Ravenstrikex - The Quiet Before Iron (Part 2)

Pop in the ass when the shouting stops.
Hold what you built when the pressure knocks.
Mine is worth
This sleepless road.
Mine is worth a
Heavy load.
Why should
I shake while he
Walks tall?
Let him wonder who comes
When ravens call.
I know the price.
I
Know the strain.
I'll make what
Comes away again
I used to hate what readiness stole.
The quiet meals, the easy jokes
The way your eyes kept checking
Doors like calm could not be trusted anymore
But now I KNOW WHAT DRIVES YOUR HEAD
YOU'RE not chasing war across
The land.
You're keeping war away from home.
That's what matters.
No throne, no
Praise, no tail to sell.
I know
This road, I know it well.
I sharp and steal because
I care.
And if he comes
He finds me there.
Let the dragon out
For once.
And give me half that
Weight tonight.
I'm not behind you.
I'm
Beside your ro is mine.
When mornings
Turn, your shield is mine.
When war
Drums burn, we can be tired and still be ready.
We can feel the ground
Unsteady and plant both seeds there anyway
Right here
Sharpen the axe when the shouting stops
Start what you built.
When the pressure
Knocks, ours is worth the sleepless road.
Ours is worth a heavier load.
What should we shake while he
Walks tall?
Let him wonder who
Comes when
Ravens call.
We know the price.
We know the strain.
And we won't give him our heads again
I won't fight him twice in my mind
Then save that strength for when it's time.
Shield a step forward heat
