Challenger

Face down, this the way you taught me to abide
Down on my knees, I was just another servile bitch
I realized I was a whore begging for security
And such a coward, I'd never have asked to be set free

Explain me why should I disregard all the lies and become everything I despise
If I can't find a meaning to this fearful life, I'll become the enemy of mankind

What did you conjecture to arise from the ashes of my broken self?
An obedient drone just easy to bind?
I'm but the demon you've devised

Tremble, you bastards, I represent all that you dread
It's so futile to think you can still control me
I've nothing to lose for you have tainted everything I prized
Whatever you try, revenge is mine

Explain me why should I disregard all the lies and become everything I despise
If I can't find a meaning to this fearful life, I'll become the enemy of mankind

I shall wipe this burden out
Victorious I will stand above the mundane shame you've forcefully trained me in
I'll concede nothing and never forget all your deeds and cruelty
Retribution is on the way, turning the war you've started into pure defeat

Explain me why should I disregard all the lies and become everything I despise
If I can't find a meaning to this fearful life, I'll become the enemy of mankind
