For years I have waited and watched from the sides
While others were given their dues
Overlooked and forgotten
My words cast aside
I did what I needed to do
As a child I learned that the world can be cruel
A game to which there are no rules
Thieves are forgiven and justice is blind
But this time the justice is mine
The past is a story
It tells us all who we are
It robs us of glory
And leaves us with nothing but scars
All I ever wanted
Was a life that was rightfully mine
To never play second in line
Time to thrive not just survive
All I ever needed
Was a moment to even the odds
With power to rebel the gods
The stars aligned to my design
It's all I ever wanted
All of my life I have tried to be heard
But men only hear what they fear
Fate wasn't given, it's something I took
Now they have fear of the hook
There was always a standard to which I was held
A fairness to which I was sworn
But life took a turn and the hard way I learned
Every rose has its thorn
Casted to the outside
Watching as others delight
A thirst on the inside
For darkness to conquer the light
All I ever wanted
Was my time living life in the sun
When those fools all regret what they've done to me
They'll see that I'm not through
All I ever needed
Was a moment to conquer my fate
To never be second to great
A world that's prime and mine to take
It's all I ever wanted
Days turn to hours and hours to years
Hope becomes twisted and rooted in fear
Balance and order are cast to the side
Vengeance for justice that I've been denied
All I ever wanted
Was a chance to even the score
Why settle for less when there's more?
To conquer all that came before
All I ever needed
Was a slip in the balance of time
To regain what's rightfully mine
To change the end and start again
It's all I ever wanted
