I Will Conquer You

I'm standing on the brink of something
Another life laid out for me

I look around to try and see the signs
They're more obscure than they were before

I question all my reasoning
Yet I reach the same resolve

Flashbacks, always haunting
Darkness fills an empty hole

Is this perhaps my undoing
Or simply always what was meant to be

I carry with me, just a dream
It is I who must make it come true

Here I go, fear do not hold me back
Conquer you, I will

So deceive me, I know that you will try
Give me your everything and more

I am stronger than you think I am
It's time to crush you beneath my feet

My wings, I have now spread them out
Watch me take to the air and fly

I shall look down at all that is beneath me
And realize you are meaningless

Look at how high I have gotten
I've reached a place you'll never be

Continue on in your own failure
For you can never change your name

Success is what I reach for
I cannot have that with you near

To the victor go the spoils
Enjoy the table scraps I've left behind
