Lyrics

[Intro]

[Verse 1]
I walk where no one dares to walk alone
Two swords drawn, the forest is my throne
Every cut I land brings soldiers to my side
One becomes a dozen, and the dozen multiplied

[Pre-Chorus]
You can't send just one to stop me
Send your best, I'll need them all

[Chorus]
The blade that raises armies
Every wound becomes a war
Ten stand ready at my signal
And your kingdom is no more
The green beneath the darkness rises
The trees that never kneel
March the forest forward — listen
The forest itself wields steel

[Verse 2]
The roots remember every empire that has bled
The canopy has buried every crown upon its head
I don't need your castles, I don't need your walls
I have ten who'd die for me, and that's enough to watch you fall

[Bridge]
One cut, one warrior born
Two cuts, the ranks have grown
By the time you count my children
You've already lost your throne

[Final Chorus]
The blade that raises armies
Every wound becomes a war
Ten stand ready at my signal
And your kingdom is no more
The green beneath the darkness rises
The trees that never kneel
March the forest forward — listen
The forest itself wields steel

[Outro]
The forest always wins
