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 out is over Now is the time you must fight for your lives The battle is on, you're already in sight 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 enlightened, a new state of mind And now I'll stand with you shoulder to shoulder Out of the ashes, a new flame ignites 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, a downfall is near Yet I still believe that the peace we'll achieve's growing closer The first blood must spill like a wine at a feast The good 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 Here, 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 enlightened, a new state of mind And now I'll stand with you shoulder to shoulder Out of the ashes, a new flame ignites 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 (its time) To save our fate And walk beside the human race The past is gone, but soon behind us Victory through trust and kindness Here, now we will restore The path we've been shown to while fighting our own We will win this war! This time the ways of the past we'll get over We'll climb enlightened, a new state of mind And now I'll stand with you shoulder to shoulder Out of the ashes, a new flame ignites Rise up from shadows and into the light We'll stand undivided our futures aligned A new brotherhood this time!
