A nation cheers
A nation cries
A new legacy begins
as an old legacy dies

A world at its edge
looks in a new direction
A world full of hope
awaits its own correction

natures bark has become the bite of man
and without it, humanity feels it cannot stand

With a nation falling, and a world being dragged behind
One heart cries, roars, cheers, and arises 
knowing paper is not what saves the soul I’m sure
but it is faith, hope, and courage that will win this war

A nation arises and the world turns its head, 
as all the people and all our hearts look away
as the sun arises on a new shore
We find out what all this has been for
