Awake

So She Dances

Peyton Parrish - Holy Like You

[Verse 1]
Static crackles whispers through the air
Spin the dial chasing that electric flare
Voices humming out from some far-off land
Radio waves carving lines across the sand

[Verse 2]
Echoes twisting like smoke in the night
Melody grabs me pulls me into flight
Fingers tap the rhythm on the dashboard frame
Every song different but the soul stays the same

[Chorus]
Tune in turn on let the speakers roar
Foot tapping heart thumping can't ignore
Sounds rolling like thunder filling this room
In the radio's glow under the soft-lit moon

[Verse 3]
Golden years spinning out in stereo dreams
Lost in the haze carried by sonic beams
Cruising highways headphones are a crown
Each track a heartbeat as the city winds down

[Bridge]
Crackling speakers shouting stories untold
Songs of revolution new and bold
Running on frequencies we'll never lose
Broadcasting truth in the grooves of our shoes

[Chorus]
Tune in turn on let the speakers roar
Foot tapping heart thumping can't ignore
Sounds rolling like thunder filling this room
In the radio's glow under the soft-lit moon

Embark on a sonic journey of faith with "Pressing Toward the Mark," the new 10-track album from Chris Manning.

This album is a deep dive into the foundational scriptures that guide and strengthen our walk with Christ. Each song, from the anthemic declaration of "The Armor of God" (Ephesians 6:10-18) to the ultimate promise of "All Things New" (Revelation 21:4-5), is crafted to be a personal anthem for your own spiritual journey.

The sound of the album blends an intimate, worship-forward core with sweeping cinematic and atmospheric textures. It’s music designed for both personal reflection and corporate praise, created to lift your spirit and ground your soul in the unshakable truth of God's Word.

My prayer is that these songs meet you wherever you are, offering strength for the struggle and hope for the road ahead. Let this be a soundtrack for pressing toward the mark of the high calling.

Blessings,
Chris Manning

Pressing Toward the Mark

All Things New

"Blood and betrayal turned Rome from republic to empire." - National Geographic
"A cinematic metal epic about Power, Betrayal & Legacy - Caesar's Rome told as thunder, choir and truth" -  AxAxC

IMPERIVM: Blood of Rome is AxAxC’s cinematic war-saga: a 13-track ascent from Veni, Vidi, Vici to the Ides and beyond. Built like a documentary set to blades and choirs, this record fuses Christian Rock • Deathcore • Nu-Metal • Symphonic/Cinematic metal with trap-core pulses, Latin chants, and battlefield drums. It’s Caesar’s story told in real dates, real battles, real consequences — and the mirror it holds to our present.

Across Italy, Greece, Egypt, and Hispania, the album follows the rise, the civil war (49–45 BC), the dictatorship (46–44 BC), the Ides of March (44 BC), the vengeance at Philippi (42 BC), and the legacy that crowns Augustus. This is historical metal, just blood, law, and destiny.

Personal note from AxAxC: this project carries the nostalgia of a father’s films and the reality that ambition invites knives. IMPERIVM is for anyone who builds; who believes anyway.

- VENI. VIDI. VICI. — 47 BC; Zela (Pontus)
Caesar’s famed dispatch after defeating Pharnaces II (“I came, I saw, I conquered”). Opens the saga with the certainty that defines his rise.

- CAESAR’S THRONE (Remastered) — 59–50 BC; Rome & Gaul
From his consulship (59 BC) to the Gallic command (58–50 BC), triumphs, and the cult of persona that made him inevitable.

- The Die Is Cast (Alea Iacta Est) — Jan 49 BC; Rubicon, near Ariminum (Rimini)
Defies the Senate’s order; crosses with a legion and triggers civil war. No return.

- BLOOD OF ROME — 49–45 BC; Italy, Greece, Egypt, Africa, Hispania
Civil-war arc in hard dates: Dyrrhachium (48, Pompeian edge) → Pharsalus (48, Caesar wins) → Pompey assassinated in Egypt (48) → Thapsus (46) → Munda (45). Republic broken.

- JUDAS IN THE SENATE (Remastered) — 50–44 BC; Rome
Hostility in the Curia: indictments, intrigues, and the moral panic around “king” that seeds the conspiracy.

- FIFTEENTH OF MARCH (IDES) — 15 March 44 BC; Theatre of Pompey, Rome
Assassination: Brutus, Cassius, over twenty conspirators; 23 wounds; the act meant to “save” the Republic.

- SENATE OF SERPENTS — 46–44 BC; Rome (flashback dossier)
Dictatorship and reforms: Julian calendar, land/provincial reforms, public works (Temple of Venus Genetrix), then the move to dictator perpetuo (44 BC) that precipitates the knife.

- Idus Martiae! Caesar mortuus est! (feat. Pure Addiction) — Alt cut of 44 BC scene
Choral/trap dirge of the Ides—same day, different lens; grief, shock, and the crowd’s turning tide.

- I AM JULIUS (POST IDUS) — 44–42 BC; aftershock
The revenant speech: legacy claims (calendar, laws, roads), propaganda wars, and the truth that “they killed the man, not the movement.”

- MARCH OF THE LEGIONS — 44–42 BC; Macedon & Greece
Antony and Octavian avenge Caesar; the two Battles of Philippi (Oct 3 & 23, 42 BC); suicides of Cassius and Brutus. The conspirators’ end.

- LEGION (Remastered) — Timeless creed
Eagles, standards, formations; the soldier’s oath that outlives politics.

- THE FALL OF ROME — 44–27 BC → 27 BC
From chaos to order: Octavian consolidates, and in 27 BC becomes Augustus; the Republic’s ghost yields to the Empire.

- IMPERIVM — Epilogue/Credo
The price of will. Empires fall; purpose endures. Title motif that binds our personal thesis to Caesar’s arc.

Verse 1
The skyline bends, reflection fades,
truth looks different in the haze.
I built my faith on fragile glass,
now I’m watching the color crash.
You said the cracks just let light in —
but I can’t tell where to begin.
Every step’s a haunting sound,
in the silence, I’m unbound.

Pre-Chorus
If we shatter, will we shine?
Can I still call what’s left mine?

Chorus
Under fractured light,
I see the pieces start to breathe.
Every broken shape of me
still burns to believe.
If the world caves in tonight,
I’ll find my way through the debris —
’cause even shattered,
I can still see.

Verse 2
Your voice still cuts through static air,
a tether pulling me somewhere.
The weight of dreams we left behind
still hums like power lines.
I’ve tried to run, I’ve tried to stay,
both roads led me the same way —
to the truth beneath the ache,
that breaking’s just another way to wake.

Pre-Chorus
If we shatter, will we shine?
Can I still call what’s left mine?

Chorus
Under fractured light,
I see the pieces start to breathe.
Every broken shape of me
still burns to believe.
If the world caves in tonight,
I’ll find my way through the debris —
’cause even shattered,
I can still see.

Bridge / Breakdown
(guitars swell / ambient reverb / soft scream harmonies)
Let the fall become the sound,
of everything we’re breaking down.
We were never meant to stay whole —
just to find the light in control.

Final Chorus / Outro
Under fractured light,
I’m not afraid to bleed.
Every scar’s a map that leads
back to who I need to be.
If the dark pulls me inside,
I’ll still burn endlessly —
’cause even shattered,
I can still see.
