James Hetfield - Atlas, Rise! lyrics

[Verse 1] Bitterness and burden Curses rest on thee Solitaire and sorrow All eternity Save the Earth and claim perfection Deem the ma** and blame rejection Hold the pose, fein perception Grudges break your back [Pre-Chorus] All you bear All you carry All you bear Place it right on Right on me [Chorus] Die as you suffer in vain Own all the grief and the pain Die as you hold up the skies Atlas, rise! How does it feel on your own? Bound by the world all alone Crushed under heavy skies Atlas, rise! [Verse 2] Crucify and witness Circling the sun ba*tardized in ruin What have you become? Blame the world and blame your maker Wish 'em to the undertaker Crown yourself the other savior So you carry on [Pre-Chorus] All you bear All you carry All you bear Place it right on Right on me [Chorus] Die as you suffer in vain Own all the grief and the pain Die as you hold up the skies Atlas, rise! How does it feel on your own? Bound by the world all alone Crushed under heavy skies Crushed under heavy skies Atlas, rise! [Instrumental] [Verse 3] Masquerade as maker Heavy is the crown Beaten down and broken Drama wears you down Overload, the martyr stumbles Hit the ground and Heaven crumbles All alone the fear shall humble Swallow all your pride [Pre-Chorus] All you bear All you carry All you bear Place it right on Right on me [Chorus] Die as you suffer in vain Own all the grief and the pain Die as you hold up the skies Atlas, rise! How does it feel on your own? Bound by the world all alone Crushed under heavy skies Crushed under heavy skies Atlas, rise!
