Come together, fall apart
every life has a start 
after death
have you met your maker yet?
the magician and the priestess
whisper worlds we can believe in
when the ego stops deceiving
in attachment state
I can hurt, I can forgive
find the clean slate
embrace the courage to live
I can co-create with fate
and what about you? 
have you found your power too?
Dark night of the soul
through the pain we are renewed (it goes)

Concrete dreams
Bury me
in my sleep
Concrete dreams
Concrete dreams
I'm awaking, I'm awaking
I've awakened now

Wrestled with the devil himself
yeah, I made my sword sharp
and I barely made it out
want proof? I got the scars
reality faded 
when I pulled the nightmare card
visions from the shadow world
piercing through my heart
transformation in perspective:
I got what I need
I'm not running dry
I'm running to victory
My spirit's on fire
I got a purpose to serve
a testimony to survival
that deserves to be heard (c'mon)

(Hook)

I've awakened now
Can you hear them calling?

(Hook)
