I am he who survived the heat of your rage
scorching me to ashes, I rose from the flames
unharmed by your piercing eyes
unmoved by your venomous lies

I am he who found the power that I never lost
twisting with confusion, my demons did fall
untainted by their ruinous ways
unaltered by my troublesome days

I am he who walks through the valley of life and death
blinding my sight I see through all the unreal
uncompromised by the veils of deceit
unchallenged by the winds of defeat

I am he who sees within the soul of your heart
that which you seek to hide from the world
fooled by your shadow, you lie
ruled by your shadow, you die

I am he who the sky does speak to at night
sending wise words from that infinite space
enriched by your wisdom
enthroned by your kingdom

I am he who did fail by the standards you set
losing your favour with each mistake that I made
riddled by my inferior stance
belittled by your superior glance

I am he who survived the fire of your hate
scorching my bones, I did rise from the flames
protected by shadows, below and above
accepted by angels, in life and in love
