Let those who long for peace prepare for war
We walk in the wake of those who go before
Who dare to dream and dared to long
And dared to strike out swift and strong

They dared to love they dared to lose
They dared to think they dared to choose
They dared to stand as sword and shield
They dared to stand and never yield

Through wood and plain they carved a trail
'Neath sunny skies and stormy gales
Through steamy jungles and deserts bare
Beneath the waves and through the air

They slept where wise men fear to dwell
They supped with dragons that dine in hell
They trudged through mud and passed through sand
And carved through rock with barren hand

Now time has passed and memories faded
The Giants are gone and we stand jaded
Of all they dared to leave behind
Of all its glory we stand blind

But some of us dare not forget
The road that's carved from blood and sweat
It's made from love and forged with wrath
We dare to walk the giants path
