[Intro - Dialogue] “You still think this is about power.” “It never was.” “It’s about survival.” [Verse 1] You stand there preaching mercy With clean hands and a broken shield. You’ve never watched a kingdom burn Because you refused to kill. You call me twisted, fallen, Say I crossed a sacred line. But you were there beside me When we saw the warning signs. You hesitated. [Pre-Chorus] While you were searching for forgiveness I was digging graves. While you were begging for redemption I was counting names. [Build] (Instrumental build) [Hook] Digging graves! Counting names! [Drop] (Instrumental Drop) [Break] (Melodic solo) [Chorus] You made me necessary. You forced me to create this flame. If I am what you’re fighting — You’re the one who shaped my name. I carry what you couldn’t. I became your sin. If I’m the monster in your story — You’re the reason I exist. [Interlude] [Chant] Hey-ah! Hey-ah! [Verse 2] You think I wanted bloodshed? You think I crave the throne? I wanted peace — but peace without a spine Is just waiting to be owned. You still believe in saving them. I believe in saving what remains. You’re trying to protect their innocence — I’m trying to break the chain. [Pre-Chorus 2] Every time you spared a tyrant He sharpened up his blade. Every time you chose compassion Another city paid. [Chorus] You made me necessary. I became the storm. While you were clinging to your conscience I was keeping people warm. I burn so they can rebuild. I scar so they survive. If history remembers me as evil — At least they’re still alive. [Build] (Instrumental build) [Hook] Still alive! Still alive!” [Drop] (Instrumental Drop) [Break] (Instrumental Break) [Bridge] Look at me. Look at what I’ve become. You think I don’t feel it? You think I don’t break? Every night I hear screaming. Every face on their worst day. Every name is pain. I just refuse to let it be for nothing. [Final Chorus] You made me necessary! So don’t pretend you’re clean! You needed someone ruthless — You just didn’t want it seen. If I fall beneath your halo, If you strike me down in light — Remember who was willing When you could not. [Outro] The last... [Choir - Echo, fade] Grave!
