Justice out of grasp
The struggle remaining
Unbroken by time the dominance straining
They come from the water
They crawl from the sea
Greeds ugly face
Descends on the free
He watches dawn break over mountains
He watches waves cross over the sea
Looking down on the streets below him
He watches the waves break at his feet
I know it's been a long time since I live with them
It's been a while since I've tasted defeat
Sometimes it's hard to remember where I came from
You think I might have some sympathy
These ropes bind
My hands and mind
My desire is much too strong
You know I'm laughing now
That I have a song to sing
You know you can't lash out
I am your lord
I am your king
Is there a man in the world that can resist corruption?
Man begs for wealth not for equality
You have watched the towers being built around you
The walls of silent security
These ropes bind
My hands and mind
My desire is much too strong
You know I'm laughing now
That I have a song to sing
You know you can't lash out
I am your lord
I am your king
A letter came today
A summons to the stand
Blood stained and soaked in pain
It's not what I had planned
I cannot get away
The times draining like sand
They were not my concern
Why would I give a damn
I don't care about their life
I don't care about their suffering
I just care about my stride
I just care about my company
My rien will carry on longer than the sun
These ropes that cling to me will not become undone
And I wonder
If I win this
Will their spoils be payed
I will carry
My throne onwards
Till I enter the grave
And I wonder
If I win this
Will their spoils be payed
I will carry
My throne on wards
Till I enter the grave
