lyrics

Book One – Present
Chapter 1: Mountain of Meru

Rise
Climb
Ascend
Higher than yourself

Hey you
These are the reasons they hate you
Looking for ways they can break you
Never me able to change you
So they try to blame you
These are the reasons they hate you
These are the reasons they hate you
Never be able to break you
These are the reasons they hate you now

Hey you
These are the reasons they hate you
Climbing the mountain of fate you
Ascend the living to break through
These are the reasons they hate you
Standing with nothing to say you
Ascend the living to break through
These are the reasons they hate you

I was the one who crossed through the river
And I was the one who came to begin again
All of my time seeking the relevance
With aching heart, mind of an elephant
Spending my time waiting
As these seconds of my life fade away
It was complicating, breathing extinction
I was the one who crossed through the river
And I was the one surpassing the sentient
I was the one embracing the elegance
Traverse space and time to rise
Climb
Ascend
Higher than I am no one

Break me open
Leave me hollow
Am I broken with tomorrow
Cut me open
Spill my sorrow
I'll be broken
No tomorrow
