Friends listen closely, I won't say this twice
Hope's running out and we haven't much time
Please understand that the life we once planned on is over (over)
Now is the time you must fight for your lives
The battle is on, you're already inside
Don't turn back now, there's nowhere to hide
Nowhere to build a new world
Nowhere to start anew
Here, now is all that we've got
Ready or not, there's a war to be fought
Only one way through
This time, the ways of the past we'll get over
We'll climb, enlighten a new state of mind
And now, I'll stand with you shoulder to shoulder
Out of the ashes, a new flame ignite
Rise up from shadows and into the light
We'll stand undivided, our futures aligned
A new brotherhood this time
This warning is dire, my words you must hear
A kingdom in shambles, our downfall is near
Yet I still believe that the peace we'll achieve's growing closer (closer)
But first, blood must spill like the wine at a feast
The calm only comes once the carnage has ceased
Fight or die, there'll be no release
No way to avoid the warfare
No way to escape this strife
Hear now, listen to me
This time retreat spells our final defeat
We must win our lives
This time, the ways of the past we'll get over
We'll climb, enlighten a new state of mind
And now, I'll stand with you shoulder to shoulder
Out of the ashes, a new flame ignite
Rise up from shadows and into the light
We'll stand undivided, our futures aligned
A new brotherhood, it's time
The world sees what we're made of
We change the spite to love
(It's time) to save our fate
And walk beside the human race
The past is gone and soon behind us
Victory through trust and kindness
Heal now, we will restore
The path we've been shown too long fighting our own
We will win this war
This time, the ways of the past we'll get over
We'll climb, enlighten a new state of mind
And now, I'll stand with you shoulder to shoulder
Out of the ashes, a new flame ignite
Rise up from shadows and into the light
We'll stand undivided, our futures aligned
A new brotherhood, this time
