Lyrics
There's the time we cannot go back All the way to our father's land Now we're fighting hard in common land It's a cycle of karma There's a chance we've found our wonderland As we reach to the promised land We were struggling in the underground Now as we dreamt

Always same just win or lose We are blinded by the answer Blame is hell the unknown soldier We are blinded by the power

Watch out All's quiet in the forest Grab your shot gun Shoot in the dark Pull the trigger Something's hiding Look back Find out Where the hell are we?

The escaped from mother earth How did we get here mom? From massive explosion day, then Looking down on the town of New L.A. We gotta help each other as fellow

We had our time on mother earth All the way to our father's land Now we're fighting hard in common land It's a cycle of karma There's a chance we've found our wonderland As we reach to the promised land We were struggling in the underground We'll find ourselves Now as we dreamt

She was standing there in the hangar The hatch was open then There's no one there He was drifting along in the universe That was the last time I saw his face

There's the time we cannot go back All the way to our father's land Now we're fighting hard in common land It's a cycle of karma There's a chance we've found our wonderland As we reach to the promised land We were struggling in the underground We'll find ourselves Now as we dreamt

Never not ever we won't be sober Father Mother give us strength more more Never not ever Got any power? Father Mother give us strength more more

Always same just win or lose We are blinded by the answer Blame is hell the unknown soldier We are blinded by the power

Always same just win or lose We are blinded by the answer Blame is hell the unknown soldier We are blinded by the power
