elxi - paws of the tyrant (a tribute to bartholomew kuma) lyrics

Loading...

[intro ]
in sorbet’s hush beneath opal glass…

[verse 1]
he bore a hymn, etched in iron skin
a priest of dusk where truths run thin
cradling futures like contraband weight
his mercy cracked beneath the magistrate

[pre+chorus 1]
when ruin marched in saintly guise
he stood where kings refrained from ties
with paws not meant to maim or plead
he caught the strike no child should need

[chorus 1 ]
paws of the tyrant, ripped through design
a martyr veined in the regime’s spine
he held the surge in bowed dissent
and paid in volts what war had spent

[verse 2 ]
beneath the vault where monarchs lied
he signed away his breath to bide
they crowned him null through legal smoke
but all he kept were fragments broke
[pre+chorus 2 ]
he gave them light through ruptured steel
and cracked his form to help her heal
forgotten slow, redrawn by place
he knelt, unmasked, without a face

[chorus 2]
these paws of the tyrant broke the flood
with hands that never drank in blood
under vaulted glass, his vow remains
a father etched in hidden veins

[bridge ]
time turns fathers to prayers withheld
each breath he lost, a shield she held
he rewrote silence with severed time
for the child fate left behind

[final chorus]
paws of the tyrant slice through the veil
holding futures none could trail
paws of the tyrant, cast in grace
he gave them breath…
(and left no trace)

[outro]
if justice fails the debt he bore…
let mercy speak what he stood for
