CROWN & FIRE
Letra
Intro – traditional pipes + cinematic atmosphere
Before the crown, before the throne,
There was an island in the sea,
Waiting for history to begin.
Verse 1
Rome left its mark upon the stone,
Viking sails crossed through the mist,
Kingdoms rose from fields of battle,
Ancient walls learned to resist.
Flags would change and kings would fall,
Fire tried to take it all,
Centuries came, centuries passed,
But this land was built to last.
Pre-Chorus
Invaded, divided,
Never erased.
Wounded by time,
But standing in place.
Chorus
Crown and fire!
Crown and fire!
The flame inside will never die!
Crown and fire!
Crown and fire!
Through the centuries, hear the cry!
England! England!
Through the fire, rise again!
Crown and fire!
Still she stands!
Still she stands!
Drop – pipes + electronic synths
Verse 2
Elizabeth faced the storm,
Other crowns watched ages turn,
Queens carried the weight of time,
While the pages changed and burned.
From the factories, a world was born,
Science reached beyond the known,
Poets, guitars, books and dreams,
Songs that crossed the seas alone.
Chorus
Crown and fire!
Crown and fire!
The flame inside will never die!
Crown and fire!
Crown and fire!
Through the centuries, hear the cry!
England! England!
Through the fire, rise again!
Crown and fire!
Still she stands!
Still she stands!
Build
Stone by stone,
Age by age,
Scar by scar...
Still she stands.
Break – instruments cut
Final Drop – pipes + synths + drums + choir
Crown and fire!
Crown and fire!
Still she stands!
Still she stands!
Sobre a música
“Crown & Fire”, de Fabeon, é uma homenagem à Inglaterra e à extraordinária história de uma nação moldada por conquistas, guerras, transformações e resistência.
Com uma produção eletrônica épica e dançante, marcada pela força da gaita de fole tradicional e pelos vocais de Alina Volkov, a faixa atravessa séculos de história, evocando invasões vikings, castelos, grandes rainhas, revoluções e conflitos que ajudaram a construir a identidade inglesa.
O videoclipe amplia essa jornada, conduzindo o espectador da Inglaterra ancestral à Londres contemporânea, passando por diferentes eras e símbolos de um país que deixou marcas profundas na história, na cultura e no mundo moderno.
Entre coroas e fogo, passado e presente, “Crown & Fire” celebra uma Inglaterra que mudou inúmeras vezes sem perder sua identidade.
Age by age. Scar by scar. Still she stands.
