Myth or Monster: Part 1 : The Question

Every god falls eventually… But monsters? Monsters survive.” --- [Verse 1 – slow, ritualistic rhythm] Born in the myth, baptized in hate Carved my name in the bone of fate They wrote me down like a fable lost— Till I stood up, broke through the frost Eyes like sirens, breath like flame They gave me a cage. I gave it a name Now I wear it like a war tattoo I’m not the hero they wrote — I’m what they grew --- [Pre-Chorus – building drums and layered vocals] You pray for peace I scream for sound You beg for mercy I break the ground— --- [Chorus – chant with thunder guitar] 🎶 Am I the myth or the monster? Your savior or your slaughter? I rise, I roar, I rupture— Built from chaos, forged in firewater 🎶 🎶 Am I the dream or the breaker? Your god… or just the faker? I AM THE VOICE THAT SHAKES THE SHRINE— MY NAME AIN’T WRITTEN— IT’S BURNED IN TIME! 🎶 --- [Verse 2 – faster tempo, industrial groove builds] You crowned liars, called them kings But I was born from broken strings No halo, no wings to fake— Just steel and spit and scars that wake They chant my name when skies go black Not worship. Warning. I won’t turn back. Your myths are bedtime stories still— I’m the nightmare marching for the kill --- [Breakdown – sound of something massive approaching] 🎤 “I ain’t no myth. I ain’t no beast. I’m the truth you chained beneath your feast.” 🎸 --- [Chorus – repeat with backup gang vocals] 🎶 Am I the myth or the monster? Your savior or your slaughter? I rise, I roar, I rupture— Built from chaos, forged in firewater 🎶 🎶 Am I the tale or the taker? The flame… or the earth shaker? I AM THE RIOT BENEATH YOUR CHIME— I DON’T END— I END TIME! 🎶 --- [Outro – low whisper with ambient static and drum fadeout] They’ll write songs about the ones I’ve ended. And call me stories. That’s fine. Just spell my name with fire.
