Rise & Fall
The more I think about it all,
I witnessed both your rise and fall,
Now you've got me backed against a wall,
I'm having trouble standing at all.
I know that your origin
Was built upon hate and sin,
I know all the mistakes you made,
And I never forgave,
You hurt me to get to the apex,
You didn't know what would happen next.
I know that when you fell,
You were trapped in your own Hell,
I know every time you think about me,
You should have set me free,
You made me into something I'm not,
Which made me leave you to rot.
The more I think about it all,
You deserved the rise less than the fall,
Now I need to break from this wall,
Forever I'll stand tall.
