Step by Step
Ascending Shadows: Unveiling a Vicious Plan
Lyrics
I may not be a king
I may not possess royal status
But the throne can make me tall
Yet the throne empowers me with stature
I may not own some things
I may lack material possessions
But I can stand when they fall
Still, I can endure when those possessions crumble
Everyone can see them
Others' flaws are evident to all
One day they'll see me
Someday, they will recognize my qualities
Everyone will hate them
Others may incur hatred
But they won't hate me
Yet, that animosity will not be directed at me
A shadow of a man
Describing someone as a mere silhouette
Who made his vicious plan
Who devised a malicious scheme
A crown to his pale hands
A crown held in his pale hands
Step by step I get to the top
Gradually, I ascend to the summit
Behind the other men
Surpassing other individuals
I climb above
I rise above
And when I stand they will be shocked
And when I achieve, they will be astonished
Step by step I make them fall
Step by step, I cause their downfall
I cut their ropes I loose their ties
I liberate them from constraints
My name they'll call and that is all
They will invoke my name, and that is my fulfillment
I may not be a queen but I am all they've seen
Despite not being a queen, I am their sole focus
A lie I've told and they follow bold
I admit to a falsehood, and they blindly follow
I make a turn and they come willing to burn
I change direction, and they willingly accept destruction
When someone is dying they'll feel like flying
During someone's demise, they experience ecstasy
Everyone can see them
Others' flaws are evident to all
One day they'll see me
Someday, they will recognize my qualities
Everyone will hate them
Others may incur hatred
But they won't hate me
Yet, that animosity will not be directed at me
A shadow of a man
Describing someone as a mere silhouette
Who made his vicious plan
Who devised a malicious scheme
A crown to his pale hands
A crown held in his pale hands
Step by step I get to the top
Gradually, I ascend to the summit
Behind the other men
Surpassing other individuals
I climb above
I rise above
And when I stand they will be shocked
And when I achieve, they will be astonished
Step by step I make them fall
Step by step, I cause their downfall
I cut their ropes I loose their ties
I liberate them from constraints
My name they'll call and that is all
They will invoke my name, and that is my fulfillment
Step by step I get to the top
Gradually, I ascend to the summit
Behind the other men
Surpassing other individuals
I climb above
I rise above
And when I stand they will be shocked
And when I achieve, they will be astonished
Step by step I make them fall
Step by step, I cause their downfall
I cut their ropes I loose their ties
I liberate them from constraints
My name they'll call and that is all
They will invoke my name, and that is my fulfillment
