Pride & Fear

Pride & Fear - TheFatRat/Riell

Lyrics by：Christian F J Buettner/Riell Phillipos

Composed by：Christian F J Buettner/Riell Phillipos

Once a realm on the shoulders of giants

Forged with ember and gold

An empire stood through the clouds it was endless

Stories of peace it foretold

Where sea meets sky emerald water in moonlight

Mountain tops kissed with snow

People held up the legends of bounty

Reaping the peace that they sowed

But one by one in secrets planted greed

And watered it with pride and fear

Seasons changed like the turning of tides

The blossoms started to fade

The air grew heavy electric in warning

The greedy knelt down and they prayed

They begged for peace for the legends of bounty

No one planted or sowed

The secrets grew like the storm in the distance

Came to collect what they owed

But one by one in secrets planted greed

And watered it with pride and fear

The poisoned fruit fell not far from the tree

The fiend that nobody could see

Once a realm on the shoulders of giants

Forged with ember and gold

Now a lost land it's fading in silence

Haunted by demons and ghosts
