Lyric

Like a Lightning

403

Static sky, awake now

Dawn breaks; seas breathe out

After the seer was slain, the isle painted calm to hide

Mountains hush at dusk now

Black tide hauled me out

Kindness wore a mask; iron rule made the meek all kneel

Break the chain, say my name

I crossed the black tide at night to sleeping land

False calm on each face we see, skin deep

Power named itself "truth" and made us kneel

Tear the false peace veiled out, let the tyrants bow

Oh, Like a lightning, no one can stop me

Those who chain us will now turn to the dust

Oh, Like a lightning, no one can stop me

Even heaven's thunder fails

Our fate keeps running, I will hunt it down

I stake my life—no fear now

Oaths burn, I won’t fold

Your hand let go, still warm

Five trials carve their marks; I carry names through the dark

Night’s decree can crack

Count three beats and rise

Drive through the painted gate, let the thunder tear it down

Say my name

Rain hammers on the shields hard; drums call the brave

Masks crack on every face here, all at once

Take aim, draw a single breath, strike through to end

Break the paper-thin peace; let the thunder in

Oh, Like a lightning, no one can stop me

Those who chain us are all consigned to the past

Oh, Like a lightning, no one can stop me

Even heaven's thunder fades

Oh, Like a lightning, no one can stop me

Those who chain us will now turn to the dust

Oh, Like a lightning, no one can stop me

Even heaven's thunder fails

Oh, Like a lightning, no one can stop me

Wow wow wow

Oh, Like a lightning, no one can stop me

Even heaven bows at last

Our fate keeps running; I will hunt it down tonight

No turning back—I move now
