The phoenix, no longer a myth 

So strike a match and watch it burn 

Our destination's rigor mortis 

Cause nobody listens and nobody learns 

And your world rejects my kind 

And those words have lost their touch 

And this place has lost its mind

So now I wanna burn it up 

Humility, is based on trust 

But ignorance and arrogance rule the grounds

So ashes to ashes and dust to dust 

And now I wanna burn this whole-place-down

Leashed, cuffed, locked and hooked 

Blow it down, tear it down, burn it down 

Blackmail- come take it to a whole new level 

Motherfucker, I can't wait 'till I can watch you drown

And you place our trust in you 

Reassure us that we're not to blame 

But the tables turn and we're the first to burn 

Now I could never look at you the same 

[chorus]

So take your word and shove it 

Come take your deal and shove it 

Just take the lie and shove it 

I know what you really are 

The school in which we learn 

is the fire in which we'll burn 

The school in which we learn 

Is the fire in which we-will-burn
