(Verse 1) Six foot four in a schoolyard of stone Taking back the silence from a hollowed-out throne No room for the greeting, no space for the talk Just the iron in the spirit and a rhythmic walk Hands in the pocket, eyes on the floor Watching every villain start to pray for the door From the Japanese cell to the Egyptian sand I’m the only monster with a physical hand (Ora!) (Chorus) Check the receipt, check the cost Everything you carry is already lost It’s a stardust fever on a midnight blue With a ghost in the mirror and a veteran crew One second of the silence, the empire is ash The history of a world in a singular flash He’s a legend of oceans and a master of keys The only one ruling the industrial seas (Verse 2) Hat fused in, I don't ever see the sun I’m the only answer when the talk is all done Don't you want the mercy or the penalty instead? Or is the record the only thing you’ve ever read? (Good grief...) Precision on the strike, I’m a tactical unit Watching every villain start to physically ruin it The ripple was a whisper, but the stand is a shout The only one left when the lights are all out (Bridge) Stop the clock, let the world turn to gray There’s a heavy-duty price that you’re going to pay No movement in the vacuum, no air in the lung Just the final verdict on a cynical tongue (Ora!) (Ora!) The execution is a hunger that the silence can’t prime For every single captain who is lost in the crime (Chorus) Check the receipt, check the cost Everything you carry is already lost It’s a stardust fever on a midnight blue With a ghost in the mirror and a veteran crew One second of the silence, the empire is ash The history of a world in a singular flash He’s a legend of oceans and a master of keys The only one ruling the industrial seas (Outro) Lower the hand. Deep. Quiet. The ink is a fever. The time is a grave. And the only one honest. Is the heart of the brave. (Yare yare daze.)
