Rival Lyrics by Ken Ashcorp

2012

I walk a path down victory road
See, it's my chance and I know just where it goes
I'm feeling ghastly but I know that I'll pull through
You're so vile, in denial, and I know just what to do

Abra, Kadabra, Alakazam
I'mma change the way you feel about who I am
Cause I'm tangled up and I'm just so stuck
Yeah you run amuck all because you can

And I'm sick and tired of the way you treat me
You fill me up with fear
You write your name upon the wall to let me know that you were here

Everyone needs a rival
Someone who can spur you on
And make you feel invincible
The thrill is irresistible
I will defeat you
Yeah, I know I'm gonna beat you
I've waited too damn long for my time to shine
I'm gonna take the world by storm
Yeah, I'm elite and you're forlorn

I feel just like a persian rug
I'm trod upon and you stand there feeling smug
And you can growl, but your bark's worse than your bite
Reduced to ash, give me your cash because I'm spoiling for a fight

I need a palate cleanser
While I walk these streets of gold
Fire beneath me feeling hot
I know you're not cause you're so cold
All I see is red
So get ready for the end
Give me your best shot, give all you got cause you know
You can't push reset and start again

Everyone needs a rival
Someone who can spur you on
And make you feel invincible
The thrill is irresistible
I will defeat you
Yeah, I know I'm gonna beat you
I've waited too damn long for my time to shine
I'm gonna take you down
I'm gonna take what's mine

Everyone needs a rival
Someone who can spur you on
And make you feel invincible
The thrill is irresistible
I will defeat you
Yeah, I know I'm gonna beat you
I've waited too damn long for my time to shine
I'm gonna take the world by storm
Yeah, I'm elite and you're forlorn
