Mortal, spawn on the altar
Caught in the heart of the blaze The primal fear of disappearing Becoming a ghost in the void Death Give a price, put a name None of it real in this matter Wandering, distracting, Wishing the life of another self We were born for one thing Tame the greatest fear of all We were born for one thing Born to face the greatest fear of all We're all drawn into ourselves In a collective coma Remember gazing up for answers But now we're staring down All is blur in the maze we put an end to all We were born for one thing Tame the greatest fear of all We were born for one thing Born to face the greatest fear of all We're no one United When we're gone 02. Amazonia
Incite a riot, put yourself in a trance
You rotate the frame in a world you rely on A scar, a line has been drawn in the sand Behold the life, the boundaries fools will crush The greatest miracle Is burning to the ground Onto the next stage of the plan Mourn the witness of the wind A hand full of thunder Will rise one last time There's fire in the sky You're in the Amazon The greatest miracle Is burning to the ground Godly Amazonia Bloody Amazonia Mighty Amazonia Killing Amazonia Burn the land Learn the end Burn Another Gold mine is unveiled The source of our sorrow Learn Embedded in these walls of green Is the curse that we follow There's fire in the sky You're in the Amazon The greatest miracle Is burning to the ground Mighty Amazonia Killing Amazonia Godly Amazonia Bloody Amazonia 03. Another World
We mock and slaughter all the purest kinds
Blinded by the noise and maze, this flash in our eyes Hope for the world but prepare for the worst I'd rather find a way on my own Another world, another place to be Otherworld, a new place for me Don't believe your lies, don't believe your tales I'm longing for the day I will find? Another world, another place to be Otherworld, a new place for me Another world, another place to be Otherworld, a new place for me 04. Hold On
I've been grinding and grinding
Oh! Ocean have mercy I've been grinding and grinding Oh! Ocean have mercy I give you my life Oh! Son of the Sun I've been rowing and rowing No sign of land so far in the flood I've been through fire and wind I'm hanging, feet in the depth Drowning all day long, in an ocean of stress Gotta find a safety raft, another wave is striking down Hold on! Fight! We are merely grabbing on to... Hold on! Fight! Unconscious ride around the core In a matter of time, you're out in the open You shall prove yourself in the bitter end But for now, brace yourself! Hold on! Fight! We are merely grabbing on to... Hold on! Fight! Unconscious ride around the core When you witness death you understand your demise And you may embrace your destiny the fate of all And maybe when we die we rise, high, find a ground And we return where we belong Elders, deep under Shelter, land! Fight! We are merely grabbing on to life Fight! One last attempt to break the code... Hold on! Fight! We are merely grabbing on to... Hold on! Fight! Unconscious ride around the core Hold on! Fight! Hold on tight! Hold on! Fight! Hold on tight! 05. New Found
Long lost illusions, left a hole
You're filling the pond, a specter of the past A pale light is keeping you awake And dragging your skull, a pointless ritual Make things right, straighten up the lies You've been telling yourself all along Look straight up it's right in front of you A vision through the reeds, a reason to go on Newfound splendor in the sky Newfound land across the sea The long days you've had, enough to figure out What it is you dig and what you're bleeding for A bright light, now making you alive Connecting the dots, a brand new ritual Newfound vision through the veil Newfound colors for the blind Newfound splendor in the sky Newfound land across the sea Newfound vision through the veil Newfound colors for the blind Newfound splendor in the sky Newfound land across the sea Newfound Newfound Newfound Newfound We're all on the same boat, we're going down We're all on the same boat, we're going high 06. Fortitude
[Instrumental]
07. The Chant
You were told to swallow crawl and hide
Victims of fear and deception Get ahold of yourself rise above The better part of you, immortal May this purple spring flow into your soul Exhausting all these black holes inside Wake up to the sound of doom! Let this chant ring in your bones and lift you up Get strong Leave the mud behind and climb up the sky Wake up to the sound of doom! 08. Sphinx
Call upon the wise one to remember the chords
The truth buried alive since the dawn of time Was it all for nothing? Great watcher of the soul Rid the world of its blindfold, make us real again! Carved in limestone That's all there is, facing the lion Become one You stand still, the voice of silence Remain one Express your will, you will be rewarded For all thoughts become reality May we lеarn from the old one Standing tall in the sand Witnеss erosion, the rise and fall of men Carved in limestone That's all there is, facing the lion Become one You stand still, the voice of silence Remain one Become one The savior has arrived The savior has a name Carved in limestone You become one Facing the lion You become one 09. Into The Storm
Go!
Say something about awakening The rebellion you felt before Wake, change your course, laws will follow Restart, reactivate the core Rise! Yeah you come out, you're awake now Put your fist in the air You were hiding, now you throw yourself into the storm Flames Gather your strength raise your eyes Fear, not the demons you're up against Now that you dove down, found the bottom, begging for air How sad, how long it takes us to rise and fight! Yeah you come out, you're awake now Put your fist in the air You were hiding, now you throw yourself into the storm Flames dancing in the open, you step into the light Now that you dove down, found the bottom, begging for air How sad, how long it takes us to rise and fight! Yeah you come out, you're awake now Put your fist in the air You were hiding, now you throw yourself into the storm Storm! Into the storm Storm! 10. The Trails
All that you see that is gold is truly gold
I spotted through the vines, a deer in the wild Signs in the trails Beyond the reason Eye-gazing the unknown, defeating the ground This passage through the flames leads me where the souls go Signs in the dreams Beyond the reason We're forced into the light How can we be so blind? Our light is torn How can we be so lame? No truth being told Signs in the trails Beyond the reason All that you see that lives truly is alive Let us stay awake reminded of the trails that matter 11. Grind
Surrender to the grind
Embrace the laws that make you cringe You will be fixed in no time If you go all the way Grind! Grind! We're wandering in chaos Forget about which reality is real Eternal quest to resolve Our struggle with gravity You're all shredded, you're all scarred Fighting the tide Your tough face on, you think you'll last long Against the grain? Go! Surrender to the grind Obey! Surrender to the grind The only way Grind! Grind! Grind! |
