Lyrics
[Intro]
[Verse]
Out of the night that covers me,
Black as the pit from pole to pole,
I thank whatever gods may be
For my unconquerable soul.
[Verse]
In the fell clutch of circumstance
I have not winced nor cried aloud.
Under the bludgeonings of chance
My head is bloody, but unbowed.
[Chorus]
I am the master of my fate,
I am the captain of my soul.
I am the master of my fate,
I am the captain of my soul.
[Verse]
Beyond this place of wrath and tears
Looms but the Horror of the shade,
And yet the menace of the years
Finds and shall find me unafraid.
[Verse]
It matters not how strait the gate,
How charged with punishments the scroll,
I am the master of my fate,
I am the captain of my soul.
[Bridge]
I am the master of my fate,
I am the captain of my soul.
I am the master of my fate,
I am the captain of my soul.
[Verse]
It matters not how strait the gate,
How charged with punishments the scroll,
I am the master of my fate,
I am the captain of my soul.
[Chorus]
I am the master of my fate,
I am the captain of my soul.
I am the master of my fate,
I am the captain of my soul.
[Epic Verse]
Under the bludgeonings of chance
My head is bloody, but unbowed.
I thank whatever gods may be
For my unconquerable soul.
[Chorus]
I am the master of my fate,
I am the captain of my soul.
I am the master of my fate,
I am the captain of my soul.
[Bridge]
[Post-Bridge]
I am the master of my fate,
I am the captain of my soul.
I am the master of my fate,
I am the captain of my soul.
I am the master of my fate,
I am the captain of my soul.
I am the master of my fate,
I am the captain of my soul.
