Fools' Gold

I've spent my entire life living underground
But with this war, my brand new purpose has been found
The world's dark truth is something that applies to you
So go and find it, but be safe
There's someone out there looking to replace

I have a power that select few understand
And with this power, I make life with my own hands
Strong heresy is something that applies to me
With rift hounds, robots, chalk, and sin
I welcome our new era to begin

Inside a world with divine air
I don't think that the gods would care
If humans came along and stole their job
I wanted it, I fought for it
So, now I will hold onto it
If they don't like that, I don't care at all

Unborn life, unfulfilled wishes, and tragic dreams
This universal darkness can't be cured, it seems
I'll try my best to lay our suffering down to rest
Knowledge is power, I've been told
I'll keep on going, win or lose or fold

The clock is ticking, now we're running out of time
The war is coming, now move forth to the front lines
Goodbye to those who wronged us, who dared to oppose
With Twilight Sword and Glacial Heart
I welcome our new era's shining start

Above our world where the gods lead
I bet we'd get them to concede
Their power to us if we were to fight
I learned from it, I've earned from it
So don't think that I'll turn from it
If they don't like that, they can go and die

So in this world with gods in it
Tell me why they would give a shit
If Khaenri'ah rose into sacred skies
These lives we shared, now a curse to bear
I thought that I could get us there
Celestia's hurt us for the last time
