Lyrics

[Instrumental Intro] [Verse 1] With the sun in place, there's a test of faith Streams of thought awaken New realities, singularities Breaking all illusions [Interlude: Kahlil Gibran] "Your living is determined not So much by what life brings to you As by the attitude you bring to life Not so much by what happens to you as by The way your mind looks at what happens Out of suffering have Emerged the strongest souls The most massive characters Are seared with scars." [Verse 2] Sudden burst of heat, burning source of life Masterful destruction Power's not an act, it's understanding truth Changing my direction [Verse 3] Live in the moment, breathe in a new beginning Wisdom revealed as I unlearn to learn Life's biggest battles often are fought alone My spirit brings me home [Verse 4] Emerald thoughts flow through my consciousness Drawn to curses left behind Test of will the threshold to one's faith Starts a fire in the mind [Verse 5] Searching out, reaching in To arrive where I began Sights remembered in the light [Instrumental Break] [Guitar Solo] [Instrumental Break] [Guitar Solo] [Instrumental Break] [Verse 5] Searching out, reaching in To arrive where I began Sounds remembered come alive [Verse 6] Embrace the days Don't turn away Life's true intent needs patience Karma starts the signal [Instrumental Outro]
