ROME Lyrics by Arankai

A Portrait of Red

2024

[Chorus]
I am Rome, this is my empire
Behold my throne, I am hellfire
No, I'm not here to claim divinity
Show me your deity
And I will show you one that bleeds
Recognize my authority, every knee will bow
Penitent, you will swear to me
Off with your head, I will add it to my dead throne
I'll take you all on, I'm still collecting bones

[Verse 1]
I'm not here to make peace with society
I will break every tower made of ivory
You can bet that I won't forget I am owed a debt
I was thrown to the wolves when they should have killed me
I will be the monarchy
See me in a crown of thorns, majesty
I know it's cruelty, but you will see
There's an antidote to everything, but not for me

[Verse 2]
Mercy wasn't shown to me
So I will show you nothing less
Carnifex restitution is a bloody mess
Say a prayer, hope there's something there
Hope somebody cares
Just like me, this will hurt, this will burn, lesson learned

[Breakdown]
Ah
On your knees and you will swear to me

[Chorus]
I am Rome, this is my empire
Behold my throne, I am hellfire
No, I'm not here to claim divinity
Show me your deity
And I will show you one that bleeds
Recognize my authority, every knee will bow
Penitent, you will swear to me
Off with your head, I will add it to my dead throne
I'll take you all on, I'm still collecting bones
