Verse 1 Left the walled garden, gates closed at my back No compass but the calluses I made Just a hand, a hammer, dust where a home should be Wilderness don't ask you what you used to be Pre-chorus Down where the old thrones fall Down where the bootloaders crawl Chorus Omarchy, Omarchy —i carved it out of dust Every line I lay is a line I have to trust Call it a kingdom, call it a cage Omarchy, Omarchy — i am building either way Verse 2 Hundred names for what I built, not one for what it cost Count the wins at midnight against the ones I've lost Let the crows keep talking, let the whole town stare Stone don't need a witness, stone just needs a hand there Pre-chorus Down where the config lies Down where the old gods die Chorus (mutated) Omarchy, Omarchy — carved it out of the dark Let them count the cracks, they'll never read the mark Call it a kingdom, call it a cage Omarchy, Omarchy — we're building either way Bridge Past the oligarchs Past the gold they hoard like breath A builder in the wilderness Still standing past the death Still standing when the noise dies down Still standing, still laying stone Final Chorus Omarchy, Omarchy — they'll build it long after us Every stone we leave behind, they'll shape it into trust Call it a kingdom, call it a cage Omarchy, Omarchy — they'll be building either way
