Born in the Desert

I was born in the desert
In the year of the flood
In the city of the temple
Bathed in blood

I've walked through fire
I've shed my skin
I know where I'm going
I'm ready to begin

You tell me I'm too late
You tempt me to walk away
I'm pushing this boulder up the mountainside
Nothing to show for how hard I've tried

It's not in vain
It's gonna rain

I'm just getting started
Not going down
I've come this far
I won't turn around

A voice in me rages
A noiseless shout
Silently screaming
Let me out, let me out

You tell me I'm too late
You tempt me to walk away
I'm pushing this boulder up the mountainside
Nothing to show for how hard I've tried

It's not in vain
It's gonna rain

I've died the little death of a thousand little cuts
I resurrected, rose from the dust
Wandering the desert searching for a dream
I finally found who I was born to be

You tell me I'm too late
You tempt me to walk away
I'm pushing this boulder up the mountainside
Nothing to show for how hard I've tried

It's not in vain
It's gonna rain
I was born in the desert
I was born in the desert
I was born in the desert
