I am drowning in a dark pool
Taking the negative to a duel
I summon energy with all my might
Whom will win this final fight?
Behind me stands all that is good
They, in front wear the dark hood
I pray to my almighty mother
As we circle around each other
She continuously walks with me
Giving me the love I share I see
My heart’s strength cannot shatter
I will not be conquered or battered
For I speak the truth of life
Never remaining in your strife
For they silently follow
Ready to swallow
The lost souls are bound
Never again to be found
In darkness they are lost
Evil to them is boss
But I will never give in
Not ever to this sin
I grasp at the power
My soul never to sour
The sword is within my hand
Swinging no mercy where evil lands
Light and love
Always rises above
In us is always the smallest spark
It’s not always given to the dark
You might have won at a time
When self abuse was our crime
But now we stand strong in relief
That love and passion are our belief
You cannot have me or my friends
This is where your path ends
Go back where you came from
My cords are about to strum
As we spread our simple song
For those who have been waiting so long
Climbing this huge mountain
Being washed in mothers’ fountain
Souls full of serenity and peace
Across this land is now released
Whispers are now heard
On the wings of birds
A good riddance I bid the dark beings
The mother’s true light sending them fleeing
For within the swirling light
It was easy to take this flight
Because we have the upper hand
Spirits are the music of the band
