Overthrow

I have felt both sides of a double edged blade. In the forge where I was crowned.
Everyone thought I was standing tall but I was crawling on the ground.
I created a mask to deny and deceive,
And I built this prison for the demons that are trapped in me.
Vapours of foul bats vow to consume me.
Noises of old rats set to gnaw through me.
Blinded by their shadows, and deafened by their screams.
The dead of night wages war inside of me.
Darkness is only the space between the light.
This pain only remains if you don’t face the fight.
I will overthrow all the negativity.
Break through the walls that hold you down.
Overthrow all that is consuming me.
Face your fears they don’t control you now.
There's a beast born in every man when lead leaves the chamber from the weapon in hand.
All the rage is boiling in your blood.
If you pray for the rain, you have to deal with the flood.
Waves of my regret vow to consume me.
I’ll never forget the pain that ran through me.
Wade through the wreckage and learn to reject it.
I’m the survivor, no longer infected.
Darkness is only the space between the light.
This pain only remains if you don’t face the fight.
I will overthrow all the negativity.
Break through the walls that hold you down.
Overthrow all that is consuming me.
Face your fears they don’t control you now.
Trapped in despair, a cycle going nowhere.
End this nightmare it no longer serves you.
Break through the walls that hold you.
Overthrow all the negativity.
Break through the walls that hold you down.
Overthrow all that is consuming me.
Face your fears they don’t control you now.
Break through the walls that hold you down.
Overthrow all that is consuming me.
Face your fears they don't control you now.
They don’t control you now.
