In this empty void I found a way to the light
Can't find my way in this lingering world
Searching for the answer the one I can trust in
I’m just wandering 'round
Yeah still stuck in the shadow ey
But I never follow that
This pain at last soon will pass
Turn into my own unbeatable strength
This guy or that guy dead or alive
By fighting alone we can't survive
I don’t want to lie to myself
Keep on the fight, get right
I'll never lose and cry
Keep run up day and night
Time to rewrite
No matter what anyone say
I find my way
Yeah, never go away
Never go away
Now, Nobody can stop me no way
I will make sure not to forget those precious things
Yeah I'll take a stand get back all that I've lost
Rise suddenly in this world
(I don't look back yeah)
This repetition will repeat 'til the end
And the regrets are still lingering in my head
Time to get it all back now turn over
Rise suddenly in this world
(I don't look back yeah)
Yeah now I know what I gotta do aye
This world lose the balance but I save you aye
So try to keep my faith
Try to bring to my sense
Life is short what do I use my life for
For change the world
Right now yeah fight my war
Keep on the fight, get right
I'll never lose and cry
Keep run up day and night
Time to rewrite
No matter what anyone say
I find my way
Yeah never go away
Never go away
Now, Nobody can stop me no way
I will make it so I don’t lose sight of myself
I will unleash it all unleash everything
Rise suddenly in this world
(I don’t look back yeah)
No matter how many times I will stand tall
Without being afraid I'll risk it all
Averting your eyes won’t change your true heart
Rise suddenly in this world
(I don't look back yeah)
I gotta go
Keep defend everything myself
I gotta go
Keep defend everything myself
Feel so good ya
Without being misled the vision's faint it's searching for the light
In the end to protect who you love all depends on you inside
My shield’s front and back (dilemma)
All guards yeah become (vanguard)
Stay hungry. Stay foolish
Whatever happens, just run (esskeetit)
(Never go away)
Now, Nobody can stop me no way
I will make sure to not forget these precious things
Yeah I'll take a stand get back all that I've lost
Rise suddenly in this world
(I don't look back yeah)
This repetition will repeat 'til the end
And the regrets are still lingering in my head
Time to get it all back now turn over
Rise suddenly in this world
(I don't look back yeah)
