The Four Horsemen

[Intro]
(Heavy, distorted, down-tuned riff kicks in, slow and menacing like a gathering storm)

[Verse 1]
The skies crack open, bleeding rust and haze
A white steed emerges from the godless maze
Hoofbeats like a fever drum, a conqueror’s advance
A bow of ivory, drawn tight in a prideful trance
He wears your ambition, a crown of gilded lies
The silent pestilence reflected in your eyes
You built your towers to mock the sun's own fire
Now bow before the architect of your funeral pyre

[Verse 2]
A shadow shifts, a crimson stain upon the land
The scarlet horseman, a great sword in his hand
He comes to sever, to break the bonds you feign
To turn the blood of kinship into acid rain
Fed by the envy in your bitter, whispered words
He is the fury of forgotten, broken herds
The lust for power, the wrath that you embrace
He’ll let you tear the flesh from your own brother’s face

[Chorus]
(Tempo explodes into a thrashing, furious pace)
FOUR RIDERS BORN OF SHADOW!
HEAR THE THUNDER OF THE FALL!
THIS IS THE RECKONING, THE FINAL, BRUTAL CALL!
RIDE WITH US INTO THE ABYSS!
WHERE EVERY RIFF IS A BATTLE CRY!
YOUR SINS HAVE EARNED YOU THIS!
NOW WATCH YOUR WORLD DIE!

[Verse 3]
Then comes the black horse, a void in righteous light
His rider holds the scales that balance wrong and right
A measure of wheat for a wage that bleeds you dry
While bloated kings watch hollow children cry
This is the harvest of your avarice and greed
You choked the earth to satisfy your every need
Now let the famine claw and scrape your coffers bare
Starve on your mountains of gold and cold despair

[Bridge]
(Music slows to a crushing, doom-metal dirge. Drums are heavy and deliberate.)
The air grows thin… a scent of rot… a sick, green light…
A pale horse waits… a phantom in the endless night.
His rider’s name is Death.
And Hell follows with him.
He is the wage of Sloth, the peace you sought within…
Your apathy, your gilded cage, your quiet, slow decay…
You closed your eyes and prayed the darkness went away.
It never did.
It only grew.

(Blistering, chaotic guitar solo erupts, filled with dive bombs and screaming harmonics, embodying the chaos of the apocalypse)

[Chorus] 
(Returns with even greater ferocity, double bass drumming at full throttle)
FOUR RIDERS BORN OF SHADOW!
HEAR THE THUNDER OF THE FALL!
THIS IS THE RECKONING, THE FINAL, BRUTAL CALL!
RIDE WITH US INTO THE ABYSS!
WHERE EVERY RIFF IS A BATTLE CRY!
YOUR SINS HAVE EARNED YOU THIS!
NOW WATCH YOUR WORLD DIE!

[Outro]
(Music breaks down into a final, chugging, head-banging riff that slowly fades)
No thrones remain.
No flags to raise.
No gold to count in these final days.
The silence screams where cities stood.
This is not music.
This is not forgiveness.
(Final, guttural scream over a ringing power chord)
THIS… IS THE UPRISING
