We Are Guardian

All things are connected, the human race is expected
To keep things in balance, in our beautiful worldly palace
As guardians we stand to protect the living land, like all civilizations
There’s always expectations, and to those who believe
Laws can be deceived, she will always find you
Standing right behind you, as she is what binds us
So come out and fight us, she is everything, everyone
Burning bright like the sun, many ponder the meaning of life
For it is a question of much strife, what is our purpose?
Why were we made? And will we ever fade?
And today we choose our path, to become a guardian of the earth
Or a king of pain, death and greed, you know of which will succeed
For we know the answer, to keep things in balance
in our beautiful worldly palace…
