Warhammer 40K - Corvus Corax - Shadow of Deliverance

[Verse 1] Born in chains beneath a poisoned sky In the dark where broken angels cry I learned to crawl before I learned to stand Learned to kill before I held a hand They named me ghost, they named me curse A silent blade in a dying verse When the Emperor came, I took his name But I kept the dark, I kept the shame I freed the slaves, I burned the throne But victory still tastes like bone Every son that I command Is another sin upon my hands [Chorus] I am the shadow of deliverance I am the whisper before the war I am the knife in the heretic’s prayer The raven knocking at damnation’s door I am the guilt I cannot outrun I am the sins of the Raven Guard I am the ghost of what I’ve done I am Corax, broken and scarred [Verse 2] I tried to forge them strong and true But the gene-code screamed, the nightmare grew Twisted sons in broken skin My failure carved in bone within I watched them die, I heard them beg My dreams still walk on shattered legs The Emperor’s science, my desperate lie Built only monsters doomed to die So I buried hope in silent graves And taught my sons to stalk like shades If I cannot save their souls Then I’ll damn the ones who hold the throne [Chorus] I am the shadow of deliverance I am the whisper before the war I am the knife in the heretic’s prayer The raven knocking at damnation’s door I am the guilt I cannot outrun I am the sins of the Raven Guard I am the ghost of what I’ve done I am Corax, broken and scarred [Bridge] Lorgar! I come not as a brother. I come as judgment. In the warp I hunt, in the dark I reign A living curse, a walking pain No crown, no throne, no absolution Only claws and retribution You took my faith, you broke my sons Now I am what you’ve made me become A shadow with a righteous cause A god shaped wound with raven claws [Final Chorus] I am the shadow of deliverance I am the end you cannot see I am the last confession You’ll ever scream when you meet me I am the guilt I cannot outrun I am the war that never ends I am the ghost of what I’ve done I am Corax, and I remember them [Outro] In beak and claw, in endless night I hunt the traitor, I hunt the lie Not for hope. Not for peace. Only for the debt... that never sleeps. #warhammer #warhammer40k #warhammercommunity #warhammermusic #ravensquad #corvuscorax #grimdarkfuture #metal
