Before the Fall and Justice For All

they say pride comes 
before the fall
who will be there for you 
if there is anyone at all
surely things can not go on 
as they have done all along
where tyrants reign and 
justice is merely feigned


don your armor and 
prepare your swords
for the things i speak 
are not merely words
i challenge you to fight the war
the dawn is coming and
soon you will see
your cruelty will no 
longer be endured
