[Verse 1]
First man breathin’, born from dust and flame,
They wrote me off as myth—but they remember my name.
No sword, no godhood, no throne, no fleet,
But I stood in the ring, and I died on my feet.
I ain't some puppet molded to obey,
I flipped off Heaven when it threw me away.
Gave birth to a race with a spark so loud,
You look down on us, but we built your crowd.
Don’t need divinity, I got soul and spine,
Matched your king of gods like it’s fuckin’ fine.
He swung lightning—I copied each flash,
Blood pourin’ out while I whooped his ass.

[Hook]
I don’t kneel, I don’t beg, I don’t crawl or retreat,
I don’t fold to a god—I just die on my feet.
Every punch I threw was for all mankind,
I was blind by the end, but I never lost mind.
Yeah, call it defeat if that helps you sleep,
But that thunder god wept—while I died on my feet.
---
[Verse 2]
I ain’t their pet, I ain’t your toy,
I’m every rebel heartbeat in every girl and boy.
I’m the rage of a species told to bow,
And the silence of a man who said “Nah, not now.”
That Volund arm? Held it like fate,
Felt Eve in my blood when I stared down hate.
You gods play judge like your hands ain’t stained,
But we felt your wrath, and still remained.
You call yourselves eternal—so where’s your heart?
All that power, and you still fall apart.
I felt my ribs crack, each breath a scream,
But I smiled through pain like a goddamn dream.

[Hook – Repeat with intensity]
I don’t kneel, I don’t beg, I don’t crawl or retreat,
I don’t fold to a god—I just die on my feet.
Every strike I gave was for love, not pride,
For every soul that lives, I bled and died.
Call it loss? I call that peace—
‘Cause the king of gods shook...
When I died on my feet.
---
[Outro – Spoken, cold tone]
You made man in your image, then feared what you saw.
I just gave you a mirror...
And broke your law.
