Never Needed It

Cut the talk
Cut the lies
Cut the crown
let it die
Cold-born
North-bred
Move silent - strike instead
You want darkness?
I came from it
Never needed your sun
- never trusted
that summit
Never needed
Never needed
Grew up
where the cold don't blink
White breath thick every
time you think
Black sky,
long nights,
no sightline clean
Learned to walk by touch
- no high beam
I don't chase glow
I measure the sight
Metronome stepper - pace hits right
Breath stay steady,
footstep mean
I don't need your
sun - just distance
and a beam
You blacked out half the map,
called it mercy and grace
While workers punch clocks
in a frozen place
Cloud drones circle
like kings on a ring
But every empire fall
that's a Northern thing
Northern thing
Northern thing
When the lights cut out
- who kept you fed?
Not your crown - it's
the hands you bled
Who held Tether
when the storm got mean?
Rig crews,
loggers - ghosts unseen
I ain't here
for your glory scene
Just a sightline locked
on the wicked queen
You killed the sun
I never needed the light
Whiteout vision - raised
in the night
Hold Tether
when the whole sky dies
North Star cutting
where your empire lies
K-k-k-kill the queen
down she go
K-k-k-kill the queen - overload
You burn worlds just to feel
like one
I ghost-walk cold,
move above your sun
Send your hitters - I
see kids in gear
Never felt cold,
never lived real fear
Forty below - we
one rope deep
Hold
that Tether - don't fall,
don't sleep
You built palaces off overtime bones
Turned tired backs into cornerstone
Your crown shine bright
when the court gets loud
But the port got
mothers doing double
for the crowd
I talk rig talk
- shift pay,
dock snow
Lunch cold,
boots worn - still we go
Your crown float high
on a working-man's sea
But I rose
from water you never
thought could freeze
From the freeze
From the freeze
Ever held Tether in
a whiteout storm?
Hold Tether!
Ever kept a brother's heartbeat warm?
Hold Tether!
Ever saw a tyrant
feed off your day?
Sight up - line up
- take back the chain!
I ain't here
for your royal scene
K-k-k-kill the queen!
You killed the sun
I never needed the light
Whiteout memory - forged
in the night
Hold Tether
when the whole sky dies
North Star cutting
through your palace lies
K-k-k-kill the queen - break
that beam
K-k-k-kill the queen - wipe
that screen
You burn worlds just to feel
like one
We ghost-walk calm till
the job is done
Every monster I line in red
Leaves shadows waiting in the
back of my head
If I drop this shot
and your reign goes black
Do I carry
that weight - can
I come back?
Don't want your throne
don't want your seat
Crowns melt men
when the fire meets heat
But
if I don't act
- the workers bleed
What's mercy mean
when the world can't breathe?
We don't bow to crowns
We hold Tether
Hold the ground
You killed the sun
I never needed its light
Whiteout heart - carved
from the night
Hold Tether
when the whole sky dies
North Star slicing
through your palace lies
K-k-k-kill the queen
kill the scheme
K-k-k-kill the queen
burn the machine
You burned worlds just to feel
like one
We ghost-walk straight till
the job is done
You killed the sun
I killed the myth
we needed one
