I stand before you as a sinner A motherf**ing heathen dragged face-first Down the road of treason Bound for the bowels of hell I'm always one step out of reach From the hand of God You would never sleep If you knew what's in my mind My vile thoughts You would never close your eyes I walk in the shadow of heaven's light Hood up; head down Take a closer look into my eyes There is a part of me I can't hide Bring the pain! Turn and run while you still have a chance I feel from grace and I'm not going back You come to me with the image of a better life I'm f**ing fine with the life I have I would rather burn than spend Another second by your side
In the valley of d**h, I cast a shadow to block out the sun I am a monster accepting what I have become My faith was drowned in a sea of doubts Now the thorn-littered road is my only way out So I push on, iron-willed, demonized Tongue forged in fire; hate in my eyes Celestial supremacy replaced with gloom Inhale aggression and exhale doom From the gutters, we rise Into darkness, descend Never meant for the light Through your bonds, we transcend There is no time for sleep Just to reclaim the streets How can you look down on me? When I've buried you under my feet So I push on, demonized Tongue full of fire Hate in my eyes!
