Start a War
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
I remember when we ruled the scene
Back when we reigned supreme
Black words in golden speech
The weapons in our reach
Tell me did I stutter?
Did you hear me right?
As the crowd begins to roar
Tell me where’s the limit and I’ll tell you why
You will be shaken by the sound
‘Cos I’m gonna touch the sky
I’m damaging at my new discipline
I’m telling you
Can you smell the blood that’s in the air
It’s ours but we don’t care
Burning the resistance to the ground
In line to claim your crown
Tell me did I stutter?
Did you hear me right?
As the crowd begins to roar
Tell me where’s the limit and I’ll tell you why
You will be shaken by the sound
‘Cos I’m gonna touch the sky
I’m damaging at my new discipline
I’m telling you I’m gonna touch the sky
I’m falling out where I was falling in
I’m telling you I’m gonna touch the sky
If you’re gonna start a war
You better know the choice you made is one worth fighting for
You can have your ground
‘Cos when I touch the sky I’m taking everything you’ve got
Tell me did I stutter?
Did you hear me right?
As the crowd begins to roar
Tell me where’s the limit and I’ll tell you why
You will be shaken by the sound
‘Cos I’m gonna touch the sky
I’m damaging at my new discipline
I’m telling you I’m gonna touch the sky
I’m falling out where I was falling in
I’m telling you I’m gonna touch the sky
