Exodus - Climb Before the Fall lyrics
[Exodus - Climb Before the Fall lyrics]
Down by the railroad tracks
His father worked so hard to provide
That he died of a cardiac
He made himself a promise to
Leave the poverty behind
Now climbing up the corporate ladder
Is all that matters in his grand design
You can forget about friends in
Your climb before your fall
The climb before the fall
Alone at the top you feel
The pressure pulling you
And you try in your mind
To repent your sins in your
Climb before your fall
The climb before the fall
Change your ways or you will
Pay in your dying days
In the end, in the end, in the end
Sunrise now and he has to get to work
He's gotta tell someone what to do
Lives his life thinkin' how to get ahead
Kickin' of his corporate shoes
Throws his credit cards in everyone's face
Name droppin' 'cause he thinks it's cool
Doesn't realize he doesn't know how to act
He's just lookin' like a complete fool
He left everyone he loved alone
Out in the cold
His mother was standing in the welfare line
While he was up to his neck in gold
Now he's become a millionaire
And he's sitting right at the top
But he found that the higher up the mountain
Means the longer that you're gonna drop
