It’s the truth I had known way before this country started to burn
Way before you yourself spun the wheels of crushing fate
I knew it all before I made the choice to stand for what I believe
Perhaps sparing me was your greatest mistake, one that sounded your doom
A man who’s known as a devil of ten heads for his wisdom was so far-fetched
As a musician renowned, did you ignore how a wrong note can wreck the whole song?
An astronomer who made no mistakes, a man who could bend the world’s laws
Did the fog of greed hide the signs or is there something I’m unaware?
A ruler, a strategist, a warrior known for his might
An ideal king who yearned to make his country the greatest of all
An emperor who raised the kingdom from zilch, by means of his might unafraid
Was taking her an act of greed or another step for the peak?
I’m starting to doubt if it was a mistake or threads of prewoven fate
Regardless if you chose to die by that bow or it was just a simple misstep
I will not regret the choices I made trusting my morals, not love
That’s not to say I’m not hurting within, but I’ll walk down this path that I made
As the one who’s obtained the crown and the kingdom you left
Heavy as it may, I will not falter and aim to protect what you have built
I promise you this, your life will not turn into lies from that final mistake
Your raise, your reign, your fall, all will be known in its glory for ages to come
