Up on the cliffs you built your throne High above where the eagles roam You said who can bring me down from here But pride is a ladder with steps that disappear You laughed when the city burned Watched your brother's cries unconcerned Thought you were untouchable stone and steel But the truth cuts deeper than what you feel The stars don't bow to a mountain’s peak Your riches fade your walls grow weak You robbed the stranger closed the gate But justice waits and it's never late Your wisdom failed your heroes fled What's left when the heart turns to led You sold out trust for a hollow crown The higher you rise the faster you drown You thought you'd escape the reckoning tide But shadows run where the truth can't hide Edom you flew too high Wings of pride now can't deny Fall fall down you go The harder you climb the harder you show Tear it down now let the truth resound One voice in the storm shaking the ground Got a message for the nations loud and clear Justice is near no more hiding in fear You stood so tall on your mountain high Eagle's nest where the clouds reside But the higher you climb the farther you fall Thought you owned the sky but you lost it all Your brothers you turned into prey Watched them bleed as you looked away The gates you locked the bridges you burned Edom's pride a lesson unlearned You laughed when the walls caved in drunk on power soaked in sin But every crown cracks every kingdom bends You hid in shadows thinking you'd last But the storm rolled in skies overcast Your riches rust your strength decays Arrogance fades when the truth invades The sword you drew now turned on you The seeds you sowed they grew and grew The feast you stole now bitter bread Edom's glory a story dead Pride falling hear the echoes calling Built your throne on the edge now you're crawling Pride's falling no one there to save The mountain you climbed became your grave Tear it down now let the truth resound One voice in the storm shaking the ground Got a message for the nations loud and clear Justice is near no more hiding in fear You stood on the cliff watching us fall Hands in your pockets you did nothing at all The streets cried loud their echoes rang clear But your silence spoke louder than any fear You built your walls with pride and stone Edom’s throne but you sat there alone Allies fled when the fire drew near Strongholds crumble when the Judge appears You laughed at our ruin you cheered at our pain But the seeds you sowed they grow into chains Your towers are high but the ground is weak No fortress can hold when the heavens speaks We were scattered beaten torn apart But Zion's light burns bright in the dark The tables will turn the humble will rise The meek inherit the world no surprise You thought your might could rewrite fate But justice knocks and it won't wait Tear it down now let the truth resound One voice in the storm shaking the ground Obadiah
