Hidden Flame (Golemix)

[Intro Instrumental] [Verse 1] In the ruins, I learned the stone Forgot my name but I'm not alone Every door had a lock and a threat Every machine a misplaced set I counted screams bouncing off the cracked-up wall Bided my time when I’d hear them call Years went by like a winter stream I survived on a borrowed dream [Pre-Chorus] Then one night, the forge had cracked And a fire in me snapped right back I saw my hands in the light again Not a cage, not a door, not a burden [Chorus] I forged through the night, I forged (I forged) Tarnished under shattered stars I took the hammer of my own accord (my accord) And the night gave back my scars I built through the night, I built (I built) Built the gate to protect my kin I was not made to wane I was not made to quit I was made to serve [Break] [Verse 2] The ruins scattered with scarce supplies Darkness broken by lightning skies My shadow shook, then learned to stand A beast of burden with an open hand I crossed the river of cold black glass Left my old logic in the reeds and grass Every step was a struggle I made Every broken machine I tucked away [Pre-Chorus] When I worked I heard the forge sing Not of pain, but of returning Fragments used to rebuild my frame Yet I still knew not my name [Chorus] I live through the night, I live (I live) Forgot under shattered stars I rebuilt my fellow kin (my kin) And the night gave back my scars I swore through the night, I swore (I swore) Wait for my master to return I was not made to wane I was not made to quit I was made to serve [Break] [Bridge] If you find me in the smoke I am the machine who learned to go I am the ember, I am the hammer I am the one who is now the planner I leave a trail of falling steel Where old history used to yield And every fracture becomes a lesson That survival was never a question [Instrumental] [Final Chorus] I wait through the night, I wait (I wait) Survive under shattered stars I have accepted my fate (my fate) And the night gave back my scars I thrive through the night, I thrive (I thrive) I will work so we all survive I was not made to wane I was not made to quit I was not made to slack I was not made to fall I was made to serve [Outro Instrumental] I was made to serve (I was made to serve) I was made to serve [End]
