Proud from Everest by Dead NoVa

Is this the american condition
Or just another global remission
Eat back all the nice words that you said
Pray away all the sins that we've bleed
Bullet casings worth their weight in gold
Eat all the lies you've been told
Sell an ounce of flesh for a day in the sun
But when it's time to collect turn tail and run

Standing proud like a king
At the top of your ladder
Crying orders to the world
With your ill-begotten power

Today is the day
That your regime will fall
Stand tall
And answer to us all
Cause you let the world down
Committed sin on hallowed ground
Now you fear the sound
Of the world led against you

Standing proud like a king
At the top of you ladder
Crying orders to the world
With your ill-begotten power

If I find meaning in the blood bath
Tell me does that make me a psychopath
Or are you afraid in the face of righteous wraith
The coming storm, the beast on the warpath
I will decide my own transcendence
And knock you off your path to ascendance
But you'll never knock me down now
Never knock me down now
Never knock me down now
Cause I will fight for my rights
