Dio AI - Slay The Demon

#dio #blacksabbathcover #ronniejamesdio #rainbow An anti-depression song and tribute to the late great Ronnie James Dio! *DEMON IN THE MIRROR* (Intro) Ride the thunder, hear the warning cry, A shadow waits beneath a blood-red sky. *Verse 1* It came at night with a serpent's grin, Whispered every doubt that lived within. Chains of sorrow wrapped around my soul, A nameless hunger trying to take control. *Pre-Chorus* But deep inside the fire still burned, Through every scar the lesson learned. *Chorus* Slay the demon in the mirror, Raise your sword against the pain. Stand and face the dark within you, Never bow, never break the chain. From the ashes of tomorrow, Like a phoenix I will rise. The demon falls forever, Beneath these blazing skies. *Verse 2* Blackened wings spread across my mind, A thousand voices saying I'd be left behind. But I heard the call from the other side, A warrior's heart that refused to die. *Pre-Chorus* The storm may rage, the night may swell, But I won't build my throne in hell. *Chorus* Slay the demon in the mirror, Raise your sword against the pain. Stand and face the dark within you, Never bow, never break the chain. From the ashes of tomorrow, Like a phoenix I will rise. The demon falls forever, Beneath these blazing skies. *Bridge* No master of despair shall wear my crown, No lord of shadows can drag me down. The beast is roaring its final breath, I stare it down and laugh at death! *Final Chorus* Slay the demon in the mirror, Let the battle cry remain. Every wound becomes a weapon, Every loss becomes a flame. From the ashes of tomorrow, Like a phoenix I will rise. The demon falls forever, Beneath these blazing skies.
