Hope Is On The Way • The Havok Journal

Hope is on the Way…

You think it’s up, you think it’s cold,

you think it’s new, you think it’s old,

No matter, no matter why do you care?

You already know the end my friend

No matter, no matter why do you care?

The end of the story you see… the Victory

You know the truth

You know the drill

The armies marching and it looks uphill

I didn’t say

Easy it would be

Time to kick your shoes off

and dance with me

No more sorrow, hope is on the way

No matter, no matter if it’s a brand new day?

The fathers laughing as if you’re already there

No matter, no matter why do you care

You know the truth

Times not standing still,

I haven’t left the throne

You know what is real

Demons are running

Away and out of sight

Celebrate and be children of the light

As Eagles soar

Far above the storms

If you will fly with me

I’ll keep you from all harm

If you will fly with me

I’ll keep you from all harm
