Through the beautiful gates of symbolic conviction
That challenged the reign
Stay with me, don't be afraid to believe
In man's infinite search for the truth in his world
And his right to portray the romantic face of legend and life
Take my hand, I have walked this way before
The essence of man is at war with the spirit
Yet knocking at the door.
Don't let go in this imminent confusion
For tyranny's son will be threatened by one
Who would challenge their delusion
Look inward, at the secret world within
To bring the arrival of freedom and knowledge
The mind denies to give
Death and honor are thought to be the same
The rebellious nature of man and society
Silent running in his game
No one will confess to this irreverent heresy
As the witness is falling, someone is
Calling me closer to the dream
Sent to live and sent to testify
It is not found in life by adapting to form
But by forming within us
Sent to give, empowered to impart the imperishable word
Unto all its sincere aspirants of truth
The time will come and so the band played on
To offer a prayer for the rising aware that will
Soon touch the robe and gaze
At the stare of this Saviour machine
