Akbaria Victorians Anthem

**Verse 1** They carved their vows in headlines bold, Eyes gleaming like cheap chrome, Promised roads where the roses grow— Now the asphalt’s cracked with bones. Schoolyards silent, factories rust, A town drowned in their hollow trust, *“We’ll lift you up!”*—the speechwriter’s hymn, While the soup-kitchen lines grow grim. **Chorus** Oh, the paper crowns bleed ink and scorn, Their palaces built on the unborn, Blood on the marble, dust on the poor— We’re the wreckage they ignore. Empty hands clutch phantom dreams, As their golden machines scream, *“Broken promises, borrowed time—* *We sell the air, we profit the crime.”* **Verse 2** They dance in suits stitched with our sighs, A masquerade of alibis, Pocket the sun, tax the rain, Turn our tears to a champagne chain. A child’s hunger pays their debt, While the newsreels chant, *“No regrets!”* They auction the dawn, lease the night— Freedom’s a candle they’ll never light. **Chorus** Oh, the paper crowns bleed ink and scorn, Their palaces built on the unborn, Blood on the marble, dust on the poor— We’re the wreckage they ignore. Empty hands clutch phantom dreams, As their golden machines scream, *“Broken promises, borrowed time—* *We sell the air, we profit the crime.”* **Bridge** *Do you hear it?* The whispers underground, A fist of roots breaking their hollow ground, Every lie they stacked to the sky, Now trembles—*watch their towers die*. The fire we are, they tried to smother, But ash breeds forests… *sisters, brothers*. **Outro** So let their crowns burn, let the vaults drown, We’ll plant new worlds where theirs fell down, For every soul they turned to coal— **We are the light that eats their throne.**

[Verse] Born in bondage chain on her soul But fire ignited broke all control Underground railroads a path to the skies Defying the darkness where freedom lies [Verse 2] A whisper in shadows became the roar Each step a rebellion against the war Guiding light for hearts so torn Crafting a legacy where hope is born [Chorus] Harriet's uprising shake the ground A fire in the hearts where courage is found Chains can't bind a soul set free Her spirit's the song of destiny [Bridge] Through the night she carried dreams Risking it all for what freedom means A beacon piercing a shroud of lies Harriet's spirit will always rise [Verse 3] Enemies hunted but she pressed on With every step fears were gone A light for the broken a voice for the mute Her strength a flame none could refute [Chorus] Harriet's uprising shake the ground A fire in the hearts where courage is found Chains can't bind a soul set free Her spirit's the song of destiny

**Title: "Reality of Light"** **Verse 1** In the quiet of the midnight hour, When the world forgets to breathe, Shadows dance like broken flowers, And the heart bends beneath. **Chorus** Oh, sadness is only a reality, Not the whole of who we are, A whisper in the symphony, A single fallen star. **Verse 2** But the dawn will crack the silence, With a light that’s soft and sheer, Every storm has its expiry, And the pain, it disappears. **Chorus** Oh, sadness is only a reality, Not the end of where we’ll go, A chapter in humanity, A scar that lets us grow. **Bridge** Hold on, the night’s a fleeting canvas, Where the brave reclaim their fire, From the ashes of our anguish, We soar—*higher, higher, higher*. **Instrumental Break** *(Melody swells, echoing hope)* **Outro** So let the tears carve rivers, But don’t drown in what they say, For sadness is a reality… And reality can *change*. **Final Chorus (Softened)** Oh, sadness is only a reality, But love’s the truest part, A heartbeat in the dark’s fragility— We’re stardust, meant to *spark*.

[Verse] Tate was cruisin' seas with gold in his hold Head high sails wide stories untold But the thunder cracked wild waves took their toll He stood at the helm like a man touched by soul [Chorus] Spin the wheel hold tight don’t let it go The storm’s got teeth and it’s stealing the show Grip your courage while the waters roar low Tate the sailor fighting fate's undertow [Verse 2] The cannons roared flames kissed the sky black Enemies loomed close no thought to turn back He laughed in their faces “You’ll not break my track” But danger grinned sharper and prepared its attack [Chorus] Spin the wheel hold tight don’t let it go The storm’s got teeth and it’s stealing the show Grip your courage while the waters roar low Tate the sailor fighting fate's undertow [Bridge] Deep in the chaos he whispered his vow “I won’t quit this journey not then and not now” The sea threw its demons but he didn't bow Through salt on his wounds he'd figure out how [Verse 3] With a flash came a gale that spun the ship round Deck cracking thunder the only sound But through all the wild out of loss was found Tate rose through the tempest his fury unbound

[Verse] Long roads turning dust in the wind Rusty swings where dreams begin Faded photos tucked away in time Echoes of youth when the stars aligned [Chorus] Sing it loud feel the fire inside Memories ride on the changing tide Years roll on but the heart won’t fade Echoes of yesterday we’ve made [Verse] Hands once rough now soft with age Life’s a book we've scribbled every page Knotted trails but we made it through Everything old still feels brand new [Chorus] Sing it loud feel the fire inside Memories ride on the changing tide Years roll on but the heart won’t fade Echoes of yesterday we’ve made [Bridge] Hear the whispers in the autumn breeze Every scar tells a story with ease Time keeps moving but the soul stays still Chasing shadows on the far-off hill [Verse] Campfire nights with the crackling sound Youthful laughter forever unbound Ashes rise yet the flame remains Carved in stone are the joys and pains

Guarda il cielo Senti il vento Prendi il sole Con le spalle Questa vita che non muore Ma è di là Che c'è l'immenso Che tutto ha senso Che c'è l'amore quello vero...

[Verse] A wolf's howl cuts through the gale so wild Eyes like fire salty and beguiled With an eyepatch grim and a barnacle belt In darkened tides their legend’s felt [Chorus] Raise your peg legs and swords to the sky Beards of thunder howl till we die Wolves of the waves hunt treasure untold Pirates forever both fierce and bold [Verse 2] The creak of the deck the sea’s lullaby Barnacles cling as the mast reaches high A dance of blades in the moonlight’s glare Wolf-pirates roam with a fearless stare [Chorus] Raise your peg legs and swords to the sky Beards of thunder howl till we die Wolves of the waves hunt treasure untold Pirates forever both fierce and bold [Bridge] The sea's cold bite the scars we wear A patch for an eye a leg stripped bare We roam as beasts through endless waves Loyal to none not even the graves [Verse 3] The beard bears salt from the ocean’s kiss The clash of swords sings a pirate's bliss With wolves at our backs and steel in our hands We carve our tales on the shifting sands

Yeah, I'm over it, can't hide the scars, thought we were friends, but girl, you went to far. You played the part like a queen on her throne, acting so tough, but you're all alone. I'm done with the games, the lies and the pain, thought you were my friend, now I'm feeling drained. You say you're great, but it's all just a show, behind that smile, I see the shadow that you throw. You're just a Royal Bitch, trying to make everyone know you're name, all that glitter ain't gold, you're the one to blame. I fucking hate you, can't take no more, should've never trusted you, walked right out that door. I hate you, I hate you, let it echo so clear, you hurt everyone, now it's time to disappear. I hate you, I hate you! Royal Bitch, this is my debut. I hate you, I hate you! Cutting ties, now I'm breaking through. Yeah, no more tears I'm reclaiming my power, facing my fears. You thought I'd stay quiet, just take all your shit, but I'm rising up strong, and now I'm calling it quits. Masked in your royalty, you played a cruel game, but the crown isn't heavy when everyone else is taking all the blame. I thought you were my friend, but it's all in the past, friendship built on trust, is now shattered like glass. Don't need your drama, don't need your lies, I'm moving on, now it's time to rise. I fucking hate you, can't take no more, should've never trusted you, walked right out that door. I hate you, I hate you! Royal Bitch, this is my debut. I hate you, I hate you, this is my release, finding my strength, finally finding my peace and melody.

[Verse] I see the city it's a canvas of pain Graffiti on the walls but the struggle remains My girl she's a product of the system's design Told to conform but she's dancing out of line [Verse] Streetlights flicker like a ghostly sign She laughs at the clock says it ain't our time Living on the edge but we're feeling alive Against the tide babe we’re bound to survive [Chorus] Rebel at heart you can't chain the flame Breaking the rules yeah she plays her own game The world’s a cage but we'll shatter the bars We're under the streets but we're reaching for stars [Verse] Concrete jungle got a rhythm so wild Her voice cuts through like a runaway child The echo of whispers the thunder of feet Together we rise in the heat of the beat [Bridge] We'll paint a new dawn over shadows of doubt Rip the silence open screaming loud No one remembers the ones who obey So we’ll write our anthem in life's sharp disarray [Chorus] Rebel at heart you can't chain the flame Breaking the rules yeah she plays her own game The world’s a cage but we'll shatter the bars We're under the streets but we're reaching for stars

[Verse] Charging forward across the sky A blazing streak we can’t deny Bound by courage hearts align Together we will rise and shine [Verse 2] Metal warriors hear our call No foe too big no fight too small Through storms and danger we will dive Our strength combined we come alive [Chorus] Volt up high with sparks that fly We’re reaching for the endless sky Side by side we’re strong we’re free Unity's the key to our legacy [Verse 3] Through the darkness through the fray We’ll pierce the night and bring the day We’ll stand tall through thick and thin The power’s always deep within [Bridge] Every piece a perfect gear Running strong without the fear Together we’re a perfect chain We’ll keep on fighting through the pain [Chorus] Volt up high with sparks that fly We’re reaching for the endless sky Side by side we’re strong we’re free Unity's the key to our legacy

[Verse] Lights dim cold air cuts the room silence pounds The roar ain't for him no more echoes drown The champ’s gone AWOL throne left to rust The fear sets in respect turns to dust [Verse 2] Hustle's faded truth's been erased by pride Loyalty broken like the waves at low tide Hands high they called but he turned away A shadow looms where the light used to stay [Chorus] You can't see him mask where the heart used to be Hustle loyalty respect just an old memory Champion’s glory gone like the crowd's last cheer You can't see him now lost in the mirror [Verse] The sweat on the mat was once his gold crown Now the volume of truth has been turned way down The script rewritten lines crossed and blurred Hands that clapped now just toss bitter words [Bridge] Echoes of the crowd haunt empty halls Portraits on the wall appear ten feet tall He can't pin his doubts can't silence the shame The ring's just a cage when you forfeit the game [Chorus] You can't see him mask where the heart used to be Hustle loyalty respect just an old memory Champion’s glory gone like the crowd's last cheer You can't see him now lost in the mirror

How’s high school been since I stopped walking past your house? You missed me then, do you still need me now? I don’t doubt it I don’t doubt it Cause snowflakes never fall from the sky in LA Just like you can have what you want, but you can never make me stay Cause ohhhhhhh You know how to get me alooooone Cause I wore some extra colors today that was a big mistake, big mistake I don’t know how you keep coming around, but please go away, go away I’ll lock myself in my bedroom for decades, decades I don’t know what it is You want from me but if it’s a friendship, keep dreaming, babe How’s your social life been since I walked out and locked the door? Are you still making waves in the asylum we were fighting for? Cause you have some extra gears In that little shell you call a brain And I don’t have time to stick around For your little games, Your little games Ohhhh Cause I wore some extra colors today that was a big mistake, big mistake I don’t know how you keep coming around, but please go away, go away I’ll lock myself in my bedroom for decades, decades I don’t know what it is You want from me but if it’s a friendship, keep dreaming, babe
