Awakening Lyrics by Paladin (ATL)

Ascension

2019

[Verse 1]
Sailing on the open sea in search of adventure unknown
My homeland is finally at peace after unrest for so long
Battling the wind and rain, feeling the crash of the waves
A blinding white flash and a deafening crack leaves me for a watery grave
[Pre-Chorus]
Just close your eyes, let the water take you over
Carry you far away from here
You'll find yourself in a land that’s full of wonder
But don't you fear
[Chorus]
So it may seem life is just a waking dream
The people you've met, you’ll one day forget
But if you will try, those dreams may never die
The memories you have will live on and on
[Verse 2]
The sleeping beast must first awake if you desire to leave
The native song will stir its rest but first you must retrieve
Eight magic instruments guarded by eight deadly nightmares, so it's told
Ascend the steps to the giant's white shell and the path will then unfold
[Pre-Chorus]
To this task, rise, you must search the whole land over
You will find aid in the form of a guide
Heed his words wise, they will help to make you stronger
Go turn the tide
[Chorus]
So it may seem life is just a fleeting dream
The journeys you take, the choices you make
And though you may try, some dreams will surely die
But new ones will come in their wake
[Pre-Chorus]
Open your eyes to the truth you've now uncovered
This place has all just been one's fantasy
You must decide to press onward or to waver
What shall it be?
[Chorus]
So it may seem life is just a wasted dream
The feelings you held, your heart overwhelmed
But look to the sky, your dream is flying high
The memories you made now live on and on
