    This is a one-take performance off my second album, "Heavy Is The Crown." This album is part two of a five-part novel series I am writing called, "From Windfall To Hell." All songs are composed, written, recorded, and mixed by Justin Bonitz, and I programmed the drum/orchestra MIDI.

    Lyrics:
    "To your eyes, I might seem half alive
    But to me, fiction swirled and wrote my story
    -Possibly told allegory
    In hindsight, I should have stepped light
    But it's too late
    Deception had no meaning-the mask was torn
    I charged, for I'm no coward!
    But I suppose I failed
    I tried to take this hour!
    But I suppose I failed
    There's only so much amends can change
    Before boiling over
    And all that I'd gained meant nothing to me
    For I was left field
    Wanting to rid me of her haunting
    And nothing real could stop me!
    But the faster I'd run,
    The tighter the fangs of the crest took hold
    Wide-eyed and turned around
    A stone pound in the chest-denied and downed
    But I still wore my crown
    When all odds are stacked against me
    And all courage split,
    I’ll stand my ground with a prideful prowess
    -Heavy is the crown
    I thought that I was bleeding virtue
    Bakarum, bakarum
    But all I ever did was hurt you
    Bakarum, bakarum
    And as she plays her heart before me,
    Put to sleep by her song
    I promised never to desert you…
    Bakarum, bakarum!
    Still lying to myself
    Come join my treasured collection of tales
    Beneath the onus upon my height,
    Was there a sliver of the man I used to be?
    Wide-eyed and turned around
    A stone pound in the chest-denied and downed
    But I still wore my crown
    When all odds are stacked against me
    And all courage split,
    I’ll stand my ground with a prideful prowess
    Heavy, the sucker’s crown"

      How honored you must feel, to have inspired a new Linkin Park song almost 8 years later.
      Just know we remember who did it first 🤘

    imo the 2nd album was actually an improvement over the 1st.
    Awry Ascent was SO good and I didnt think improving over that was possible.
    But you did it!

    At 4:18 you can see all of Prill's helplessness and longing die as he accepts his reality and soldiers forward into whatever oblivion may await. If he's a sucker, then a sucker he will be.
