Unveiling Betrayal: Embers of Retribution
Lyrics
Listen close
Expressing a call for attention and focus.
My ears have been burning for a while now
Feeling intense emotional discomfort or sensitivity for some time.
Since learning about how you tear me down
Acknowledging the emotional impact of being criticized or belittled.
You expect me to bow down and do nothing
Rejecting the expectation to submit without resistance.
I'm riled up inside its woken something
Experiencing heightened emotions or motivation as a result of the situation.
The sharp tongue used to cast your blame
Noting a change in communication style, suggesting a more aggressive tone.
I'll rip it out your mouth if you keep saying my name
Expressing a strong reaction to persistent negative mentions or gossip.
Go
An abrupt directive, possibly signaling a breaking point.
The threads are woven
Highlighting the inevitability and interconnectedness of life events.
Fate cannot be turned
Emphasizing the inability to change predetermined outcomes.
You've cast your last stone
Conveying a sense of finality and consequence for actions taken.
And now the world will burn
Suggesting a dramatic, destructive aftermath as a result of past actions.
You live your life without integrity
Criticizing a life lived without moral principles.
Stripped from all personality
Describing a loss of individuality and uniqueness.
Now the masses are headed to calamity
Warning of impending disaster caused by the collective actions of society.
You're not a prophet you're a siren of catastrophe
Comparing the person to a misleading force of destruction.
So stake your claim whatever that may be
Encouraging the person to assert themselves, but with a call for honesty.
But only the truth will set you free
Emphasizing the liberating power of truth in contrast to falsehoods.
The threads are woven
Reiterating the inescapable nature of destiny.
Fate cannot be turned
Reaffirming the inability to alter predetermined outcomes.
You've cast your last stone
Repeating the idea of facing consequences for actions taken.
And now the world will burn
Echoing the anticipation of widespread destruction.
So sing your song and tell your lies
Encouraging the person to speak their truth, despite the consequences.
You're a victim of your own demise
Declaring the person's downfall as a result of their own actions.
Listen close
Repeating the call for attentive listening, underscoring urgency.
Listen close to my final message
Signifying the importance of the upcoming message as a final statement.
The threads are woven
Reiterating the inescapable nature of destiny.
Fate cannot be turned
Reaffirming the inability to alter predetermined outcomes.
You've cast your last stone
Repeating the idea of facing consequences for actions taken.
And now the world will burn
Emphasizing the anticipation of widespread destruction.
So sing your song and tell your lies
Encouraging the person to speak their truth, despite the consequences.
You're a victim of your own demise
Declaring the person's downfall as a result of their own actions.
You've slandered my name
Accusing the person of damaging one's reputation for selfish reasons.
For your own selfish gain
Highlighting the selfish motives behind harming someone's character.
If you believe your life is worth saving
Challenging the person to seek redemption through humility and prayer.
Get on your knees and start praying
Urging the person to acknowledge their need for salvation.
Go
An emphatic directive, possibly indicating a departure or conclusion.
