Sovereign Immunity
by Darth Nihlus
Lyrics
[Intro - cinematic hybrid choir swell, distant sub-bass heartbeat, reversed Melbourne bounce synth fragments, 80 BPM]
[Verse 1 - eerie trippy dubstep wobbles, half-time trap hats, low male vocal in reverb]
They built a throne of tempered glass
Where every crack is paid in cash
The marble floors reflect the blame
And every mirror hides a name
We bow before the velvet rope
While justice wears a dollar coat
The gavel cracks but never lands
It only echoes in our hands
[Pre-Chorus - rising hybrid choir layers, filtered Melbourne bounce pluck rising, tension snare rolls]
They draw the line in liquid gold
And call the poison “protocol”
We reach but every finger folds
Into a fist that can’t be sold
[Chorus - massive Melbourne bounce drop, distorted trippy wobbles, cinematic choir stabs, sidechained supersaw]
Sovereign Immunity
The crown can never bleed
Sovereign Immunity
Above the law they feed
We scream into the static
While power signs the deed
Sovereign Immunity
We are the ones who plead
[Verse 2 - darker, half-time dubstep groove, chopped vocal chops, gritty bass growls]
They legislate the weather now
And sell us back the rain somehow
The scales are bent, the truth is leased
The courtroom wears a golden fleece
We file our souls in triplicate
While angels sign the waiver script
The verdict floats on corporate wings
And lands on those who own the strings
[Drop / Chorus - full Melbourne bounce energy, aggressive trippy dubstep bass, hybrid choir shouts, glitch vocal chops]
Sovereign Immunity
The blood won’t stain their hands
Sovereign Immunity
They redraw all the plans
We riot in the silence
While mercy breaks its bands
Sovereign Immunity
They never have to stand
[Bridge - stripped Melbourne synth arpeggio, lone female choir voice, sparse 808 heartbeat]
If the law is just a language
Then who writes the alphabet?
If the throne can choose its damage
Then how much blood is left?
[Final Chorus - cinematic hybrid choir explosion, layered Melbourne bounce and dubstep wobbles, massive reverb tail]
Sovereign Immunity
The sky belongs to them
Sovereign Immunity
We’re kneeling at the hem
We break but never enter
The kingdom they defend
Sovereign Immunity
This is how empires end
[Outro - fading hybrid choir, reversed bounce synths dissolving into sub-bass drone, distant heartbeat slowing]
