[Verse 1]
You say that I'm near extinction
But I'm not even close
If you wanna talk about survival
Thats a goddamn book I wrote
Now the Golden Age is over
Though that don't make me broke
The moment you hope that I'm at my lowest point
I'm at your throat
Won't miss another sunrise
Until the day that we fall into the darkness
Creepin out of every little corner out the galaxy
And we can't even stop this
I don't wanna be the one
That's gotta knock the last nail
In my fallen brothers coffins
Pick up all the weapons and
Apparel that you find so we don't
Run out of options
Not a question of Destiny
I'm just on a quest to free humanity
We got extraterrestrial entities
Infesting the planet and it gets to me
Lock and load, rest in peace
Execute effectively
Executive decisions left to me
Not one of these enemies questions me
Don't let them do the talkin', when you can knock em' back
There ain't no Covenant comin' in to watch their backs
All they do is fall apart, they're not so hard to crack
Now show the Fallen that they're f**in' with the wrong pack
[Chorus]
I'll tell you when it's over
Just close your eyes
I'm always watching over
Your earth and skies
For every fallen soldier
One more will rise
You'll be reborn a legend
The day you die
[Verse 2]
I have walked upon the finest line
Dividing God and man
Ever since the collapse
All that was left of us could hardly stand
And now all across the planet
There is really nothing left
As the Traveler watches over us
I wonder how long he can
Now we walk upon the sand
As galactic guardians
And until the day I drop
I'll represent this monogram
Fightin' every onslaught
Of monsters off my land
Should they fail to wipe us out
I'm afraid that the Darkness can
Listen carefully to my words
For all I know, they'll be my last
Protect this city with your life, 'cuz
This one is all we have
Adorn heroic robes
Assemble your chosen cla**
Remember all that the Fallen see
Is a target on your back
Don't let the Vex get to you next
Forget about their heads
And target the chest
Those godamn machines
Don't even stand a chance
You can't time travel
When your already dead
Better watch ya back around all Cabal
They make a Roman army
Look awful small
Let David talk Goliath
That the biggest have the hardest fall
Now you're not the underdog
[Chorus]
I'll tell you when it's over
Just close your eyes
I'm always watching over
Your earth and skies
For every fallen soldier
One more will rise
You'll be reborn a legend
The day you die
[Verse 3]
Funny that we used call this
Whole entire solar system home
Took us long enough to figure out
That we were not alone
But im an expert in my focus
Leavin your whole species hopeless
Human, Exo and Awoken
Stand as one a band unbroken
In a barren land ripped open
By the beasts and parasites
Where the Warlocks and the Titans
Are found fightin' side by side
As the Hunter lays down covering
Fire against the entire Hive
Welcome to a world where myths and legends
Are brought to life
[Chorus]
I'll tell you when it's over
Just close your eyes
I'm always watching over
Your earth and skies
For every fallen soldier
One more will rise
You'll be reborn a legend
The day you die
