Watch You Fall

You lied.

You cheated.
You stabbed us in the back.
And somehow you thought we'd stay down?
 
FUCK THAT.
 
Aggressive rap/nu-metal
Snake tongue, fake smile, poison in your teeth
Talkin' like a king while you're crawling underneath
You sold every promise, betrayed every friend
Burned every bridge just to get ahead
You played both sides, thought nobody knew
But every dirty secret came crawling back to you
Built your whole empire on bullshit and blame
Now you're standing in the ashes screaming somebody else's name
 
[Pre-Chorus]
 
You wanted us buried
You wanted us gone
But every fucking scar
Only made us strong
 
WE WON — YOU FAILED!
Now choke on every lie you made
You threw the knife, we took the pain
But we're still fucking standing anyway
WE RISE — YOU FALL!
Now nobody believes you at all
Backstabbers, cheaters, cowards and frauds
You tried to break us
BUT WE FUCKING WON!
 
Cheater with a halo, liar with a grin
Always playing victim when the walls close in
Point another finger, rewrite another scene
Anything to keep those dirty hands looking clean
But truth doesn't die just because you hide
And karma doesn't care how well you fucking lie
You thought betrayal made you powerful somehow
Funny how the people you stepped on
Are looking down on you now
 
You wanted us broken
Face down in the dirt
But you gave us a reason
To turn pain into worth
 
WE WON  YOU FAILED!
Now choke on every lie you made
You threw the knife, we took the pain
But we're still fucking standing anyway
WE RISE  YOU FALL!
Now nobody believes you at all
Backstabbers, cheaters, cowards and frauds
You tried to break us
BUT WE FUCKING WON!
 
Every lie...
Every knife...
Every time you smiled while twisting it inside...
We remember.
 
You thought we'd disappear.
You thought we'd surrender.
You should've fucking known better.
 
 
LIAR!
Your kingdom's coming down
CHEATER!
Look who's laughing now
TRAITOR!
No one left around
You dug the fucking grave
NOW LIE IN IT!
 
WE WON — YOU FAILED!
Your little fucking game is over
We survived everything you did
And came back meaner, stronger, colder
WE RISE YOU FALL!
 
Watch your fake world fucking crawl
You gave us hell
We walked straight through
And when the smoke clears
 
WE'RE STILL HERE!
WE'RE STILL LOUD!
WE'RE STILL STANDING!
AND YOU'RE NOTHING NOW!
 
You lied.
You cheated.
You stabbed us in the back.
We survived.
You didn't win a fucking thing.
