Storm coming in me, bad weather just makes me breathe
Watch as the sky turns grey, life ebbs and flows away
Wait, before I go, I’ll make them all eat crow
Play the hand life deals, everything my way, now kneel
I’m a tree, roots firm in dirt, I’ve had my share of hurt
Move fast ‘cause the time is short, ‘cause the time is short

Don’t ask me to lose ‘cause I’m born now to win
And I’m building this mountain from outside within
All you outsiders, you haters and liars
Your time is just counting so come meet the mountain

Storm, strength coming on strong, rain wash away life’s wrongs
Willing straight from the start, strike fear into their heart
Sometimes you wish you’d never been born but then here comes the storm
And just as the sky turns black, the voices say attack
Move fast ‘cause the time is short, ‘cause the time is short
Move fast ‘cause the time is short, ‘cause the time is short

Don’t ask me to lose ‘cause I’m born now to win
And I’m building this mountain from outside within

All you outsiders, you haters and liars
Your time is just counting so come meet the mountain

Come meet the mountain

Falling, life
Life ebbs and flows away
Don’t ask me to lose ‘cause I’m born now to win
And I’m building this mountain from outside within
All you haters and liars just come meet the mountain
DevilDriver

Catchy Metal Tune, and a Great singalong. Dez writes lyrics like I poop though. Don't dwell on that comparison, either.

The lyrics are not that bad. Anyway it's all about presentation and they do a fine job at that.

The lyrics are stereotypical Metal "LIFE WAYNES, WHAT I FEEL PAINS lyrics. Nothing interesting at all.

I agree, the lyrical content could be much better, but honestly, I don't care, cause the music is great.

I like the overall metaphor... The chorus is cool too. This band has some great guitar riffs.
