Children of the Sun
Thomas Bergersen (Feat. Merethe Soltvedt) Lyrics

Fighting and running from, turning from Who we really are
Trying to escape our true identity and purpose, but it's inevitable that we must confront ourselves.

Cannot suppress so let′s find the one We have shaped so far
We cannot deny who we are forever, so we should seek to understand and embrace our past actions and experiences.

Flying too close to the sun As if we're invincible
We are endangering ourselves by acting as though we are not bound by any limitations.

Cannot dictate, dominate the earth That we′re living on
We cannot control or dominate the planet we inhabit, we must work with it in order to thrive.

We can't defy the laws Cut the laws that we consummate Around the world We grow weaker as we exterminate
We cannot bend or break natural laws without consequences, as seen in the harm we cause by destroying ecosystems around the world.

The only thing that gives thing That brings air and life to us Wake up one day and find That what we got is serious
The natural world gives us the resources we depend on for survival, and if we don't appreciate and care for them, we will suffer the consequences.

We are the children of the sun
We, as humans, are a part of this world and its cycles, just like everything else.

The human greed and our creed Is all that we have to share
We often prioritize our personal interests and beliefs over those of others and the planet, which is all we seem to collectively share.

Knee deep in tragical Fabrical issues everywhere
We are struggling with difficult and complex problems across the world.

Cannot replace the one Chase the one that we used to be (used to be) It isn't how we were, why we′re here What we′re meant to be
We cannot erase our past or pretend to be something we're not. Rather, we should strive to understand and grow from those experiences, as they are a part of our journey and purpose.

Cannot suppress so let's find the one We have shaped so far
Once again, we cannot hide from our true selves and histories, but instead should embrace and learn from them.

Flying too close to sun As if we′re invincible
Again, we are endangering ourselves by ignoring our limitations and vulnerability.

Cannot dictate our faith On this earth that we're living on
We cannot control our destiny or the outcomes of our actions, but can work to make positive change through cooperation and understanding with nature.

The love for everyone Always on our own
We should show compassion and empathy towards all people and the planet we share, while being responsible for our own actions and choices.

The fire in our eyes The passion never dies We′re the chosen ones The children of the sun
We should keep alive the inspiration and drive to make a difference, as we are capable of positively shaping our world despite its challenges.

We are, we are We are the children of the sun
Once again emphasizing our place within the natural cycles of the world.

Yeah, we are, we are We are the children of the...
Repeating and reminding that we are a part of the world, not separate from it.
