The Fire Within

The Fire Within

Taste the fire feel it burn
Know my name I shall return
Rain starts falling from the skies
The flame it flickers and it dies
I am the hate you feel within
I am the reason that you sin
I am the hate the lust the greed
I am all you'll ever need
Fate is laughing hear his call
Forever taunting each and all
Start the fire watch it burn
Take my hand take your turn
See the life that you have had
Looking back it wasn't bad
So here's the future try again
In my shadow you can win
Take the spinning sphere by storm
Let the fire keep you warm
Show them how to play the game
Don't let them forget your name
