The Reckoning (don't Tread On Me) Lyrics - The Glorious Burden - Iced Earth

Destiny's called us 

It's the reckoning 

This time it's for blood 

Don't tread on me 

Revenge is not justice 

It's the reckoning 

This time it's for blood 

Don't tread on me 

You went too far this time 

For this heinous crime 

You will know defeat 

Begging on your knees 

One by one you'll fall 

Your back against the wall 

Nowhere to turn 

You're sure to burn 

Destiny's called us 

It's the reckoning 

This time it's for blood 

Don't tread on me 

The hours close at hand 

We'll make our final stand 

Justice shall be done 

Nowhere to run 

True evil broods in you 

You're just a brainwashed fool 

The coward close that hides 

Spewing forth his lies 

Revenge is not justice 

It's the reckoning 

This time it's for blood 

Don't tread on me 

Born of destruction, bred in agony 

Is this my salvation? 

From these ashes, I am your devastation 

If it was up to me 

Eye for an eye I'd seek 

But the high road we will take 

Lady Justice is at stake 

The Judgment has been made 

In blood it shall be paid 

Death knows what to do 

The horseman comes for you. 

Destiny's called us 

It's the reckoning 

This time it's for blood 

Don't tread on me 

Revenge is not justice 

It's the reckoning 

This time it's for blood 

Don't tread on me
