Lyrics:

Born in a prison, I've known darkness all my life
Survival, violence, and salvation keep me breathing
Turn my body into a weapon, sharpen my mind
Focus and conviction are my path to power

Climb

Rise from the pit, a colossus

With venom in my veins, I am beyond a man
I am the monster in the shadows
Never will I see the light
I answer to no one
Brute force and tactics you will never overcome

Even mammoths pale in strength
I am more than just a symbol
I am the bane of all that you could ever hope to see
I allow no one to stand between me and my ambitions
I welcome the challenge and laugh at your best efforts, in vain

Break the hero

Fucking weakness is all you have to show
Your mind as brittle as your bones
I'll crush them with your soul

Lift you over my head and drop you on my knee to hear the snap
Feeling your spine break is bliss I never knew

What you thought you were is something I have always been
Darkness, my home where I will sit upon my throne

I grant you my permission to die

I would kill to silence a grating voice
Darken the eyes that dare look at me
The mask reveals the face underneath the skin

The true heir to the spoils of the world
Break peace, a myth that deters strength

Only once you've made the climb can you stand before me
An equal, a war of gods where only one will walk away
Born in darkness, we will never see the light
Born in darkness
