Set It Off

Rope is burning, the world resets the stage
All our heroes are gone without a trace
My time has come
All it takes is a spark to light the fuse
Strike it up, set it off, nothing to lose
Yeah, I’m the one
Don’t you know that I’m the one that you’ve been waiting for
Take you higher, the messiah you’ve been praying for
Hey, oh oh, unleash me, let me go
Set it off, set it off, w-watch it blow
My time has come, millennium
The revolution has begun
Oh, oh, set it off, set it off, w-watch it blow
This time, rewriting history
One life, one fire, remember me
Oh, oh, set it off, set it off, w-watch it blow
Unleash me, let me go
Set it off, set it off, w-watch it blow
Start the clock, it’s humanity rewired
Everything’s gonna change with trigger fires
Under the gun
Through the ages, our voices calling out
Telling me live my life and make it count
Yeah, I’m the one
Don’t you know that I’m the one that you’ve been waiting for
Take you higher, the messiah you’ve been praying for
Hey, oh oh, unleash me, let me go
Set it off, set it off, w-watch it blow
My time has come, millennium
The revolution has begun
Oh, oh, set it off, set it off, w-watch it blow
This time, rewriting history
One life, one fire, remember me
Oh, oh, set it off, set it off, w-watch it blow
Unleash me, let me go
Set it off, set it off, w-watch it blow
Unleash me, let me go
Set it off, set it off, w-watch it blow
Though kings will rise and fall
I will keep standing tall
My words won’t fade away
It’s a brand new day, a brand new day
My time has come, millennium
The revolution has begun
Oh, oh, set it off, set it off, w-watch it blow
This time, rewriting history
One life, one fire, remember me
Oh, oh, set it off, set it off, w-watch it blow
My time has come, millennium (the time has come, millennium)
The revolution has begun (the future has begun)
Oh, oh, set it off, set it off, w-watch it blow
This time, rewriting history (rewriting history)
One life, one fire, remember me (you will remember me)
Oh, oh, set it off, set it off, w-watch it blow
Unleash me, let me go
Set it off, set it off, w-watch it blow
Unleash me, let me go
Set it off, set it off, w-watch it blow
