Prompt / Lyrics
[Verse 1] Ash in my hair Smoke on the mountain path Steel in a stranger’s hand Lost in a language of wrath Old code carved In the bark of the cedar trees Drums call wolves Boots crush leaves He came on a thunder horse Gun in his broken fist Eyes like a guilty sky Shaking in the morning mist [Chorus] Blood and steel in the rain Who decides what remains Drum of war Drum of shame Call my name Call my name Wind that cuts through the flags Ghosts that cling to the rags Every charge Every flame Call my name Call my name [Verse 2] Banners burn Ink runs black in the shrine Armor creaks Under sand and salted wine One last charge Through a storm of iron fire Men of a vanished world Riding into tangled wire He drops his pride Kneels in the darkening field Reaches for a fallen blade Chooses bone over steel [Chorus] Blood and steel in the rain Who decides what remains Drum of war Drum of shame Call my name Call my name Wind that cuts through the flags Ghosts that cling to the rags Every charge Every flame Call my name Call my name [Bridge] Chant the dead in a low voice (hey!) Beat the ground till it answers back Old gods circle the smoke Watching red bloom in the black [Chorus] Blood and steel in the rain Who decides what remains Drum of war Drum of shame Call my name Call my name Wind that cuts through the flags Ghosts that cling to the rags Every charge Every flame Call my name Call my name

Dark hybrid score: low taiko and gqom-inspired percussion pulses under drone-like bass; shakuhachi and pipa trade sparse, haunted motifs, with koto and guzheng arpeggios flickering at the edges. Verses spoken-rap in a hushed, cinematic tone; hooks chanted almost ritualistically with layered male vocals. Reverb-heavy atmosphere, slow build to a thunderous mid-song peak, then stripped-back erhu outro., anime, kwaito, dark ambient, ambient
