Destiny's called us
It's the reckoning
This time it's for blood
Don't tread on me
Revenge is not justice
It's the reckoning
This time it's for blood
Don't tread on me
You went too far this time
for this heinous crime
You will know defeat
Begging on your knees
One by one you'll fall
Your back against the wall
Nowhere to turn
You're sure to burn
Destiny's called us
It's the reckoning
This time it's for blood
Don't tread on me
The hours close at hand
We'll make our final stand
Justice shall be done
Nowhere to run
True evil broods in you
You're just a brainwashed fool
The coward close that hides
Spewing forth his lies
Revenge is not justice
It's the reckoning
This time it's for blood
Don't tread on me
Born of destruction, bred in agony
Is this my salvation?
From these ashes, i am your devastation
If it was up to me
Eye for an eye I'd seek
But the high road we will take
Lady Justice is at stake
The Judgement has been made
In blood it shall be paid
Death knows what to do
The horseman comes for you.
Destiny's called us
It's the reckoning
This time it's for blood
Don't tread on me
Revenge is not justice
It's the reckoning
This time it's for blood
Don't tread on me
