Lyrics
Ascension
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
This is a dawning
A calling to face down consequence
No honor in hiding behind a wall, that keeps you sane
Shed the skin of past mistakes
No remorse and no escape
The burden of your consciousness
Don’t turn back
Your time has come
Draw your breath
Define your ascension
Put your fears to death
Define your ascension
As the tension builds within you
Let conviction conquer
All those who stand before you
This is fair warning
No turning back
There is no indecision
Don’t turn away
Your time has come
It all ends today
Your time has come
Don’t turn back
Your time has come
Draw your breath
Define your ascension
This is fair warning
Your time will come
Your time will come
