Lyrics

Raised in the shadows
Of empires built on stolen lives
The remains of the lost
Reflected in every shackled mind
Freed by the flames
And tempered in this peace
I know as long as I hold on
I remain untouched
Guided by this need
To confront and overcome
This world that surrounds me
This world that seeks to end me
Fearing judgment
I wonder what I alone can change
Steeling myself for the rain
I know is sue to come
Cut to my core
I try so hard to cling to my convictions
My dignity,my only shield
Chorus
One voice crying out
Against a wilderness of shame
One voice crying out
Against an ocean of silence
One voice crying out
That reaches the core of my being
One voice that speaks with
The rage of angels
I open my heart
I release the flame
With hope and love for you
Accept this light
Tears run through my hands
But I can sleep at night
