Lyrics Forged in Crimson

Lyrics

Hello, everyone! Sicycre here.

Today, I have a burning desire to share the lyrics for Forged in Crimson from the Mount Ordeals trial introduced in Patch 6.3!

20230208_mt_EN.png

Allow me to share just a little history really quick. This song is based on "Battle with the Four Fiends" from FINAL FANTASY IV, which was arranged and given lyrics!

The arrangement was created by Japanese musician Kenichi Maeyamada, with lyrics drafted by FFIV game designer Takashi Tokita!

The title alone serves to get your blood pumping but let's read over the lyrics themselves.

Forged in Crimson

Fears rise, blades fall
His void calls

Fires blaze, waters rage
Gods above are deaf now to your cries (deaf now to your cries)
Earthen scourge, gale winds surge
Look within and seek your own salvation
Do you claim to have the strength to brave the flames of battle, conquest, death, annihilation

Here souls weep, sorrow steeped
Wherefore would you mourn the coming dawn (mourn the coming dawn)
Save your tears, face your fears
In despair you will find no safe harbour
Dare to stoke the fire in your soul, make keen your blade, stand fast or die bereft of honor

In the darkness be by fear consumed
Hearts turn cold where naught ever blooms

Elemental fury given to flesh
Raw strength on a level mere mortals cannot contest
The embodiment of earth─earth, wind, water, and fire

Fears rise, blades fall
His void calls

Flames consume, tides subsume
Cut down all who would dare hold you back, prove there's naught you lack
Earth befouled, fierce winds howl
Face hell now to prove your will unyielding
You must walk this path alone, but know that you are not the first nor last to seek purgation

Flames consume, tides subsume
Cut down all who would dare hold you back, prove there's naught you lack
Earth befouled, fierce winds howl
Face hell now to prove your will unyielding
You must walk this path alone, but know that you are not the first nor last to seek purgation

In the darkness be by fear consumed
Hearts turn cold where naught ever blooms

Elemental fury given to flesh
Raw strength on a level mere mortals cannot contest
Steel your soul or ever burn─burn with boundless ire, forged in crimson fire

These powerful lyrics meld perfectly with the melody and rhythm of the song and certainly paint a picture of Rubicante's might as an overwhelming combatant!

If you're full of fiery enthusiasm to listen whenever you want, then you'll be glad to hear that "Forged in Crimson" is now available on our latest downloadable mini album. Be sure to check it out!

We'll be sharing the lyrics for another song soon, so stay tuned!
