Time is now

I look at the clock as it begins to strike
I hear the devil knocking at my door
I look outside on a rainy night
Now wondering what my life is for

Some thunder claps and lightning hits
A tree may fall from just one touch
The truth is now impossible to resist
No easy way to discern and simply trust

The road in life can break your heart
The path you took could bring you peace
One dreadful move and now back to start
A fish is caught but no release

The moon and sun will cast a shadow
The soul inside will light your path
The inner demons that have come to battle
The monster's anger, the villain's wrath

Your sword of light may cast protection
A soldier stands and holds his line
A king, his throne, your first impression
No going back, it's now your time

To run or fight, your one decision
To yield or try, you show your will
To lead or fall, the final vision
A story of legend, a scholar's quill

A diamond shines from a tiny rock
The fire burns beneath the ground
To climb a mountain, the steps you walk
A final voice, your final sound

A jouney begins with a single step
A journey ends with a single leap
Your past and future, your road is set
Your final form you hope to meet
