Born from the Blackness

I never fear for the darkness,
I'm believing in an energy to harness
and we must see the light,
But only in the shadows can we see the stars

I never fear for the darkness,
I believe that it's a gift that we're born with and we must the light
But only in shadows can we see the stars, we are born from the blackness

When I came into this maddening world
in the blackness of my mothers womb, I found home
And I've been riding for the bright horizon
But if anything the darkness is what I'm designed from
And I've been through the images of journeyman tales
And the righteousness of fighting for it tooth and nail
dividing lines between the knight who wants his holy grail
and the lightning storms that form a tempest till my soul derails

They gave me a prayer, but I wouldn't hold it
The writings in the cavern but I couldn't know it
Islands in the storm that we hadn't found yet
There's a light deep in the forest

And days never burn without night's calling
The light comes from the sky to the ocean
Hiding in the depths till we open, a cave of the unspoken

I never fear for the darkness,
I'm believing in an energy to harness
and we must see the light,
But only in the shadows can we see the stars

I never fear for the darkness,
I believe that it's a gift that we're born with
and we must the light
But only in shadows can we see the stars, we are born from the blackness

Light up, give my life for highest bom sounds
and Ill keep on blazin right until they burn me down
Gonna dig the vein, the gold that gleams beneath the ground
And I’ll find a temple where these demons have been turned a round
Gonna bet on many days, when I don't see the road and the meaningless is eating into my hope
I'll be looking for the wound that's carved into my bones It's my bow and my arrow

Light it up, light it up
