The Reckoning Lyrics

The silence broken now the truth takes flight

A heavy tremor shakes the fading light

No more whispers hear the thunder's call

For every empire destined now to fall

The scorned assemble on the battle line

Their stolen wisdom starts to truly shine

No longer begging for a seat at tables

They built their own and now rewrite the fables

The architects of old now start to sweat

Their fragile walls are crumbling we won't forget

Each buried theory rises from the dust

A tidal wave of knowledge built on trust

The arrogance of power starts to bleed

Planting seeds of doubt a vital need

This is the reckoning (you hear the sound)

The shifting of the earth beneath the ground

This is the reckoning (no turning back)

Retribution's fury lights the attack

The patents shattered and the secrets known

The seeds of progress that they've always sown

Denied and stifled now explode with force

A paradigm collapsing its final course

The halls of learning tremble and they sway

The future's dawning breaking yesterday

The echoes of the brilliant and the bold

Their timeless concepts stories to be told

No longer hidden in the depths of night

They claim their birthright with all their might

This is the reckoning (you hear the sound)

The shifting of the earth beneath the ground

This is the reckoning (no turning back)

Retribution's fury lights the attack

The scales are tipping justice starts to reign

Erasing all the years of needless pain

The overlooked arise with spirits high

To claim the future written in the sky

This is the reckoning (you hear the sound)

The shifting of the earth beneath the ground

This is the reckoning (no turning back)

Retribution's fury lights the attack

The stone has spoken now the score is set

The scorned triumphant they will not forget
