Fire With Fire

The world is burning. Fall asleep. Dream. Nightmare. You wanna know what I've been through? Been through pain you can't undo. The world is burning. Inhabitants of graves turning Sky falling Stars aligning It's my time for revenge. We've been a quiet mouse for too long The oppressive world was far too strong We couldn't speak out in our fear And now our time for vendetta draws near. You wanna feel our chains? They've been tightly shackling our brains. The rising of the Standing One is clear In a world of injustice and evil, he will soon appear Revolt and overthrow the tyrants Fight fire with fire. We will destroy currency The root of all evil and lunacy. We will free the world from its prison Unite all races in schism. Replace the crooks we have as dictators Erase those who turned our world into craters We will extinguish the fires Subdue the liars Establish a just system Become a righteous kingdom. And we will all Stand as one And establish the utopia we dreamed about. Dreamed. Dream. Now awake. Utopia? No such thing. I'm dreaming again. The world will continue to burn With no end, and no return.
