9. Ascension (Dream State Armageddon) (5:16)
Inhale the strength to play
Blow barricades away
This universe implodes
Reality unloads
Find yourself a thousand worlds
Pick the one that suits you most
Will a choice put you at ease?
Than grab your chance to slay the beast
Keep searching for your destiny
And you will find all that will set your free
Keep moving onwards endlessly
To evolve and become on
One piece
The universe implodes
When our dream state explodes
Find yourself dreaming your life
Do you truly feel alive?
Comprehend the sacred code
That makes your universe implodes
Keep searching for your destiny
And you will find all that will set your free
Keep moving onwards endlessly
To evolve and become on
Our ego will lead us to endless penance
This journey shall wake us don't dream forever
The Matrix of reality transforms the cosmic energy
Our ego won't spare us these endless failures
This journey wil guide us don't dream forever
Rise
Nothing appears to be what it really is as we believe in the illusions
Free yourself from walking in circles
This will be the end of the world as we know it
Your ascension will begin
Keep searching for your destiny
And you will find all that will set your free
Keep searching for your legacy
And you will find all answers undoubtedly
Keep looking forwards endlessly
To evolve and unite the world to become one piece
Blow barricades away
This universe implodes
Reality unloads
Find yourself a thousand worlds
Pick the one that suits you most
Will a choice put you at ease?
Than grab your chance to slay the beast
Keep searching for your destiny
And you will find all that will set your free
Keep moving onwards endlessly
To evolve and become on
One piece
The universe implodes
When our dream state explodes
Find yourself dreaming your life
Do you truly feel alive?
Comprehend the sacred code
That makes your universe implodes
Keep searching for your destiny
And you will find all that will set your free
Keep moving onwards endlessly
To evolve and become on
Our ego will lead us to endless penance
This journey shall wake us don't dream forever
The Matrix of reality transforms the cosmic energy
Our ego won't spare us these endless failures
This journey wil guide us don't dream forever
Rise
Nothing appears to be what it really is as we believe in the illusions
Free yourself from walking in circles
This will be the end of the world as we know it
Your ascension will begin
Keep searching for your destiny
And you will find all that will set your free
Keep searching for your legacy
And you will find all answers undoubtedly
Keep looking forwards endlessly
To evolve and unite the world to become one piece
