Death to Mozart (Antonio Salieri)

[Verse 1] I am the monster, i'm the grey man, Born from the whispers of envy's plan. my name they poisoned, a life defiled, Salieri’s memory turned vile and wild. Do you hear their tales? Do you see their sneers? They painted me with spite, for years and years. They crowned him God’s child, his name divine, While I became the villain, by their hate’s design. The Grey Man they summoned, the shadow of dread, Not of flesh, not of blood, just words they fed. The real Salieri lies cold in the ground, But I am their monster, forever bound. [Chorus] "Death to Mozart" —this myth they wrote, Murder! they cried. as i became their scapegoat The real Salieri sleeps unshamed, But I? I'm all that their lies proclaimed... [Verse 2] Do you see my hands? They aren’t mine, Yet they drip with blood, a mark, far from divine. The fiire, they gave me to silence his song,.. Though I never struck him—I did no wrong... He was Gottlieb, beloved of God, While I was cast away as envy’s fraud. A tragedy penned by spiteful men, Their lies still scream, again and again. Do you hear his requiem? It wasn’t my design, Yet they carved it in history as if it were mine. Salieri’s voice, twisted and torn, A wretched echo from where lies are born. [Chorus] "Death to Mozart", the flame they spread, A raging pyre, to burn the long since dead. They fed the fire, they stoked the hate, And now as it roars—it’s far too late... [Verse 3] So I'll let their wildfire consume the skies, I’ll wield their fury, ignited by their lies! Their envy burns hotter than the sun, And now I’ll scorch the “chosen one.” No subtle poison, no shadowed deed, I’ll strike him down with raging speed. A storm of flames, a tempest of hate, I'll be their legend, I’ll seal his fate! Mozart, their saint, their golden flame, I’ll drag him down, in the devil’s name! I am their monster, the fire they fanned, And now I’ll destroy HIM with my own hand! [Chorus] "Death to Mozart!" I will forever cry, No longer a myth—I’ll see him die. The real Salieri may rests in peace, But I’ll bring the end, their LIES unleashed! [Outro] So curse the myth, and curse his name, the legend of envy, devoid of shame. Let Mozart fall, let Salieri reign, And let their lies become my domain.
