[Verse 1]
Let's take a moment and break the ice
So my intentions are known
See I have pity in watching you suffer
I know the feeling of being damned alone
I've got a storybook of my own

[Chorus]
Don't you see I am your pride, agent of wealth, bearer of needs
(And you know it's right)
I am your war, arming the strong, aiding the weak
Know me by name, shepherd of fire

[Verse 2]
Well I can promise you paradise
No need to serve on your knees
And when your lost in the darkest of hours
Take a moment and tell me who you see
Won't tell you who not to be

[Chorus]
Now you know I am your pride, agent of wealth
Bearer of needs
(And you know it's right)
I am your war, arming the strong, aiding the weak
Know me by name, shepherd of fire
[Guitar Solo]

[Bridge 1]
Disciple of the cross and champion in suffering
Immerse yourself into the kingdom of redemption
Harden your mind to the chains of the divine
Make way, the shepherd of fire

[Bridge 2]
Through the ages of time
I've been known for my hate
But I'm a dealer of simple choices
For me its never too late

[Chorus]
I am your pride, agent of wealth, bearer of needs
(And you know it's right)
'Cause I am your war, arming the strong, aiding the weak
I am your wrath, I am your guilt, I am your lust!
(And you know it's right)
I am your law, I am your stall, I am your thrust
Know me by name, shepherd of fire
