Andrei Mincov - I Swear
This is a rough demo for my anthem based on Ayn Rand's immortal novel, Atlas Shrugged
I SWEAR
Music & Lyrics* - Andrei Mincov
(c) 2012
Who's John Galt, why the misery?
'Loot the rich' is their recipe
Don't expect victims' sanction anymore
A is A, A is never B
Equalize opportunity
For the sake of incompetents on earth
Oh, I refuse to be
Speechless slave to majority
Don't seek undeserved rewards
Oh, I will never be
Choosing safety over freedom
Light is not absence of darkness
Hell no, I don't surrender
My goal is not to sacrifice
That what I value
To useful idiots
Who'd kill for collective
I wasn't born to be enslaved
Guided by reason
I swear I'll never live for the sake of another man
Or ask another man to live for mine
Atlas shrugged, motor runs no more
Worthless stocks, Wyatt's burning oil
Rearden metal hoarded by the mob
Real virtue they'll never see
Celebrate mediocrity
Here's your trophy, thanks for showing up
Oh, I accept no guilt
For pursuit of being happy
I know what I want from life
Oh, I can finally see
How the evil fights achievement
Ayn Rand provided the answer
Hell no, I don't surrender
My goal is not to sacrifice
That what I value
To useful idiots
Who'd kill for collective
I wasn't born to be enslaved
Fight for my freedom
Don't need an adjective for 'justice'
And I say
Hold on, it's now or never
There's nothing wrong with being right
No contradictions
I checked my premises
I won't compromise
Against the evil, I'm on strike
Guided by reason
I swear I'll never live for the sake of another man
Or ask another man to live for mine
