Victory's Supposed Ring

Lyrics. Recent, from this year (2014) or past year. Enjoy!

Verse 1:

I see your eyes of remorse

I see your eyes of shock

Heck, that is right!

I have arisen over your mock!

 

Refrain:

People underestimate

People try to throw you under the bus

But don’t bow your will

 

Arise, conquer, do battle!

Throw back that worker’s shovel!

You are not their slave anymore

 

Fly with eagle’s wings

For the sky, though dark, will bring...

Victory’s ring!

 

Verse 2:

Your hands no longer clench into fists

My heart is filled with bliss

My grin tight, straight, across my face

I have received freedom’s embrace!

 

*Repeat Refrain*

 

Verse 3:

My hatred growing

My black heart showing

The doors are slammed close

You will leave, your head against your toes

 

I have arisen!

Over you!

I have arisen!

Over you!

 

*Repeat Refrain*

 

Bridge:

But in the silence of these flames...

My fingers untangle

My wrinkles relaxed...

Then, my heart skips a beat

My wrinkles curl again

Have I become my traitor?

Have I betrayed true wisdom?

My pride won’t falter...

But my guilt continues to spurn

 

*Repeat Refrain*

Ending:

I have lost all my freedom,

In this fiery revenge,

For blindness cannot see,

That I have become my enemy

And the cycle begins again.

 

Love your enemies

Or lose the light

Love your enemies

Before your heart, is consumed by the night...

Oh, Lord, only You can set me right...

For my hatred continues to burn

Ever. So. Bright.
