Chess King (How The Story Began) lyrics

[Intro]

[Chorus]
Born beneath a silent moon
Ascending to the throne so soon
A pawn to power
A masterful plan
How the story began

[Verse 1]
Ivory towers pierce the sky
Secrets whispered as the ravens fly
An orphan found, a flicker of light
Taught the moves in the darkest night
He learned the gambits, the traps, the lies
The cunning in his calculating eyes
Each piece a soldier, each square a war
He knew his dеstiny was waiting at the door

[Chorus]
Born beneath a silеnt moon
Ascending to the throne so soon
A pawn to power
A masterful plan
How the story began
[Verse 2]
They mocked his name? They scorned his claim?
Said he was just a player in the game
But with each victory, the whispers grew
A silent terror, sharp and new
His mind a fortress, impenetrable and deep
Where fallen kings are doomed to sleep
Chess King, the chessboard gleamed, a battleground laid
For the crown he coveted, a promise to be made
His heart a stone
Forever alone

[Guitar Solo]

[Verse 3]
He faced the master, old and wise
Whose eyes held centuries of victories and lies
The final battle, the ultimate test

[Chorus]
Born beneath a silent moon
Ascending to the throne so soon
A pawn to power
A masterful plan
How the story began
