Don't sacrifice your ambition To loathsome naysayers Eliminate your contrition Unheard are the prayers You will become the behemoth In the face of their gloom Embrace the achievement Their doubt you will entomb When sunlight burns through glass Just enough to stir ghosts Guiding hands will reach out When you need them the most Breaking the mortal shell Released from the chains Stood between the gateways Of heaven and hell We will begin again In hallways ablaze Through the dead of night Into the blinding lights Don't become anchored by deadweight Foes will disguise as friends Your fate is yours to animate Expectations, transcend Witness the start of an empire The birth of an anthem Believe and aspire Take flight from this sanctum When sunlight burns through glass Just enough to stir ghosts Guiding hands will reach out When you need them the most Breaking the mortal shell Released from the chains Stood between the gateways Of heaven and hell We will begin again In hallways ablaze Through the dead of the night Into the blinding lights Time waits for no man Life will fade as fast as it began Time waits for no man Life will fade as fast as it began This is the beginning of the end
