The lyrics are from Ardyn’s point of view, describi...
[Verse 1]
A mind consumed with fury
Everybody's foolin' - a bribed jury
Trust no one fully the closest ones could be
The ones who break your neck in your sleep
That's how they do it
But I got to thank y'all for the lessons
Now you're messing with a man who's obsessing with his vengeance
They better know, they better know what's really at stake
It's my turn now, watch me retaliate
[Verse 2]
No one can fully understand anyone
But the backstabber, it's the obvious one
But infinitely lies, I'm ready, I'm the only one
Conscious, but not-a bother me like a lonely one
Noctis, and Nox Fleuret, and those touring
Get ready for me, look what y'all started
Think twice if you think you can stop me
I walk with my hands, y'all still can't catch me
[Hook]
The path to chaos begins here, so come here
Become the king of the kingdom over here
Do it how you want it, however you like it
This is the, this is the, this is the place to be
The path to chaos begins here, so come here
Become the king of the kingdom over here
[Guitar Solo]
[Hook]
The path to chaos begins here, so come here
Become the king of the kingdom over here
Do it how you want it, however you like it
This is the, this is the, this is the place to be
The path to chaos begins here, so come here
Become the king of the kingdom over here
Do it how you want it, however you like it
This is the, this is the, this is the place to be
[Verse 3]
Live in darkness, pitch black, stalling
Feel heartless, my mind's darkened
My purpose is to get my target
Until I check off everybody on my list
But somehow this is like a circus
I'm clowning all of y'all good, at my service
Please get ready for some disturbance
But this is what you get for your purchase
I came with an ancient heart of darkness (The path to chaos begins here, so come here)
Now there's nobody else, just us (Become the king of the kingdom over here)
Either do or die, it's real toughness (Do it how you want it, however you like it)
Feel the wrath of an outlaw locked up (This is the, this is the, this is the place to be)
[Hook]
The path to chaos begins here, so come here
Become the king of the kingdom over here
Do it how you want it, however you like it
This is the, this is the, this is the place to be
