Foundation

I tried to pull the sword from the stone
But it broke apart
Like brittle bone
And standing here, staring at the sea
I see the waves that carry me
This is the time – the rising tide!
This is the place – the rising tide!

You want a grand finale
But there’s no end in sight
These cities you turned into kingdoms
Are just rotten with blight
This is the time – the rising tide!
This is the place – the rising tide!

Hamstrung by lies
Heroes by disguise
It’s time to realize we are all we need
I don’t sense violence
This is not disorder
We are the waves that wash the good to shore
This is the time – the rising tide!
This is the place – the rising tide!
We can all find a place
It lifts us all
Brothers stand tall
Hold on or fall
