Streetlight flickers, midnight breath
I’ve tasted loss, I’ve danced with debt
No headlines left, no throne to chase
Just scars that learned to hold their place
I don’t shout, I don’t pretend
I bend — but I don’t end
STILL STANDING
ON MY FEET
No crown, no mercy
JUST CONCRETE
STILL STANDING
IN THE RAIN
Slow burn fire
IN MY VEINS
Whiskey talks, the floor listens
Time keeps score, I don’t mention
Every fall taught me the ground
How to rise without a sound
I don’t beg, I don’t bow
I’m still here — here and now
STILL STANDING
BLOOD AND BONES
Built my weight
ON MY OWN
STILL STANDING
NO DISPLAY
I don’t win loud
—I STAY
If this is all I ever claim
Let it know my name
STILL STANDING
UNDER FIRE
No quick crown
NO DESIRE
STILL STANDING
WHEN IT ENDS
I don’t fade
—I BEND

MIDNIGHT ALCHEMY
CROWN OF ASH & FIRE is MIDNIGHT ALCHEMY's second album,
a deeper and more visceral exploration of their concept of "midnight alchemy."
Across ten tracks, the album traces rejection of authority, pressure, impulse, release, dignity, acceleration, intoxication, obsession, and unresolved desire.
Rather than portraying victory or salvation, these songs capture figures who continue to walk forward -
cloaked in ash and flame.
Musically rooted in British hard rock, the album avoids excessive polish or modern aggression.
Instead, it focuses relentlessly on the fundamentals of rock: riffs, groove, and the weight of the human voice.
What resonates here is not completion or arrival.
It is the ember that remains after the fire has burned -
the imperfection that gives birth to what comes next.
CROWN OF ASH & FIRE is not an ending.
It is an unfinished crown, forged to carry the story forward.
