Lyrics
Ironwill
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Life comes and goes, quick as does the day
Greed, for those who know is just a step away
Time's a breathing bomb, going with the flow
Stand atop it all outside the status qou
No see, no speak then know where you're goin'
Drag your feet then nothing you're showin'
Take your face and stand where you're dying
(chorus)
Living in a hole is taking its toll
My iron will's in position
Seize you are not owed, stand or fall
And refuse to be denied
Pride is all in vain without the blood of need
Bones can break in shame from taking charity
Hide from all the hell and wash up with the tide
Wait and you commit psychological suicide
Break the molds of beg and submission
Wake the dead or no one will listen
Holding ground is just the beginning
It's uphill buond and in for the killing
