Leviathan Rising - Redemption

Leviathan rises

From the ocean of our fear

Falling to our knees we cower

Bequeathing to this edifice

A monopoly of force

This parasitic beast is drunk with power

We’ve let our fears destroy

Our dignity and freedom

And turned our backs on all

The principles we once held dear

Behemoth rises

From the soils of jealousy

Equality enforced on pain of death

Mistaking mankind’s progress

For a dialectic truth

And smothering the spirit that’s behind it

From each according to ability we’ll give away

To each according to his need

Until the years grind into dust

Cast off the chains we’ve made

And refuse to dig our graves

Stand up, the lives we save

Will be our own

Reclaiming liberty

We’ll starve the beast

We’ve let our fears destroy

Our dignity and freedom

And placed ourselves beneath the heel

Of our own entitlement

Cast off the chains we’ve made

And refuse to dig our graves

Stand up, the lives we save

Will be our own
