lyrics

LYRICS:

This is the kingdom of hell,
And it is safe to say that I have yet to live,
Fighting for nothing, this battle cannot be won.
But now I know exactly where I belong,
And I will leave my mark.

You will remember this face.
It’s time to stand up for who we are.

For those who try,
For those who fight,
It’s not about what you take with you,
It’s what you leave behind.

Forget who you were before,
Nothing is what it seems.
Forget who you were before,
You’re exactly where you need to be.

Stand up.
This is the dawn of a new crown.
Stand up.
You won’t find a king here.
Stand up.
Get off your knees.
From now on, we will bow to no one.

Cast out, we’re swimming on from here,
We will flow with the current, or drown in the tide.
We will bring ocean to shore,
And we will make waves.

This is the kingdom of hell.
This is an army of hell raisers.

Burn the throne.
Stand up and fight.

How many times will I fall, before I learn to land on my feet?
I will forget who I was; I am exactly where I need to be.
