Fountainhead

Here I am

The hammer strikes one-two-three

I'm impatiently tapping my feet

In a murmuring room full of critics and fakers

All waiting to take their seat

The focus of the room

All bating breath

Waiting on a single word

That could spill from my mouth

That would give them a reason

To take me for all I'm worth

I took the oath to tell the truth

So freely, I'll tell you this

My path's my own and mine alone

You won't understand

You want what I am

Forgetting the man inside

I'm calling you out

So try, take me down

I took infinity from the sky

And I made it, I made it my own

But not for you to turn into

Your personal property

I, I will outlast the turning of time

And I know that you're

Know that you're scared of me

And what I can achieve

But I won't be waiting

I don't use your lungs to breathe

Your feet can't walk for me

So tell me

Where you take your right to my mind?

Brought the sky down on our heads

Never mine to claim, you said

So tell me

Where you take your right to my freedom

My cause for creation, my mind

My direction, my life?

Unlock and engage

When everyone's equal

But no one's the same

We give what we choose

But we give what we want to

And not to be used

I took infinity from the sky

And I made it, I made it my own

But not for you to turn into

Your personal property

I, I will outlast the turning of time

And I know that you're

Know that you're scared of me

And what I can achieve

But I won't be waiting, oh

I'm the one who lit the fuse

I'm the one who pulled it out from under you

I'm the one who wears the consequence

I'm the one who will stay true to myself

So I'll wish you all well

But I'll take my ideas with me

You won't understand

You want what I am

Forgetting the man inside

I'm calling you out

So try, take me down

I took infinity from the sky

And I made it, I made it my own

But not for you to turn into

Your personal property

I, I will outlast the turning of time

And I know that you're

Know that you're scared of me

And what I can achieve

But I won't be waiting, no
