In the beginning of time we were meant to expire Rooted and set for a time in the blink of an eye Precious is life in the sands of time Scars that we bare are the signs that we wear We witness the darkness The plagues of the earth set a time for rebirth to find, The Heavenly Gates (The Heavenly Gates) I can't wait to rest my head Next to the graves of those Who dreamt before I did With those who dreamed of a paradise A home beyond the sacrifice I'm not scared to dream My time is dwindling Life beyond the grave Indigenous plains that show the outcast the chains the cost of the vision The suffering saint that will claim a throne established a price of true freedom Visions we seek Answered by the divine encounters Embrace the meek the carriers of the design We are here for a time, sojourner Dreams make our souls come alive
