The God You Kept Demanding

가사

[Intro] I counted every promise carved into the stone Watched you crown your hunger, then call the ruin home The heavens held their silence; I gave you room to change Now patience has a funeral, and mercy bears my name [Verse 1] You built your little kingdoms out of borrowed breath Sold the fields for silver, taught the young to worship death I sent a thousand warnings through the heat and through the flood You answered with a banquet set beside a river of blood [Pre-Chorus] Do not mistake my stillness for surrender Do not confuse the dark with being blind I have heard each prayer you made to power I have weighed each soul you left behind [Chorus] Kneel when the sky splits open Kneel when the bells all fail The hand that hung the planets Has come to tip the scale No more speeches, no more bargains No more crowns upon the cruel I am the storm you summoned I am judgment breaking through [Verse 2] You called yourselves eternal while your monuments decayed Put locks upon the harvest, let the starving watch you feast You dressed your lies in holy cloth and sharpened every creed Then wondered why the garden died beneath your iron feet [Pre-Chorus] I gave you dawn after dawn to remember Gave you blood and bone and room to mend But every bridge became a weapon Every warning met a polished end [Chorus] Kneel when the sky splits open Kneel when the bells all fail The hand that hung the planets Has come to tip the scale No more speeches, no more bargains No more crowns upon the cruel I am the storm you summoned I am judgment breaking through [Bridge] Look up See the throne you thought was empty Look up See the fire behind the blue I am not your distant myth I am not a whispered rule I am every debt returning I am done forgiving you [Breakdown] You had the sea You had the seed You had the chance to choose what mercy means You had the hour You had the light Now face the consequence you dressed in white [Final Chorus] Kneel when the sky splits open Kneel while the mountains wail The hand that hung the planets Has come to tip the scale No more speeches, no more bargains No more crowns upon the cruel I am the storm you summoned I am judgment breaking through [Outro] When silence fills the ruins Remember what you knew: The god you kept demanding Was listening to you
