Lyrics
THE RECKONING
This is for the sorrow This is for the rage This is for the ghost that lives inside my head telling me to pray This is for the hurt This is for the pain This is for the lies and all the alibis that kept me in a cage
Enough is enough Enough is enough I'ma pull the trigger
Fire away and let it reign This is the reckoning, death to the misery Wide awake I'm face to face with the demons inside of me They won't be the death of me This is the day of my reckoning
For every waking hour and every broken dream For all the times my hands were tied The truth has set me free This is for the heart that makes me feel This is for the love that makes it real I never thought I'd make it out alive
Enough is enough Enough is enough I'ma pull the trigger
Fire away and let it reign This is the reckoning, death to the misery Wide awake I'm face to face with the demons inside of me They won't be the death of me This is the day of my reckoning
Oh, this is for the heart that makes me feel This is for the love that makes it real I never thought I'd make it out alive
So, fire away and let it reign This is the reckoning, death to the misery Wide awake I'm face to face with the demons inside of me They won't be the death of me This is the day of my reckoning
Enough is enough Enough is enough Enough is enough I'ma pull the trigger
