Ashes of the Altar

Verse

I was buried in bone,

Wrapped in sin,

Marked by the moon,

And baptized in flame.

The dead don’t sleep.

We wait.

We whisper.

We return.

Chorus

Ashes of the altar, blood on the stone,

I walk with the shadows, I rise alone.

No light, no mercy, no peace in my name—

Only silence, only pain.

Verse

You built your kingdom on broken backs.

You crowned yourself with stolen faith.

But I am the reckoning.

I am the sermon.

I am the flame beneath your throne.

Bridge

Latin whispers intensify

Drums pulse like a heartbeat

Voiceover:

“Come forth, children of the dusk.

Let the altar bleed.

Let the silence speak.”

Chorus

Ashes of the altar, blood on the stone,

I walk with the shadows, I rise alone.
