A Future Earned

Look here my child, I know who you are
I've been here this long
I've known you through all your years
See now my child, you've gone too far
Left to your own
You're burning through all my fears

Stricken from a warm embrace
Pieced together what we are
Yet to see our mothers face
Waiting for our shooting star

Come together precious ones and stand before the fall
From this day you live with what you've learned
Stay together precious ones and answer to us all
Gaze towards a future that we've earned

All I know, what you are
Yet I see It's come this far
As it is, you've carved your place
And still, you wear your mother's face
As we run faster now
Breakneck speeds I can't allow
Soon my child I must let go
But my love I can't say no

Come together precious ones and stand before the fall
From this day you live with what you've learned
Stay together precious ones and answer to us all
Gaze towards a future that we've earned

Higher, higher grows our legacy
Higher, higher peaks our heresy
Higher, higher now that we can see
Higher, higher without clarity

Listen now, o precious one, stay calm before the storm
I'll be with you yet forevermore
But listen here o precious one from the day you're born
You have been the burden that I bore

Come together precious ones and stand before the fall
From this day you live with what you've learned
Stay together precious ones and answer to us all
Gaze towards a future that we've earned
Gaze towards the things we never learned
