Lyrics
[Intro]
[trumpet]
[Verse 1]
Leather seats, worn and weary, clutch the old who rule, so dreary.
Short-sighted moves in blindfold games, ticking clocks spell out their names.
They barricade their gilded thrones, mute to the future's urgent tones,
Fossil lords, relics of rust, in younger hands, trust we must.
[Chorus]
Rise, young hearts, take the stage,
Craft new tales for the modern age,
Shed old fears, embrace the light,
Forge our days, bright and right.
[tribal drums]
[Verse 2]
In boardrooms lush, their power wanes, where gold grows dull and greed stains,
Last gasps of sway before the night, twilight's fall, out of sight.
They grip the past, fear the new, while outside, change brews true,
The cost will come, the young will bear, in the fallout of their despair.
[Bridge]
Echoes of the old in the grey vote sway,
Dreams of youth rise clear as day.
Turn the page to tomorrow's might,
Before hope's ship sails out of sight.
[Chorus]
Rise, young hearts, take the stage,
Craft new tales for the modern age,
Shed old fears, embrace the light,
Forge our days, bright and right.
[solo]
[Bridge]
Echoes of the old in the grey vote sway,
Dreams of youth rise clear as day.
Turn the page to tomorrow's might,
Before hope's ship sails out of sight.
[Chorus]
Rise, young hearts, take the stage,
Craft new tales for the modern age,
Shed old fears, embrace the light,
Forge our days, bright and right.
[Verse 3]
Pass the torch, let go the reign,
Old idols fall, their time wane.
From fossil fuels to fossil thoughts,
Break free, unbind the age-old knots.
[Outro]
With vibrant hope and fervent zest,
Empower youth to do their best.
Time urges, stakes unfurl,
Pass the helm, watch the new world swirl.
[Instrumental Outro]
