Pride Comes Before The Fall

(album: Hate Über Alles - 2022)

Your words will never scare me
Never take me from my path
I follow my own rules, never kneel before your gods
Your fear will never haunt me, I can see through your disguise
Kill me with your hatefulness
But still, like air, I rise

I can see your blind infatuation
A product of your vanity, a symptom of your ignorance
Hatred breeds a cycle of recession
That psychosocial parody, the death of all intelligence

Now, we're standing face to face
Look me in the eye
Confrontation, no escape
Tonight, vengeance is mine (It's mine)
Crawling on your knees
Your back against the wall
Pride comes
Pride comes before the fall

Did you think, by spreading all your poison
You're giving birth to dominance, a glorious, supreme decadence?
This is real, there's no chance for avoidance
The dawning of your bitter end, spiritual deliverance

Now, we're standing face to face
Look me in the eye
Confrontation, no escape
Tonight, vengeance is mine (It's mine)
Crawling on your knees
Your back against the wall
Pride comes
Pride comes before the fall

Your words will never scare me
Never take me from my path
I follow my own rules, never kneel before your gods
Your fear will never haunt me, I can see through your disguise
Kill me with your hatefulness
But still, like air, I rise

Now, we're standing face to face
Look me in the eye
Confrontation, no escape
Tonight, vengeance is mine (It's mine)
Crawling on your knees
Your back against the wall
Pride comes
Pride comes

I will always stand against
The things you represent
My spirit is unbreakable
My wounded soul will never mend
I will be the face you'll see
When death calls
Pride comes
Pride comes before the fall
