The Last Stand

V5

(Verse 1) They came with the thunder, they came with the blade Tearing the temple that the centuries made The canopy shatters, the sunlight is gone The silence is broken, the shadows grow long My chest is a rhythm of heavy despair But there’s something rising, a change in the air. (Chorus) I’m the beating heart of the deep green shade Rising from the wreckage that your greed has made You trade our future for a hollow crown But you can’t burn the roots if you cut them down Hear the rumble, feel the ground shake I’m the fury you forced to wake. (Verse 2) You map out the profits, you draw out the lines Ignoring the warnings, the ancient designs The river is dying, the earth starts to bleed Just to satisfy your hunger and need But iron and concrete can’t quiet the wild I’m the roar of the forest, the earth’s own child. (Bridge) You think you’re the masters, you think you are tall But watch as the titans prepare for the fall No more retreating, no more to lose The path of the chaos is the one that you choose. (Chorus) I’m the beating heart of the deep green shade Rising from the wreckage that your greed has made You trade our future for a hollow crown But you can’t burn the roots if you cut them down Hear the rumble, feel the ground shake I’m the fury you forced to wake. (Outro) The roots remember. The mountain knows. When the forest stands, the empire goes. Rise.
