[Tom Braden]

A distant thunder shakes him in his nightmare
Familiar faces that he can't let go
An ancient temple rises from the valley
Built for the gods 500 years ago
Sacred alters await the chosen bodies
The priests will offer 20, 000 souls

The blood of my people gave power to the sun
The pain that they suffered is embodied in me

The ritual has begun
Stealing their hearts as they still beat
The fuel the rising sun
Hast the night the more they bleed

Ancestral Energy
Born from their tragedy
Thousand have paid the price
One shall remain

Skills of an ancient race
Masters of art and shaping stone
A magic he will embrace
Rekindle the craft to be his own
The energy will survive
Flowing from him endlessly
The city of sacrifice
Centuries gone and still it breathes!

Ancestral Energy
Born from their tragedy
Thousand would pay the price
One shall remain
Ancestral Energy
The source of his mastery
Blood of the sacrifice runs trough his veins!


[Matthew Barlow]

We are those left of the stories untold
Puring our pain trough the gift that you hold
Out of your fury we'll rise once again
Give new life with the stroke of your pen

Now we live again
Trought the stone and pen

Men from the east came with truth in their eyes
Promising glory that soon turned to lies
Guiding us willingly step after step
Up the great temple where fate would be met

Now we live again
Through your imagination

Sacrificed
Gave our lives
Spilled our blood!
For their god!

Trough your life we refuse to die!

[Tom Braden]

The voices speak to me
I hear them in my dreams
Although I am the last
I know I'm not alone

I carry the weight of a civilization
A vessel of their energy
Born to creat the greatest creations
The world has ever seen
Have ever seen


A journey has come to pass
Sealing his fate their souls combine
So many will feel the wrath
Cursing his foes through their designs

Ancestral Energy
The source of his mastery
Blood of the sacrifice runs trough his veins!

(They sacrificed, gave new life through their pain)

Ancestral Energy
The source of his mastery
Blood of the sacrifice runs trough his veins!

They gave new life
(Sacrificed)
Sacrificed
(gave new life)
Free their pain!
(Free their pain!)
