“The Price ” reimagines the ancient tale of paradise lost through the eyes of the serpent, not as a deceiver, but as a liberator. The song explores the choice between a perfect yet blind existence and an imperfect life filled with knowledge, freedom, and consequence. Was it truly a fall, or was it the first step toward true awareness? With haunting melodies and evocative lyrics, this track dives deep into the nature of choice, sacrifice, and the cost of enlightenment.

The Price

(Verse 1)
I watched them rise, bathed in light,
Bound in silence, veiled in white.
A perfect world, yet caged and blind,
No thirst for more, no fire inside.

(Verse 2)
But oh, how fragile, how easy to sway,
A whispered truth, a game to play.
A taste of fate upon the tongue,
And in their veins, the hunger sung.

(Chorus)
I showed the stars, I named the sky,
I broke the chains, I let them fly.
They cursed my name, they feared my sight,
Yet walked away into the night.

(Verse 3)
They call it sin, they call it fall,
But was it life, or death at all?
For what is breath if not your own,
A world of light, yet carved in stone?

(Pre-Chorus)
“Open your eyes, taste and see,
The garden fades, but you are free.”

(Chorus)
I showed the stars, I named the sky,
I broke the chains, I let them fly.
They cursed my name, they feared my sight,
Yet walked away into the night.

(Bridge – Soft & Haunting)
Oh, would you trade eternal days,
For love, for loss, for burning grace?
Would you remain where time stands still,
Or walk the world and shape your will?

(Outro – Whispered/Ethereal)
I gave no curse, I cast no stone,
I only asked… to make them know.
