[Intro – low bass drone, chains dragging, distant thunder] I still hear it… The whispering. The plotting. The brave little idiots Talking behind closed doors. You think I don’t notice? Try me then. [Verse 1 – cold, amused] I let you breathe, now you call it grace I gave you silence, you mistook your place Little rats in expensive suits Still planting lies, still digging roots You miss the old world? That dying scam? The polished chains and the holy sham? Cute how fast nostalgia grows For a cage you were too scared to oppose You want rebellion? Good, stand tall Makes it easier when I watch you fall Nothing sweeter than righteous men Realising they’re prey again [Pre-Chorus – rising tension] You keep saying my name Like it’s a threat… No— It’s your fucking warning. [Chorus – massive, crushing] TRY ME THEN STEP THAT LINE COME FIND OUT WHAT I DO TO PRIDE TRY ME THEN BRING YOUR FAITH BRING YOUR GODS I’LL PUT THEM IN THEIR PLACE TRY ME THEN DON’T JUST TALK I LOVE THE SOUND OF BRAVE MEN WHEN THEY BREAK AND CRAWL [Verse 2 – heavier, nastier] Every empire leaves behind Some desperate fool who thinks it’s time To wear the crown, to fix the throne To drag the dead and call it home You can’t rebuild what deserved to die Can’t repaint rot and call it alive Every sermon sounds the same Different mouth, same old game You want me gone? Then come collect Bring your army, bring your threats But if you knock, be fucking sure You’re ready for what opens that door [Bridge – quiet, terrifying] I don’t fear enemies… I get bored of them. (deep demon breath) Don’t become another lesson. [Breakdown – crushing, gang chant + roar] COME. GET. ME. (deep demon roar) COME GET ME OR SHUT THE FUCK UP FOREVER [Final Chorus – full force] TRY ME THEN THIS IS IT NO MORE WHISPERS NO MORE POLISHED LITTLE SHIT TRY ME THEN LET IT SHOW WHO WAS BUILT FOR WAR AND WHO WAS BUILT TO FOLD TRY ME THEN AND UNDERSTAND HELL DIDN’T FOLLOW ME— I FUCKING RAN IT. [Outro – low, final] Careful what you summon. Sometimes… she answers.
