Hear me now
Bearing down upon a path we choose
Chosen from the start living different rules
Existence something to cherish true
Will not succumb to doubts that I hold onto
Release the fear of my pain
In so much pain
Give me the will to fight
Every obstacle that I have inside
Release the fear and

Hear me now
Words I vow
No fucking regrets

Fuck these chains
No god damn slave
I will be different

I'll stand here defiantly
My middle finger raised
Fuck your prejudice

All my life
Always I've felt alone
Conditioned to believe that I'm always wrong
Only truth will help to set me free
My every weakness I must turn into strength
Every rage, every tear
Hate in so much hate
Never that pain will bind me
Ask of myself if I've the will to unwind
Every rage and tear

Hear me now
Words I vow
No fucking regrets

Fuck these chains
No god damn slave
I will be different

I'll stand here defiantly
My middle finger raised
Fuck your prejudice

Carved upon my stone
I will go on
Patience, belief
Love will ascend

Just listen to it
Voice so true inside calling
To pick you up and march you on
Keep from falling
Let go your sorrow
Sun will shine, this I promise
Rising tommorow
Rising

Hear me now
I'm taking back the control
Of my
Life from societies hold
I vow
No more will I be a slave
Rise to
Challenge the whole human race

My spirit you cannot break
Through The Ashes Of Empires

I love how Machine Head returns to their more thrashy, speed metal feel in this song.

The very beginning with the heavy drums is the best part, and then some lyrics... then WHAM! NO FUCKING REGRETS. Perfection right here.

You people are retarded. Fuck the lyrics. The music is brilliant. The Swedish-Thrash interlude hit me with surprise the first time I heard it. I still get a rush whenever I hear it.

I agree with the deadwired, the lyrics are pretty generic, but the music is what makes the song. The interlude is the best part

Great song, I think these guys are similar to Slipknot without the gay costumes. Great band.
