Mountains
Rising Above: Confronting Lies and Liberation in 'Mountains'
Lyrics
You're wasting away
You are deteriorating or declining.
Nod my head to things you say
I acknowledge or agree with what you're saying.
Pretending like it's okay
Acting as if everything is fine or acceptable.
You thought I'd turn out like your blind opinions
You expected me to conform to your narrow-minded views.
If you hustled as hard as you hate
If you worked as hard positively as you criticize, you could achieve success.
Then you might have this one
You would succeed if you put in the effort.
Fear me
A warning to inspire fear or respect.
This time is mine
This moment belongs to me; I'm taking control.
Nothing
There is nothing that can hinder my progress.
Can stop me now
I am unstoppable now.
You're wasting away
You are deteriorating or declining.
Nod my head to things you say
I acknowledge or agree with what you're saying.
Pretending like it's okay
Acting as if everything is fine or acceptable.
You're suffocating
You are overwhelming or suppressing me.
But there's no saving
There is no way to rescue you from your situation.
This can't be my reality
This cannot be the reality I'm experiencing.
You're buried in the past under your victims
You are stuck in the past, burdened by your actions.
Until now you'd get away with your crimes
Until now, you escaped consequences for your wrongdoings.
With your head high
You carried yourself proudly despite your misdeeds.
But not this time
But this time, you won't escape accountability.
All that you preach of is hope that is lost
Your preaching about hope is futile; it's lost.
When I'm done you'll realize what it cost
Once I'm finished, you'll understand the cost of your actions.
You're suffocating but I won't save you
You're overwhelming, but I won't come to your rescue.
These are the consequences for what you do
These are the repercussions for what you've done.
You're wasting away
You are deteriorating or declining.
Nod my head to things you say
I acknowledge or agree with what you're saying.
Pretending like it's okay
Acting as if everything is fine or acceptable.
You're suffocating
You are overwhelming or suppressing me.
But there's no saving
There is no way to rescue you from your situation.
This can't be my reality
This cannot be the reality I'm experiencing.
