Iced Earth - Tragedy And Triumph lyrics

Here we stand I know it's always been our home We're awakened from our prison A new day, it's finally here We walk the streets without fear Our humanity has risen Digging out those microchips That kept us dormant to resist Singing songs of our triumph To maintain our current state We must try to innovate Our minds and our future We lived through their lies Now we'll always keep a conscious mind And we hold our heads up high We will never let our spirit die The brave new world, You know it's always been a lie Pushed with their manipulation Cast away the unseen chains They shackle you a slave Take control of your existence Flushing out their poison ways Live to fight another day The time is now to start living We've taken back our dignity We are alive and we are free A revolution of our spirit We lived through their lies Now we'll always keep a conscious mind And we hold our heads up high We will never let our spirit die Time is on our side We have prevailed Humanity's ultimate struggle Hearts and minds Are joined in victory We are triumphant and eternal Time is on our side We have prevailed Humanity's ultimate struggle Hearts and minds Are joined in victory We are triumphant and eternal Here we stand I know it's always been our home We can build a brand new future A new day, it's finally here We live our lives without fear Our humanity has risen The task at hand to educate So we don't make the same mistake Never take the road to serfdom We are aware, we are awake Dystopia we did escape Never to repeat the nightmare We lived through their lies Now we'll always keep a conscious mind And we hold our heads up high We will never let our spirit die Time is on our side We have prevailed Humanity's ultimate struggle Hearts and minds Are joined in victory We are triumphant and eternal Time is on our side We have prevailed Humanity's ultimate struggle Hearts and minds Are joined in victory We are triumphant and eternal Time is on our side We have prevailed Humanity's ultimate struggle Hearts and minds Are joined in victory We are triumphant and eternal
