Ego

I used to think humility was everything
The only way through to all sounds

I fought against the ego
I thought fear brought me closer to the truth
I fought against the ego
I knew it brought me closer to losing

From first step to last
I'm rising from the ashes
From first step to last
I'm tender to you

I used to think that I was bound to reverence
The only way through to my help

I fell into the ego
I thought it brought me closer to my youth
I fell into the ego
I knew it brought me closer to hybris

From first step to last
I'm rising from the ashes
From first step to last
I'm tender to you
