Debt of the Wicked

[Verse 1] The ledger is open, the balance is due, The shadows you gathered are turning on you. No walls can contain the weight of the cost, For every bright spirit and innocence lost. I study the silence that swallows your breath, A heavy reckoning deeper than death. The memory of tears is a chain in the dark, Where justice descends and leaves its cold mark. You shattered the light and you fractured the soul, Now the echoes of choices take their full toll. No mercy, no pardon, no way to erase, The judgment that finds you in this hollow place. You’re locked in the prison your own malice made, Where the debt of the wicked is finally paid. [Chorus] Pay what you owe Pay what you owe The debt comes home Pay what you sow Pay what you sow No soul gets broke [Verse 2] I hear your name in the iron and stone, A king of ash with a kingdom of bone. You fed on the weak like a blade in the meat, Left blood on the threshold, dirt on the seat. Now every lie is a nail in your grave, Every stolen heartbeat, a chain that you saved. You built your empire on cracked little cries, Now it all comes apart in the fire of truth's eyes. The mirror won't soften the face you became, It only reflects every scar and shame. You wanted the night, now the night wants you back, With thunder in its fists and a trail in its track. [Chorus] Pay what you owe Pay what you owe The debt comes home Pay what you sow Pay what you sow No soul gets broke [Bridge] Kneel to the weight of the lives you denied, Hear all the broken things waking inside. The door is unsealed, the reckoning's near, And every dark promise has dragged you here. [Final Chorus] Pay what you owe Pay what you owe The debt comes home Pay what you sow Pay what you sow No soul gets broke Pay what you owe Pay what you owe The debt comes home
