Awake

Depriest

*Verse 1:*

We're running out of time, the clock is ticking fast

Humanity's purpose, lost in the shadows of the past

We were given a task, to propagate life's flame

But we're blinded by hate, and consumed by war's dark game

*Chorus:*

We're running out of time, the asleep will soon awake

Seeing we've failed, and will reset like of old

We must rise above, and take our rightful place

Before the curtain falls, on humanity's fleeting pace

*Verse 2:*

This earth is a cradle, designed in space and time

A nursery for life, where we're meant to climb

We're stewards of the land, and guardians of the sea

But we're destroying our home, and all its symphony

*Chorus:*

We're running out of time, the asleep will soon awake

Seeing we've failed, and will reset like of old

We must rise above, and take our rightful place

Before the curtain falls, on humanity's fleeting pace

*Bridge:*

Extinction's not our purpose, but a consequence of our deeds

We're meant to nurture life, and plant the seeds

Of a cosmic garden, where stars and planets thrive

But we're busy sowing discord, and reaping a world that's dry

*Verse 3:*

Populate the universe, that's the purpose we've been given

To ensure life's continuity, and watch it flourish and live on

Every living thing, has been entrusted to our care

Let's rise to the challenge, and show we truly care

*Chorus:*

We're running out of time, the asleep will soon awake

Seeing we've failed, and will reset like of old

We must rise above, and take our rightful place

Before the curtain falls, on humanity's fleeting pace

*Outro:*

The universe is watching, as we make our stand

Will we choose love or hate, will we take a noble hand?

The choice is ours, the future's in our sight

Let's make it count, and shine with all our might.
