Here's to the Reckoning Lyrics

You've covered me in shadow
You've shrouded me in flame
I've been torn before
I've collapsed beneath the weight of shame
But when I'm lying in the dirt
It's comforting to know
Your attempts to ruin me only strengthen my resolve

You hold claim to no one but hide it with deceit
You'll fail, you'll pay, you'll fade away

I will play a part in nothing less than your defeat

To strong to fall into the mechanism made by you
I'm not your puppet, not your toy and I'll never be your whipping boy
These hands aren't yours and they're not mine
But I use them now to draw the line
This is a force you cant destroy and
I'll never be your whipping boy
No, never

I am not your whipping boy

I will rise, I will rise above you for you are beneath my feet
All these scars, scars you gave me remind me of my undying faith
So hear me when I tell you this war has just begun
When the battle ends and the smoke has cleared I'll ask you who has won
