Verse 1
Out of the ashes
A lonely man stands tall 
A victor of battles 
A prietor of war

Verse 2
Driven by madness 
Enslaved by greed 
haunted by voices 
And hallowed screams 

Chorus 
What is the price
The price to free (x2)
When nobody wins 
Against the sway machine 
No nobody wins 
Against the sway machine 

Verse 3
Out of the darkness 
A new thrall is born 
A master of arms 
Another pawn on the board 

Chorus 
What is the price 
The price to be free 
When nobody wins
Against the sway machine 

Bridge 
They break him down 
Just to build him up
Make him believe 
It's all just cause 
He's ten feet tall 
He's bullet proof
Trust in me
Your sovereignty 

Chorus 
What is the price 
The price to be free (x2)
When nobody wins 
Against the sway machine 
No nobody wins 
Against the sway machine(repeat bridge and Chorus till end)

What's this song about? I can't figure it out.

Also, what's a "prietor"?

nothing like a rage against the machines so to speak, like the write, it feels like it should have a big booming bass drum and heavy crash of cymbals going on, with the humbucker of a Les Paul wailing

Would note the phrasing of the second verse is dramatically different from V1 and V3

The note re Prietor is valid, this can be disconcerting and allow the listener to disconnect, choice of words is something we all fail in occasionally as I get told so often LOL
