[Verse 1]
Out of a war there grew a people
Who emerged unlike the rest
There stood a queen who's hair was deadly
As the fire within her chest
Who's younger sibling could control the winds
With just a single breath
Who's bloodline of atellans[?] and madmen tried their best
To keep the peace above the caste of lower people under fist
Who fought against celestial beings emerging from the mist
We stand apart from petty struggles
Where society was wasted
Seeking peace and quiet times
Though at times had to face the fact
That maybe war was still the answer
And so we answered force with proportional force
Until they put their hands up
A family of beings didn't fit in any places
'cause our forms were scorned as different
From the marks upon our faces
So we stand together hand to hand back to back
Trapped within your kingdom from the forces
That sit waiting to attack
There in the shadows as I sit and take a breath and simply wait
When I speak I'll be handing you your fate
[Chorus]
I am a king without a voice
And so I speak through actions
Over warring factions
Reading your reaction
Silent for the fact I have my vocal chords relaxing
We aren't human, why you asking?
[Verse 2]
So I sit inside a tower
And I meditate the days to focus energy and discipline
To keep myself awake because I fear I'll fall to slumber
And I'll whisper in my sleep and my words will crumble cities
Crack the ground beneath your feet
My family is made of working class citizens
Turned to gods before the lights come on
When all the chairs you sit are filling in
Who travel eons to bring the good word to your ear drums
And scrap together lives in the cracks between the streets
From every city on the map
We bond together through the series of these interwoven
Fiber optic arteries in fact
Carry blood and oxygen to our brains
And feed our hearts with the veins
Some people call us insane and so we laugh
They don't understand our culture
Understand our legacy
Understand the loads on our back
That keep us heavy in our heads
And so I choose my words wisely
And when I speak not a person will deny me
[Chorus] X 4
I am a king without a voice
And so I speak through actions
Over warring factions
Reading your reaction
Silent for the fact I have my vocal chords relaxing
We aren't human, why you asking?
Out of a war there grew a people
