Prompt / Lyrics
[Intro – Candle crackles, low Gregorian chant under reversed whispering] “Speak your sins… and let them in.” (The altar doesn’t want your prayers—it wants you.) ⸻ [Verse 1 – Hollow vocals, cinematic tension] I carved my name into the bone Of every lie I called my own Now my skin won’t fit the same It peels when someone says my name The floorboards creak like ancient hymns And I still taste the blood of them They said the devil’s on a leash— But I’m the one who cut the teeth ⸻ [Pre-Chorus – Soft female vocals echo over ominous synths] You lit the candles, drew the sign… But you forgot which soul was mine… ⸻ [Chorus – Explodes with layered screams and clean vocals] This is the altar of me— Where I burned my past to set it free But the ash rose up and came alive Now I’m choking on the things I survived This isn’t faith, it’s a funeral flame This body’s cursed, this blood’s to blame They said to kneel—but I became the beast At the altar of me, I found no peace ⸻ [Verse 2 – Rap-scream flow, glitchy distortions layered] Baptized in kerosene, I licked the fire just to feel clean I wear a mask with no face underneath They call it healing, I call it grief Tongues are speaking in riddles I dream Sanity’s stitched at the edge of a scream Every prayer I prayed was reversed— Now I bless the pain and call it a verse ⸻ [Pre-Chorus – Whispered counter-vocal builds into a snarl] You wanted light? Then kill the night. But I was born from wrong and rite… ⸻ [Chorus – Even harder, darker, backed with orchestral swells] This is the altar of me— Where I split my soul to be set free But the pieces clawed their way back home Now I wear them like a broken throne This isn’t truth—it’s a haunted creed This heart still beats just to feed the need They said to kneel—but I broke my knees At the altar of me, I serve disease ⸻ [Breakdown – Tempo shifts to crawling doom, vocals guttural] (ALTAR BLEEDING, ALTAR BURNS!) LAY ME DOWN AMONG THE WORMS! I AM NOT WHAT I ONCE BELIEVED— I AM THE ROTTEN GOD I PREACHED!! (SACRIFICE ME TO THE SELF I FEAR!) I BUILT THIS SHRINE OF PAIN RIGHT HERE!! ⸻ [Bridge – Soft female singing in Latin over heartbeat & strings] “In tenebris sumus… Fiat voluntas tua…” (In the darkness we remain… let your will be done…) ⸻ [Final Chorus – Slower, war-torn, anguished clean/scream duet] This is the altar of me— Where I bled out truth and drank deceit No resurrection, no white light Just shadows clawing through my sight I didn’t fall—I chose the flame Now say my name in fear, not shame I am the beast, the priest, the plea This is not a song—it’s blasphemy ⸻ [Outro – Distant bell, final whisper:] You prayed for mercy… to a god that was me.
