Lyrics

Prologue

Shadows crawl across the land

As democracy's pillars stand

Weakened by the coming storm

A new dark age taking form

Verse 1

From golden towers of vanity

A mogul plots his strategy

Celebrity turned to power play

Truth and reason cast away

The halls of history echo now

With warnings we've disavowed

Empires fallen to men like these

Who promise glory on their knees

Bridge

The constitution's sacred pact

Stands threatened by each act

While liberty holds its breath

In the face of democratic death

Intro

Flames of discord rise high

Dark clouds gather in the sky

Democracy's fragile light

Faces its darkest night[Start]

Intro

Flames of discord rise high

Dark clouds gather in the sky

Democracy's fragile light

Faces its darkest night

Verse 1

A businessman turned demagogue

His rhetoric, a poisoned fog

Media circus fuels his fame

As he plays his dangerous game

Dividing nations with his words

Truth twisted like dying birds

The masses hang on every tweet

As institutions face defeat

Pre-Chorus

The warning signs were always there

Yet many choose not to care

A perfect storm now takes control

As liberty pays the toll

Chorus

A tyrant's rise to power

Democracy hangs by a thread

The people blinded by his towers

False promises widely spread

Post-Chorus

Beware! Beware!

The fall awaits, beware![Chorus]

A tyrant's rise to power

Democracy hangs by a thread

The people blinded by his towers

False promises widely spread

Post-Chorus

Beware! Beware!

The fall awaits, beware!

Verse 2

Golden throne of deception

A nation torn apart and used

Fear becomes his weapon

As truth and facts are all confused

Walls built high around freedom

While justice weeps and bleeds

The circus of distraction

While power feeds on greed

Pre-Chorus

History watches silently

As empires rise and fall

The warnings from antiquity

Go unheard by all

Chorus

A tyrant's rise to power

Democracy hangs by a thread

The people blinded by his towers

False promises widely spread

Post-Chorus

Beware! Beware!

The fall awaits, beware![Bridge]

The assault on hallowed chambers

Democracy's temple defiled

The final act of rebellion

As reason is reviled

A legacy carved in chaos

History's judgment awaits

When power corrupts absolutely

And truth disintegrates

Guitar Solo

Final Chorus

A tyrant's rise to power

Democracy hangs by a thread

The people blinded by his towers

False promises widely spread

Outro

The pages of history turn

With warnings we must learn

For freedom's torch to burn

The vigilant must return

The battle for truth never ends

On this our future depends

Remember this dark descent

To prevent the next ascent

End
