Tyrant
Hear my words; Listen to me,
We are nothing if not free
You think you know what hand I've been dealt
You cannot understand the shame I have felt
Treating people as if they were rats
Stepping on their pride like they are floor mats
Play with our emotions, push us around
Bringing us one step closer to the burial ground
Enjoy our shame, Laughing at our pain
All our hard work was done in vain
Release us from our bonds, the rope has left a burn
Tired of being chained to a cause that makes our stomachs churn
You lured us in with false security, speaking nothing but lies
We once loved you, now we despise
You have turned into a Tyrant
Us, the people, our slowly turning defiant
Tired of our chains, We come together to destroy, to win
Say goodbye to your throne, time to pay for your sin
