The Return

- This song is based on a character created by my brother, Erik Larson.
---
In a time when only machines walked the earth, there was a great ruler named Scorpion. He was renowned for his cunning and strength, and also for his cruelty. One day, a group of his subjects rose up against him and, catching him by surprise, narrowly defeated him. They tore him apart and, believing him to be dead, threw him far out into the desert. And, in time, they forgot about him.
-
But Scorpion did not die, and he did not forget.
Though years passed, he thought only of how he would reclaim his city and punish those who stole it from him. Slowly, his scattered pieces conspired to recombine and to make the careful preparations for his return.

Lyrics:
Over sand,
Scattered far and wide,
Echoes of the ages
Whispering of time and tide...
This is my reunion
With the ones who threw me down,
Tore me up, cast me out
Of their pretty, little town
-
See this desert, see this land,
See it fall into my hand
-
There was a line twice crossed in the golden sand
Between the fires of perdition and the promised land
And if my soul pays the bridge toll, well
You better let me on over 'cause I'm ready to sell
I'm gonna take what's mine from thieving hands
And I will leave the rest to burn
And there will be no more resistance
Only fear and love at my return
-
Sand is giving way now
To a steady, drumming sound
It is the counting down to judgement
Of a metal heart beneath the ground
Look, you mighty, on my deeds:
Ruined now, but these buried seeds
Are growing fast; the roots take hold
And crack your city walls of old
-
The gears of time turn 'round again
I am much more than I was back when...
-
There was a line twice crossed in the golden sand
Between the fires of perdition and the promised land
And if my soul pays the bridge toll, well
You better let me on over 'cause I'm ready to sell
I'm gonna take what's mine from thieving hands
And I will leave the rest to burn
And there will be no more resistance
Only fear and love at my return
-
And when the dawn burns red with the fire of war
And when the walls give way and the cannons roar
It will be too late then to run and hide
'Cause when you hear me come a-knocking, I'm already inside
Up from your wellsprings and foundations
I will be everywhere you turn
And if you think that you'll defy me
Well, my friends, you'll learn
You're gonna help me start the fires
Or you will burn
And there will be no more resistance
Only fear and love at my return

Excuse me, WHAT?! You and DrScorpionX are *BROTHERS* !?
My mind's bloody blown at this....
same here dude, same here
I know it isn't my business, nor do I know him personally, but wherever DrScorpionX Is, I wish him luck. You've been gone from UA-cam for a long time, and everyone is worried about you. Wherever you are, whatever you may be doing, good luck on it. We'll be here. The Bionicle fandom never forgets those who stood with us! Godspeed Erik.
He is back
Rejoice for the king has returned
the timing on this is hilarious given that he just uploaded a comeback video.
The timing here is pretty nuts lol
The kings return
Who knew the Scorpion's return was foreshadowed two years ago
Halite G he told pony he has had it in the plans for 2 years the character in the description is named SCORPION,also btw pony is scorpion bro
@@Wamba610 For the record, I DID read the description. Even then, it's still amazing that this was foreshadowed two years ago
That what I said to my brother
@@halite_g No its his brother
I recognize that hand... alright fine, his return brought me here.
That's his hand from his 2nd variation
@@ultradriplorddk7800 no that’s his first
@@KaleKBK808 no. he has a video called "Bioformers: The Creator"
ua-cam.com/video/YV49DNTc9Ns/v-deo.html
wich came out way back then befor the other one did
ua-cam.com/video/T4G-xs_L4So/v-deo.html
Now excuse but..... WHAT?! The lyrics, the bio and the title makes me suspect his long awaited return, if so God damn God is real
One can only hope!
Your hope was well placed
Just took *2 freakin years*, but it was worth the wait
I am from the future. Our king has returned
GOD IS REAL. HE IS RISEN.
When I first heard this one, I thought it was a fan song, but I’m very impressed with this original character! And the song is wicked! You do great villain songs!
Villain? Oo
Hearing this played as the encore to the ponyphonic set at Galacon was absolutely Incredible, what an emotional masterpiece
Who’s here cause of the notorious bioformer mocist drscorpionX also that hand looks familiar
Sora Nura Sukimo ME,
Dude, this song was written for him
Edimcgurk’s Videos we know
NOTORIOUS?!
Ari Cohen yeah the guy made some really cool bioformer mocs
You’ve been under the rule of a despot for eons, your king exiled into the desert beyond. You and your people have been stripped of everything; protodermis, energy, weapons. Your homes are in shambles, and all have assumed the king to be dead. But just as his memory had been forgotten, you see a silhouette in the sunrise... the shape... it’s familiar... it’s him! The king has returned, and he’s looking greater than before (save for the hands)! The despot comes out with fear in his eyes, all the while, the people cheer, shout and chant the sacred name... Scorpion. Scorpion activates his new cannon, aims at the tyrant... and frees you from the age of misery.
Add this to the backstory in the description and we have a villian/anti-hero movie in the making.
I'll add my bit.
I leaned back in chair, expertly crafted, as I looked out at the desert beyond the walls. The peasants busied themselves beneath my clear window. After the overthrowing of the previous ruler, his name lost to history, me and my fellow soldiers lived in luxury.
My ears picked up a sound, a crowd of workers. They had stopped and looked out through the gate. It did not take me long to traverse me polish home to step out at the crowd that had grown much bigger. But, over the heads of the slackers, I saw him.
The gold shone in the harsh sun, his eyes glowing with a green hate, his huge form just as imposing as it had been all those eons ago. The people moved aside, leaving a straight path from me to him. We stared at each other, my body locked with fear and his eyes focusing on his target. His chest moved, is hands gave way to claws and a dreadfully familiar sight glowed green. It was not long before the light went dark and the sun faded from my dieing sight.
It's almost hypnotic this song
I cant stop listening
I used to remember downloading this song offline before it became copyrighted
I've been a BIONICLE fan since I was given my first, Gahlok! I started following the Brony fandom a couple years ago, even though I wasn't a fan of the show, because I was impressed with the art of the community. Now, here, they have unified into a sick piece! Great work, Phonic!
This song seems to be made for DrScorpionX, a moc creator channel on UA-cam. The description of this video as well as the latest video made that channel proves it.
@@RandomPerson-cm2wg That's why I mentioned BIONICLE! I actually came from his video to this one! I just didn't expect it to be an original made be his brother!
Ironic, my first Bionicle set was a Pahrak
It's crazy how such an awesome song wasn't made for a video game or a movie or even created by a music studio. It was made for a Bionicle MOC.
Neat little thing:
The hand in the thumbnail/image for the whole video is the same as the hand design for the older version of "Scorpion," with the Hordika-necks for fingers on the giant gear pieces.
Absolutely love the art of the original hand in the desert, cant wait to see DrScorpionX’s new fresh ideas
You know, I always said my life would be complete if Dane was cast as the Count of Monte Cristo. This is the closest we're getting, and goddamn right it was exactly as badass as I imagined.
I just wanted to make an edit to my original corny comment as of 2021 to say how technically impressive and gobsmackingly gorgeous this piece is. It remains my favorite song of all time and has been the key inspiration for a novel I'm in the process of writing. It's that kind of song that has so many layers and so much technical quality that you just never get sick of looping it.
I'm personally insulted that Dane isn't famous, let alone working for Disney or in Broadway. The Return is so clean, so well-composed that my music teacher of all people was surprised it isn't for a large-scale project. The dark western atmosphere is intriguing and Dane's voice, with nigh-operatic strength, carries it with a deep and commanding presence; yet he never gets too loud. The way he actively gets softer ("sand is giving way now/to a steady, drumming sound...") paradoxically enhances the menacing, quietly unhinged presence of the character he plays, which pays off as the dynamics turn to the authoritative belting of a revenge being enacted. The characterization is gorgeous, multifaceted and expresses very human pain, even if vengeful and ultimately of a cruel dictator. And don't get me started on the lyrics, I could make a university-length essay on them. With prose incorporating imagery of heaven and hell - "perdition" itself is an orgasmic word, I'll fight you - civilization and desert... Dane's lyricism is a force to be reckoned with. Alongside the biblical references, the western vibes in the composition itself really set off the imagery in a viscerally beautiful way.
Thank you, ponyphonic, for supplying us with your art, unmonetized, and horrifically underrated and unrewarded. I want to someday make an animatic for this, but I know with my skills as they are at the moment, I'll not be able to do this masterpiece justice.
Monte Cristo meets bionicle
Dr scorpion x send me here
And i love this song
Read the discription I think this isn’t a coincidence dr. ScorpionX
Their literally family
This song was MADE for him
Bloogi Bloo yeah
It really seems like Dr's bro predicted his return
@@fireninja1972 and father
After careful deliberation and listening to the song a good 50 or more times, I have come to the conclusion that this is the best song I have ever heard with a silly smooth guitar and equally brilliant vocal performance, not to mention the story behind it
The art is so good I didn't realize it was meant to be Scorpion. I thought Dr just found a fitting music piece.
That there is the hand of a legend.
This hand was foreshadowing the return of the legend
THIS IS AN EPIC SONG! Your brother was a big inspiration to me and happy he's back in action.
You just earned a ton of subscribers for knowing a great mocist
Obviously they know each over their brothers lmao
froglet does stuff not what the comment was saying but ok then
@@soranurasukimo1424 "for *knowing* a great mocist"
froglet does stuff oh right
The return... of Ponyphonic
YES! I'M NOT THE ONLY CRAZY ONE, SOMEONE ELSE NOTICES TOO!
And, after 2 years, the return of Dr Scorpion.
really interesting... loving the dark western vibe here
Who else stayed subbed to the Doctor all this time?
I just realized this song prophesied the return of him
I hear you buddy
#loyalty
@@anlydaly5726 my man. Hell yea.
This song is so much fun to sing to! The timbre, the wide variety of vocal expression, I love it! It's so powerful and you can feel this character's menace!!!
And I hope he will return.
Thank you ponyphonic ♡
Your songs are great and make me so happy ♡
This song is sick! I like the idea of lore for his mocs too!
Came from DrScorpionX's video and stayed because this song is frickin' amazing.
He returns after years of silence
This song and the story behind it are awesome I'd love to see a full story featuring this character. Awesome once again Ponyphonic.
Its about Dr. ScorpionX the person who created bioformers, probably ponyphonic’s brother or something
Just check the description and the video link
I know this comment was made 2 years ago dont complain
It boggles my mind on the amount of people who didn't read the description.
Ironic how Ponyphonic reappears with a song called 'The Return'.
Coincidental, not ironic. The difference is that irony implies an opposite where as coincidences are the same.
Bill Julia I can see that you’re one of the people who sees fit to correct everything incorrect on the internet even though the mistake isn’t really that important :/
Nope, just hate how "ironic" has been missused in the past few years.
And that's it's not a pony song
Dr scorpion x did the same
I am absolutely in awe of your work. Since I heard "The Moon Rises", I've been such a huge fan of your songs. You portrayed the emotions so well in this and in your others. If I ever wanted someone to write a song for a character I'd made I'd want you to do it
Still get shivers every time I hear this, on this vid and Dr scopinox's
Your song has revived a scorpion King, I will forever be thankful for that, Much love my lad!
I just realized. The description basically described Scorpions "The Return of Bioformers" video. That is some amazing foreshadowing.
I’m here for DR.ScorpionX return so epic
Edit the king of Bioformers
I come... from the future.
The King... Has Returned
Thank you for this marvelous piece, I'm hoping this will be your "return" as well.
Dr. ScorpionX anybody?
You saw the video that used this too, huh? This song was actually explicitly made for it! That’s some pretty nutso bonkers dedication to do it a year in advance. Anywho, this song is fantastic.
@@purplehaze2358 indeed!
It is Doc’s hand in the picture
I kinda love the implication that scorpion was an asshole, yet his return is still gone be glorious.
This could easily be in a Broadway play as the villain's big song, like Music Of the Night
this song is so freaking Epic
This song was great, I could almost feel the scorned ruler´s hatred. Scorpion´s return will be glorious!
Sobre arena
Esparcidos por todas partes
Ecos de las edades
Susurro del tiempo y la marea ...
Esta es mi reunion
Con los que me derribaron
Me destrozaste, me echaras fuera
De su pequeña y bonita ciudad
-
Mira este desierto, mira esta tierra
Verlo caer en mi mano
-
Había una línea cruzada dos veces en la arena dorada
Entre el fuego de la perdición y la tierra prometida
Y si mi alma paga el peaje del puente, bueno
Será mejor que me dejes pasar porque estoy listo para vender
Voy a tomar lo que es mío de manos de ladrones
Y dejaré quemar el resto
Y no habrá mas resistencia
Solo miedo y amor a mi regreso
-
La arena está cediendo ahora
A un sonido de tambor constante
Es la cuenta regresiva hasta el juicio
De un corazón de metal debajo del suelo
Mira, valiente, mis obras:
Arruinado ahora, pero estas semillas enterradas
Están creciendo rápidamente; las raíces se apoderan
Y romper las murallas de tu ciudad de antaño
-
Los engranajes del tiempo vuelven a girar
Soy mucho más de lo que era cuando ...
-
Había una línea cruzada dos veces en la arena dorada
Entre el fuego de la perdición y la tierra prometida
Y si mi alma paga el peaje del puente, bueno
Será mejor que me dejes pasar porque estoy listo para vender
Voy a tomar lo que es mío de manos de ladrones
Y dejaré quemar el resto
Y no habrá mas resistencia
Solo miedo y amor a mi regreso
-
Y cuando el amanecer arde rojo con el fuego de la guerra
Y cuando las paredes ceden y los cañones rugen
Entonces será demasiado tarde para correr y esconderse
Porque cuando me escuchas tocar, ya estoy dentro
De tus manantiales y cimientos
Estaré donde quiera que mires
Y si crees que me desafiarás
Bueno, amigos míos, aprenderán
Me vas a ayudar a encender el fuego
O te quemarás
Y no habrá mas resistencia
Solo miedo y amor a mi regreso
esta es la traducción al español
This is the first song I've ever heard that should be drscorpionx's theme song.
DrScorpionX
I could see this playing as Makuta Teridax takes over the robot and starts causing havoc all over the Matoran Universe.
This is truly a masterpiece. A song truly fit for any rebirth, well done my friend.
Peak song
im so happy
Dr. Scorpion X is back!!!
I think this is the closest there has ever been to a Bionicle fan song
A prophecy foretold.
The king has returned!
The god, the one they call “dr scorpion x” has returned
Love how the hand in the picture is the hand of Dr Scorps old Moc
Wait a second, is the one you call scorpion drscorpionx’s self Moc scorpion?!
Yes, this song was written about his character.
ponyphonic what????? So you predicted his return 2 years in advance? Or has he been planning his return for 2 years?
ponyphonic I could tell the hand is the same one for his moc
@@kripdom7778 I mean, their siblings, so if anybody would have known that far in advance it would be them.
A classic
*The gear on the back*
And so the legend named your brother makes a big return with this
Dr ScorpionX return
The King has Returned indeed
hol' up, THE Erik Larson is DrScorpionX?
Damn that's awesome!
Love this song and the stop motion by Dr. ScorpionX for it is amazing!
Is that Scorpion's hand? I Love the cool art story! (Even, The Desert. What happend to him?)
Great pace and Vibe going on here
Love the song
Great song
I love it! I was wondering if there was an instrumental cut. It is exactly what I've been looking for my D&D game but looping lyrics prove problematic. Of course I would credit you and let people know where the music comes from.
DrScorpionX is back into Action! :)
Wait I recognize that hand Dr. Scorpion X!?
According to the description, this is his IRL brother's channel! Also, go check out Dr Scorpion's channel... HE'S BACK!!!
@@xendordawnburst9969 I know
Here I thought that ham look familiar glad to see my suspicions were true those years ago. Return of the king. The doctor is back
Love this song
You have an excellent voice, sir. The rich timbre and mournful pitch bends fit quite well with the funeral march feel of the accompaniment. Gud shizz! 👍
Ahhh, still sends shivers down my spine after all this time.
That song describs for me the return of muzan and makuta
Dr.ScorpionX has been planning his return for 2 years and had something to do with this song that’s the only explanation he would return using this songs the discription tells of a hero named “Scorpion” and the hand out the sand looks just like scorpions hand or a bionicle hand btw prove me wrong
Cwill there’s no need it’s the good doctors
The song was LITERALLY made for Dr ScorpionX, do descriptions no longer exist to people?
PuppeteerGaming I know I was crediting the description you fuckin bone marrow transplant child
Lol I just found your channel after your comment on vivzie pop’s video and I saw you’ve uploaded 7mins ago so I stopped by to say hi ! And subscribe !
Check what he's made, you won't regret it.
Hi! Thank you :) Was it the comment about "Popular"? I love that video so much.
Dr. scorpion x is back
the return of the bioformer king
My bionicle has returned
This song is really good and i love the story about it, hope you do a video where Scorpion faces the person who destroyed him
Dude what an epic way to come back to UA-cam! Welcome back buddy!
I love the story it has a backstop to it and epic music for it the return of scorpion
Bought a copy after first play. Awesome track. Made me think of King Sombra and other villains wishing to rise again. Well done /)
I saw the robot hand in the sand and my mind immediately shot to Shadow of Israphel.
Major flavors of Elton John in this one. Brilliantly well done.
The return of the king
The hype was immeasurable and my 2020 was inhanced.
