Hey guys! If you are new here, welcome! If you aren't, then you should know that I'm trying something new here. This is my first time doing song writing. As a writer, I've always been curious about the art of song writing and wanted to try my hand at it. Natewantstobattle, one of my favorite YouTubers, does a lot of music that is inspired by things like games, movies, and tv shows, and it inspired me to try something similar (seriously check out his stuff, it's fantastic). This song is actually intended to have a kind of similar style of music to his, so listening to some of his songs, particularly "Monster Inside", might give you a better idea of where I was going with this as far as the sound. Speaking of which, please keep in mind that I am NOT a musician. I can't play any instruments, can't sing very well, and if you were to ask for sheet music then I have absolutely nothing for you. I just wrote lyrics and have a sound for it in my head, so please don't judge me too harshly, although constructive criticism is always welcome. But I've rambled enough, let's just get onto this. Hope you like it!

"Reclaim" An Avatar: The Last Airbender song

Verse 1:

I remember when life wasn't so dark

When I had a mother a brother a father

And I would play with turdleducks in a park

But things changed so violently

When all I knew faded away

It all disappeared into the fire

When I lost my honor on that day

Chorus 1:

why must I feel so empty

Why must I feel so lost

I know there is something missing

But what will finding that thing cost?

There is only one person on my side

That believes I am the prince I claim to be

But the irony of it all

Is that it isn't even me

So I will burn away the old

I will reclaim my throne

Verse 2:

It's so hard when the world is against me

When I always have to run

But I will be like an invincible dragon

And rise up like the sun

I make my way around the world

Trying so hard to find

The one thing I need to fix what's been broken

The avatar will be mine

Chorus 2:

why must I feel so empty

Why must I feel so lost

I know there is something missing

But what will finding that thing cost?

There is only one person on my side

That believes I am the prince I claim to be

But the irony of it all

Is that it isn't even me

So I will burn away the old

I will reclaim my throne

Bridge:

I've gotta struggle, gotta chase, gotta fight

I've gotta prove that I was always right

I can't give in when the world pushes down

If I stop then my doubts will make me drown

This war within me is making me break and bend

No matter what it seems this nightmare never ends

Now it's up to me to fix what my father had torn

And like a phoenix, I SHALL BE REBORN

I CAN TAKE NO MORE

(guitar solo)

(softly)

Now that the battle is over

And I know the deed is done

I still feel so empty inside

Have I truly won?

I finally see what I always should have known

What my uncle kept trying to teach me to do

To let go of the flames inside of me

And let my spirit free into the blue

Chorus 3:

why must I feel so empty

Why must I feel so lost

I know there is something missing

But what will finding that thing cost?

There is only one person on my side

That believes I am the prince I claim to be

But the irony of it all

Is that it isn't even me

So I will burn away the old

I will reclaim my throne

Chorus 4:

why must I feel so empty

Why must I feel so lost

I know there is something missing

But what will finding that thing cost?

There is only one person on my side

That believes I am the prince I claim to be

But the irony of it all

Is that it isn't even me

So I will burn away the old

I will reclaim my throne

So I will burn away the old

I will burn away the old

This scar burns so cold

I will reclaim my throne
