Zola Jesus Ego

AlphabetLyrics.com

I used to think
Humility was everything,
The only way through
To ourselves
I fought against the ego,
And I thought fear brought me closer
To the truth
I fought against the ego,
I knew it brought me closer
To losing
From first step to last
I'm rising from the ashes
From first step to last
I'm tethered to you
I used to think
That I was bound to reverence
The only way through
To my health
I fed into the ego
I fought what brought me closer
To my youth
I fed into the ego
I knew it brought me closer
To hubris
From first step to last
I'm rising from the ashes
From first step to last
I'm tethered to you
From first step to last
I'm rising from the ashes
From first step to last
I'm tethered to you.
