Set It Off Lyrics by Skillet

Unleashed Beyond (Special Edition)

2017

[Verse 1]
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

[Pre-Chorus]
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, wa- watch it blow

[Chorus]
My time has come, millennium
The revolution has begun
Set it off, set it off, watch it blow
This time, rewriting history
One life, one fire, remember me
Set it off, set it off, wa- watch it blow

Unleash me, let me go
Set it off, set it off, wa- watch it blow

[Verse 2]
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

[Pre-Chorus]
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, wa- watch it blow

[Chorus]
My time has come, millennium
The revolution has begun
Set it off, set it off, watch it blow
This time, rewriting history
One life, one fire, remember me
Set it off, set it off, wa- watch it blow

Unleash me, let me go
Set it off, set it off, wa- watch it blow
Unleash me, let me go
Set it off, set it off, wa- watch it blow

[Bridge]
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

[Chorus]
My time has come, millennium
The revolution has begun
Set it off, set it off, wa- watch it blow
This time, rewriting history
One life, one fire, remember me
Set it off, set it off, wa- watch it blow
My time has come, millennium
The revolution has begun (the future has begun)
Oh, oh, set it off, set it off, wa-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, wa- watch it blow

[Outro]
Unleash me, let me go
Set it off, set it off, wa- watch it blow
Unleash me, let me go
Set it off, set it off, wa- watch it blow
