Ode to the Shadows
We were born
With no silver spoons
Just the bitter taste
Of a dead man’s moon
The city bore us
In canals we were raised
We rule these paths
As rats and decay
(the crows remember)
(the crows remember)
We are the filth
That feed your trees
Catch a pigeon
Let it sleep
From dark we rise
From blood we reign
With golden seals
And silver chains
(the crows remember)
(the crows remember)
Friend or foe
Your time has come
Pay your dues
The deed is done
Watch the streets
And watch the sky
Cross us once
We dare your try
(the crows remember)
(the crows remember)
Just finished reading a book and it gave me feels so here ya go
