Evolution (The Grand Design) Lyrics by Symphony X

Live on the Edge of Forever

2000

[Instrumental Intro]
[Verse 1]
Born from the light, journey into the moment
Delivered from thought and sky
He will be one, one with the land
Lord of wind and the sea and the sands
The one, the bringer of life
[Pre-Chorus 1]
All will bear a part of me
Let this hollow shell set you free to live as one
[Chorus]
Here we are, children of Sun and Stars
The first to know and to understand
Living by the law of the ages
Prophets and sages, forging Utopia
[Verse 2]
Great Ptah - Khnemu
Sacred priest of the Temple of Ra
And the keeper of truth
Crystalline spheres, the power of light
Grant us keys to the stars and the secrets of flight
'Five shall be as One'
[Pre-Chorus 2]
We unlock the mysteries of knowledge and technology
[Chorus]
Here we are, children of Sun and Stars
The first to know and to understand
Living by the Law of the Ages
Prophets and sages, forging Utopia
[Bridge]
'We shall live forever, and cast out those less divine
Gods we will be rulers of the sea in our Grand design'
[Guitar Solo]
[Keyboard Solo]
[Chorus]
Here we are, children of Sun and Stars
The first to know and to understand
Living by the Law of the Ages
Prophets and sages, forging Utopia
Here we are, children of Sun and Stars (here we are)
The first to know and to understand (the first to understand)
Living by the Law of the Ages
Prophets and sages, forging Utopia (prophets and sages)
[Instrumental Outro]
'...and to create entirely new beings was an even greater
Display of their power, but in attempting to merge their
Energies, some of the newly made beings were
Disfigured...and there were altered creatures with wings
Hooved legs and tails - part human, part beast
And they became divided...'
