Ashes of a God

Chains dragging in the dark

Echoes in his heart

Ghost of Sparta marked

By the sins he can’t depart

Born in the dust where the war drums roar

Spartan blood in his veins, raised to endure

Blades in his hands, oath in his chest

Swore to the gods just to conquer death

They called, and the rage took hold

Turned a mortal man to a weapon of old

Village in flames, eyes burning red

Didn’t see his own blood lying there dead

Ash on his skin, cursed in white

Every breath he takes echoes that night

“Monster,” they whisper, “the Ghost walks near”

Fueled by grief, chained to fear

He tried to run, but the past won’t fade

Every god he served, every debt unpaid

From Olympus heights to the underworld’s flame

He carved his vengeance into their name

Bow to the fury, the breaker of thrones

Kratos rising from blood and bones

Gods fall down when he calls their end

War don’t stop—it just begins again

Ashes to ashes, the past still burns

Every lesson paid in the pain he earns

From Sparta’s son to the god they dread

He wears the crown of the fallen dead

Climbed Mount Olympus with hate in his lungs

Zeus on the throne where betrayal was spun

Thunder cracked but it wasn’t enough

Kratos stood when the storm got rough

Gaia fell and the Titans broke

Every alliance turned into smoke

Blades of Chaos singing through war

Every swing settling ancient scores

Zeus struck down, the cycle complete

But vengeance tastes hollow, bitter, and weak

The world lay broken beneath his hand

No peace for a cursed man

Power don’t heal what the heart can’t mend

Even gods fall when they chase the end

He looked at the ruin, the cost, the flame

And saw there was no one left to blame

Bow to the fury, the breaker of thrones

Kratos rising from blood and bones

Gods fall down when he calls their end

War don’t stop—it just begins again

Ashes to ashes, the past still burns

Every lesson paid in the pain he earns

From Sparta’s son to the god they dread

He wears the crown of the fallen dead

North winds howl in a foreign land

A quieter war in a father’s hands

Leviathan cold, no chaos inside

But the storm still lives where the old ghosts hide

Atreus walks with a question in his eyes

“What is a god? Truth or lies?”

Kratos breathes through the weight of his past

Trying to build something meant to last

([Heavy voice] “Do not be me,”)

A warning carved from the pain he knows

From killing for gods to breaking the chain

He fights not for rage—but to end the pain

No more service, no more labored slavery

No more signing his own death warrant.

From ashes he rose, through fire reborn

A man remade from a god once torn

Bow to the man who defied his fate

Turned all his fury into something great

Gods may fall, but the story bends

Even the monster can make amends

Ashes to ashes, but not the same

He walks through fire, no longer chained

From Ghost of Sparta to something more

He’s not their weapon anymore
