The Mountain Lyrics
Storm coming in me, bad weather just makes me breathe
Watch as the sky turns grey, life ebbs and flows away
Wait, before I
go, I'll make them all eat crow
Play the hand life deals, everything my way, now kneel
I'm a tree, roots firm in dirt, I've
had my share of hurt
Move fast 'cause the time is short, 'cause the time is short
Don't ask me to lose 'cause I'm born now
to win
And I'm building this mountain from outside within
All you outsiders, you haters and liars
Your time is just
counting so come meet the mountain
Storm, strength coming on strong, rain wash away life's wrongs
Willing straight from the
start, strike fear into their heart
Sometimes you wish you'd never been born but then here comes the storm
And just as the
sky turns black, the voices say attack
Move fast 'cause the time is short, 'cause the time is short
Move fast 'cause the time
is short, 'cause the time is short
Don't ask me to lose 'cause I'm born now to win
And I'm building this mountain from outside
within
All you outsiders, you haters and liars
Your time is just counting so come meet the mountain
Come meet the mountain
Falling, life
Life ebbs and flows away
Don't ask me to lose 'cause I'm born now to win
And I'm building this mountain from
outside within
All you haters and liars just come meet the mountain

great song, i love it. i think it's telling that you have to go on even if all crushes, you'll be just stronger with this troubles, you'll be the mountain.
"All you outsiders, you haters and liars Your time is just counting so come meet the mountain"
I think it means to repent for your sins and change yourself for the better ("come meet the mountain" which might mean God) because you don't know how much more time you have.
