The first redemption

A feeling in my bones time cannot withhold the scars
Or the spark to change the path we walk upon.

These tragedies these wars shape us and strengthen our insight
The light that burns inside our minds
Through trials and tribulations learning time may not make things right
Recite these words come from inside.

No one can take your dignity and pride
So hold it deep inside
No one can change mistakes we've made in life
So ease your mind.

So ease your mind
Oh ease your mind
Oh ease your mind

Surrendering release your fears
Let it go let it fall into the undertow, into the undertow
Let it go.

Looking back i see something
Kept me from falling saved my life
In time i see through different eyes
Strength returning to their faces
My people fight to stay alive
This life held close inside our minds.

No one can take your dignity and pride
So hold it deep inside
No one can change mistakes we made in life
So ease your mind.

The torrent the storm rains down its wrath and strive
Spirits hold fast raised from the ashes
Our voice echoes the story and the martyr's song
Strike us down, but we won't be broken.

We overcome tribulation
Find the eye of the storm
Stand amidst fear and chaos
We persevere!

No one can take your dignity and pride
So hold it deep inside
No one can change mistakes we made in life
So ease your mind.

Cut down from sorrow's noose
I blood let my regrets withstand the persecution
I kneel down in the light of redemption
In the knowledge that i can change my voice resounding
In the wind in the dawn of tomorrow's birth

And there we stood watching the flames die and drift up as vapor
The wounded draw slow to their feet in renewed strength
That there was a hope that never faded and never left the depths of our hearts
Mankind would rebuild its spirit our story
And we would be the legend the catalyst for a new generation
The words, remembered carved into the stones that were raised
I was once bitter a hopeless man bathed in despair and from the edge of death
I was raised to walk amongst the living
My life, a legacy to the life i leave behind and to the re-birth of my people.
I was raised to walk amongst the living
