SWANKY DANK ft HIRO (MY FIRST STORY) - Sink Like A Stone

Every secret burns. Every lie falls. Truth remains.

Lies Built in Ashes

Requiem for the Republic is a thunderous and reverent exploration of American courage, conviction, and sacrifice. Blending metalcore aggression with symphonic grandeur, the album stands as both a lament and a celebration of the nation’s unbreakable spirit. Each track resurrects a defining era, from the fires of revolution to the beaches of Normandy, honoring the men and women who carried freedom on their shoulders. Through soaring melodies, punishing breakdowns, and lyrical oaths to faith, duty, and perseverance, Requiem for the Republic captures the heartbeat of a people forged in liberty and tested by time. This is not just history retold, it’s the sound of a nation’s soul, roaring through the centuries.

LYRICS:
Always you’re there with me when my real story moves on
We will keep on fighting all the time starting now

Nankai datte ushinatta mono ni tachimukatte
Zenbu keshisatte omoidashita

There’s nothing to change in me
There’s nothing to change in you
What is the correct answer?

Kanarazu…

Ima kuchihateta sadame no naka de tatakai nagara teniireta
Boku no inochi o sasageru hi made
This is my only way
Konomama…

I will stay alive praying for myself
I will stay alive praying for myself
Someday I will only stop when you’re completely gone
Where do you then go and what are you looking for?

Tooku natta mirai no boku o oikoshitakute
Onaji-iro ni somari dashita

There’s nothing to change in you
There’s nothing to change in me
What is the correct answer?

Ichido wa…

Hakanaku saita towa no chikai ga kare hateta mama naiteru
Aoi kakera o atsumeru hi made
This is you & me now
korekara…

I will stay alive praying for myself
I will stay alive praying for myself
One day I just kept looking up to the sky
What do you take and what do you lose again
You know? You know? You know?
I know!!
‘Cause I will need to protect someone now for sure. Right?
This decision needs to be made on today
I’ve tried to imagine it over 100 times
Nobody knows this story that I will put into an end start it over again

Ano hi no boku wa doko ka tooku shiranai basho de mezameta
Mata omoide no naka o sagasu no

“Tatta hitotsu no inochi de…” Yeah

Nureta sekai wa boku hitori da to omoi tsudzukete ita kara
Boku no subete o ukeireru nara…
Nan sen, nan hyaku, nan juu, nan’nen datte

Kanarazu michi no saki ni aru kara akiramenaito kimeta yo
Saigo no yume o kanaeru hi made
This is my only way
konomama…

I will stay alive praying for myself
I will stay alive praying for myself
