Self-Made Man

From the ashes of defeat I rise With fire in my heart and light in my eyes Guided by the square with the compass in hand I carve my path through this ancient land I'm a Self-Made Man forged in flame In the Lodge of Life I earned my name No chains can bind no lies can sway I'll forge my own fate come what may I'm a Self-Made Man forged in flame In the Lodge of Life I earned my name No chains can bind no lies can sway I'll forge my own fate come what may In the darkness where secrets are sworn By the Master's Word I was reborn No one to guide but the symbols and signs I built my life through the craft's designs I'm a Self-Made Man forged in flame In the Lodge of Life I earned my name No chains can bind no lies can sway I'll forge my own fate come what may Come what may Come what may Through the pillars of strength I stand tall With the Eye above watching us all In the Temple of Light my soul's refined A brotherhood's bond by the Grand Architect's design I'm a Self-Made Man forged in flame In the Lodge of Life I earned my name No chains can bind no lies can sway I'll forge my own fate come what may So hear my roar see my fire Under the All-Seeing Eye I never tire I'm a Self-Made Man standing tall In this sacred craft I'll take it all I'll take it all I'll take it all I'll take it all Come what may
