Prompt / Lyrics
Crowns are just rust Polished bones on borrowed thrones Prayers don’t echo They rot in the mouths that beg You built your heaven out of fear Stacked the bodies, called it law Painted halos on your tyrants Then named the silence “god” I’ve seen altars choke on ash Seen saints bleed just like men Tell me why your hands are shaking If your faith is ironclad You swear your power’s infinite But it cracks when I arrive You cling to names and lineage I only recognize the lie I don’t kneel I don’t pray I don’t bow to what decays Your heaven’s just a story told To keep the weak in chains I don’t kneel I don’t pray I don’t need your light to see If gods exist, they’ll die like kings In front of me You crowned yourself in blinding gold Called obedience “grace” All I see are trembling hands And terror in your face Your scriptures burn just like your flags When truth cuts through the smoke You scream my name like it’s a curse I don’t believe in hope Say it again Say you’re eternal Say it louder Convince yourself What is a king to a god? What is a god To a non-believer? I don’t kneel I don’t pray I don’t bow to what decays Your heaven’s just a grave you dig To feel less afraid I don’t kneel I don’t pray I don’t need your faith to breathe I am what you fear the most What won’t believe No crown survives No god stays clean Faith dies screaming When no one believes
