[Intro – Glass Cracking + Low Drone] Reflection detected. Identity unstable. ⸻ [Verse 1 – Crusader Voice] I see you moving when I don’t blink Same scar pattern — same edge of the brink You smile when I clench my jaw You step when I hesitate at war Are you a curse? Are you decay? Are you the thing that makes me stray? Every doubt that I suppress Echoes louder in your chest ⸻ [Pre-Chorus – Demon Voice Creeping In] You call me shadow You call me sin But I’ve been here Since you began ⸻ [Chorus I – Dual Vocal Hook] [Crusader] You’re the fracture in my design The voice that tells me cross the line [Demon] I’m the instinct that keeps you alive The reason you fight — not just survive [Both] When the ashes fall — I rise. ⸻ [Verse 2 – Verbal Combat, Back-and-Forth] [Crusader] You feed on rage. [Demon] You swing because of it. [Crusader] You twist my thoughts. [Demon] I sharpen your grip. [Crusader] You want control. [Demon] I want you breathing. [Crusader] You’re not salvation. [Demon] I’m the reason you’re still believing. ⸻ [Pre-Chorus II – Psychological Chess] [Crusader] If I erase you — am I clean? [Demon] If you erase me — you’re weak. [Crusader] You push me toward the edge of collapse. [Demon] I pull you back when heaven snaps. ⸻ [Chorus II – Heavier, More Aggressive] [Crusader] You’re the hunger behind my crown The reason I don’t back down [Demon] You’re the mask I choose to wear So fear can’t smell despair [Both] We burn. We divide. When the ashes fall — I rise. ⸻ [BREAKDOWN – Full Confrontation] [Crusader scream] I DON’T NEED YOU. [Demon growl] YOU DO. [Crusader] I’M STRONGER ALONE. [Demon] THEN WHY AM I YOU? [Silence drop] ⸻ [Bridge – The Reveal – Calm, Low Strings] (Demon – calm, almost human) I was there when the chapel fell. When the brand burned. When no angel answered. I am not your corruption. I am your adaptation. I am the part that refused to die. (Crusader, quiet) …You kept me alive. [Demon] Yes. ⸻ [Final Chorus III – Unified Power] No more mirror. No divide. Shadow and flame Side by side. Not possession — Not disguise. Integration in our eyes. We don’t kneel. We don’t disguise. When the ashes fall — I rise. When the ashes fall — we rise.
