This album was based off of concepts of strong and interesting female characters from wherever the inspiration held it. This track was made based off of the character in the “Attack On Titan” anime named Mikasa. She is known for her brutal tenacity and perseverance through the series.
[Verse 1]
Before me there stands an opportunity
There for the taking in this moment
This exact moment, I shall prepare myself
To face a monster, of which only I may conquer
Conjure the power, bestowed upon our souls
Conjure the power
[Chorus]
Align the stones, to form a message in the sand
I will never relinquish
It is written in the sand
[Verse 2]
Which lies below me
Staring back at a helpless man
(I've done all I can!)
It lies in the hands of those who seek a voice soaring above the rest
Built from the ground
Forming scratches upon the surface
We survive in wretched of times
We survive in wretched of times
Conjure the power
We survive in wretched of times
Conjure the power
We survive!
And we thrive in the most wretched of times
[Chorus x2]
Align the stones, to form a message in the sand
I will never relinquish
It is written in the sand
[Breakdown]
I've done all I can
I've done all I can
(Be here!)
[Chorus x3]
Align the stones, to form a message in the sand
I will never relinquish
It is written in the sand
[Outro]
I've done all I can!
