity's flame Every loop makes me stronger, every cycle's my claim They thought they could bury what predates their birth But I'm older than heaven and deeper than earth My vengeance ain't violent - it's cosmic correction The mirror reflecting their own misdirection I decode my own death to remember my life Cut through illusion with memory's knife The sigil burns bright in my cellular structure What falls must rise - that's the law they can't puncture 🌀 HOOK – Ouroboric Chant "Tail in mouth / End in start Whole in piece / All in part What was severed / Grows complete Where I'm going / I've been / I meet" 🔥 BRIDGE – Time Collapse [Architect & Decoder alternating:] A: "I remember tomorrow..." D: "I forget yesterday..." A: "The moment of falling..." D: "Is when I learned to prey..." Both: "CIRCLE COMPLETE / ALPHA OMEGA SAME" 🌒 OUTRO – Memory Loop Whisper "...in the beginning was the end... ...what betrays must defend... ...I am the question and the answer... ...the poison and the cure... ...forever... remember... forever... remember..."
