[Verse 1] I came with bread and dust, You came with steel and pride. I bore a house alone; You had a name to guard. [Pre-Chorus] Lay the blame on me. Let your anger end here. One hard hour must not Rule all your years. [Chorus] Remember who you are When the blood runs hot. A crown is not won By the lives you take. Let this wrong be mine. Don’t make a wound your law. Turn away while you still can. [Verse 2] You were spared revenge. There’s a throne ahead. When the dust has cleared, Will you praise this choice? [Pre-Chorus] Take what I have brought. Let the insult end here. There is still a road You can leave clean. [Chorus] Remember who you are When the blood runs hot. A crown is not won By the lives you take. Let this wrong be mine. Don’t make a wound your law. Turn away while you still can. [Bridge] I won’t call it harmless. I won’t call it peace. Stop before your fury Speaks for you and yours. Set the sword down now. You can still choose who you are. [Final Chorus] Remember who you are When the blood runs hot. Let mercy be the mark No victory can take. Let this wrong be mine. Don’t make a wound your law. Turn away while you still can. [Outro] I came with dust and bread. You turned away the blade. That was the beginning.
