We can choose the way of our future

Try a brand new path, if I change the world, if I change the world…

Say goodbye to everyone who stands against us
No one has the power to stop a change that comes through music
No, you can’t stop magic

Close your eyes and you can see the future before you
Every note I sing is bringin’ you closer to your purpose
Once you're there don’t let go

You wanna play a real game, unfurl the chain
Melody strung out like we’re walkin’ on a tight rope,
Don’t wanna try, don’t wanna cry, wanna forget
Just wanna live inside a dreamland, Wanna be free!
And let a brand new era dawn, I know that we can
Create a New World!

We can choose the way of our future
Try a brand new path, if I change the world, if I change the world
This boundless music brings transformation, messages in song reach even further
This dream will come true, “I believe in you”

Say goodbye to everything that’s weighing you down
Transcend beyond reality to colorful worlds of music
We need to keep on rising

Close your eyes and take my hand we’re runnin’ together
We don’t have to live like this, I know we can all do better
I sing for liberation

You wanna play a real game, unfurl the chain
Melody lighting up the path to new horizons
Don’t wanna try, don’t wanna cry, wanna forget
Just wanna live inside a dreamland, wanna be free!
And let a brand new era dawn, I know that we can
Create a New World!

We can choose the way of our future
Try a brand new path, if I change the world, if I change the world
This boundless music brings transformation, messages in song
Reach even further, reach even further. A New Genesis

A New Genesis
