take this life high time

to rise above

take this life or die

the weak will fall tonight

take this life high time

to rise above

take this life or die

no weakness

did you ever have your back up against the wall?

then you know exactly what I mean!

desperation is still alive

live your life or die

and pulling a fast one on yourself

...but I swear, but I swear

I will find my way, I will rise

and I know in this society

the weakest go to the wall

take this life high time

to rise above

take this life or die

the weak will fall tonight

take this life high time

to rise above

to rise above

no weakness

did you ever try to face up to your worst inner fear?

face to face without prevention, no protection

desperation keeps alive

attack is the best form of defense

...but I swear, but I swear

I will find my way, I will rise

and I know in this society

the weakest go to the wall



I can't deny, it took longer than expected

to realize to ride roughshod over it all

the only way is to exist with a clenched fist

pull the strings, take control

throw the stone you just used to crawl under

ignorance is no excuse

ignorance is no excuse

take all that you can get

recklessness will reach success

stop wasting time

pride ain't no crime

refuse to confess your weakness

...but I swear I will find my way

and I know in this society

the weakest go to the wall

...but I swear, but I swear

I will find my way, I will rise

and I know in this society

the weakest go to the wall

take all that you can get

recklessness will reach success

stop wasting time

pride ain't no crime

refuse to confess your weakness
