[Voice in the Swamp]
You think you're high up, far and proud
Must be better, lost in your cloud
Don't you care, don't you see, we're down here?
Sinking low in mud and tears
[Voice on the Mountain]
No, it's not pride, my heart is true
Up here to see, to guide for you
[Voice in the Swamp]
You left us here, hearts heavy with strife
Think you're better, above this life
How can you guide, when you're so far away?
Our struggle is real, every single day
[Voice on the Mountain]
I climbed for love, to light the way
From up here, I see a brighter day
[Voice in the Swamp]
But your light, it's a distant gleam
How do we trust, when you're seldom seen?
Every day we toil in shadows and mire
Losing hope in this endless quagmire
[Voice on the Mountain]
I hold this torch, not for my gain
To pierce the dark, ease the pain
[Voice in the Swamp]
Your torch flickers, in night's deep shroud
We've lost our faith, in skies so loud
How can we rise, when we're chained to the ground?
In the muck, where hope's not found
[Voice on the Mountain]
My hand is warm, reach out and feel
Strength to climb, is very real
[Voice in the Swamp]
You promise sight, yet we live in dusk
Faces downcast, hearts turned to rust
We're drowning here, in the shadows we weep
Do you hear our cries, in your mountain deep?
[Voice on the Mountain]
I hear you clear, every plea you send
My heart breaks too, I'm not just a friend
[Voice in the Swamp]
You speak of hope, but can you relate?
To the hunger, the weight of this fate
We've dreams too, trapped in this marsh
In the cold and rain, life is harsh
[Voice on the Mountain]
I was once there, knee-deep and bound
That's why I climbed, for what I found
[Voice in the Swamp]
We scrape by, with wounds that never mend
You speak of peaks, but how does it end?
We're bound by chains, invisible and tight
Your view's so far from our endless night
[Voice on the Mountain]
I climbed for courage, to blaze a trail
For those below, to rise and prevail
[Voice in the Swamp]
But in this mire, we're lost in despair
Feel abandoned, you breathe different air
How can we follow, when fears hold tight?
In the swamp, there's no end in sight
[Voice on the Mountain]
In every climb, there's pain to endure
But with each step, our hopes restore
[Voice in the Swamp]
Your words of climbing, they seem so grand
But down here, we can barely stand
Mud holds us tight, our dreams at bay
Struggling night turns into day
[Voice on the Mountain]
Each step I took was born from love
Not from pride or pain above
[Voice in the Swamp]
Too many nights, lost in the haze
Wandering aimless, lost in young days
Your view is clear, so high above
But down here we fall, where's the love?
[Voice on the Mountain]
My love is strong, a beacon bright
Guiding through the darkest night
Please come to me, follow my call
There is room for you, one and all.
[epic guitar solo]
[Voice in the Swamp]
Your view may be grand, but you don't know
The tangled roots and the muck below
We fight for each breath, in this world of gray
How can you understand our fray?
[Voice on the Mountain]
I climbed for all who seek the light
To help you rise, from darkest night
[Voice in the Swamp]
It's easy to speak, from your distant height
We're plowing through darkness, void of light
How can we trust, through the fear and pain?
Every night falls, shadows remain
[Voice on the Mountain]
I climbed these rocks, through storms and fire
To light your path, to inspire
Every ounce of strength to move through these tears again
Up here, we see the horizon's end
You've shown us how to grasp the dawn
We'll climb together, our faith reborn
Together we'll rise, our new day begun
The journey to heights, for every one
Step by step we will climb ever higher,
Until we stand on the highest spire.
[chorus epic crescendo]
For freedom have we come
The night is done
The love we share
Now in the purest air
[/chorus]
