Lyrics & Translation

[English]

A world engulfed in darkness

Wandering aimlessly

No glimmer of hope in sight

A dark path

(So dark)

I reach out, grasping at nothing

Never knew the abyss was so vast

Hurt, betrayed, frustrated, tormented

(Face the fears now)

The shadows are deep

Looking inside, now I can see

What I feel

Shine the path ahead with unwavering light

Through the power of faith

Let's push forward

(Believe)

Gonna rise up, rise up, rise up

Going higher

I’ll never give up, give up, give up, give up

Wake up

Battles await at each step

We'll get through it together

Far away, far ahead, we go

Why? Is that smile on the outside true?

You’re not smiling underneath, Who you?

Streets filled with lies and avarice

Concealing our sorrows inside

I cry out, my voice fading into silence

Never knew the walls were so tall

Let's struggle, break free, jump over, tear it down

(Gotta fight now)

Endlessly

Looking inside, now I can see

What I feel

Crimson fire, burning desperation

With this unwavering heart

Let's fly away

(Believe)

Gonna rise up, rise up, rise up

Going higher

I’ll never give up, give up, give up, give up

Wake up

Battles await at each step

We'll get through it together

Far away, far ahead, we go

A closed door

A heart yearning for connection

That’s the key

Only you can believe in yourself

Let's unlock the future

Climb towards tomorrow, yeah

Gonna rise up, rise up, rise up

Going higher

I’ll never give up, give up, give up, give up

Wake up

I won't stop till I reach the top

We'll get through it together

Far away, far ahead, we go
