Awakenings
Shur-I-Kan Lyrics

Once upon a time the truth and lies
Falling away, behind the bars
And became the way of life
Mother earth dies

We can find the answer
We can fight this fever
Time has come to find ’em
See your blood’s fire
Fighting ’til the morning

Sun will shine for glory
We will enter this time
Eternal life

Rhyme, of light, tonight, something happens
Rhyme, of light, tonight, the sheep awaken

Finding me finding you, I will pray for our souls,
I have to pay for this, I will talk prejudiced

I deny everyone,
I don’t care for anyone
Clear my body my mind
Something bringing me down

Fuck this life illusion
Time’s here for the ember
Burn in clearing pyre
Find your master
Get out from this darkness
see your destinaiton
We must break the silence
Decapitation

Rhyme, of light, tonight, something happens
Rhyme, of light, tonight, the sheep awaken

Finding me finding you, I will pray for our souls,
I have to pay for this, I will talk prejudiced

I deny everyone,
I don’t care for anyone
Clear my body my mind
Something bringing me down

Die, lies, fight, night
Light, bright, signs, eyes
See the true life!
