The Power Of One Lyrics - Sonata Arctica

"My father's land, my mother's tongue 

Misleaded me so shamelessly 

For many years I misbelieved 

The hatred is the path for me.." 

Father I have killed many angels, 

I think. 

I will now walk to the sea. 

I hope I will someday forgive me 

Please moor 

my empty boat on a pier 

I can blame for the blue blood that runs in my veins. 

But I seem to forget that we are all the same. 

In your own blaze of hate you've spawn the fear in many lifes 

You've taken action thinking it was all said on the signs. 

You cannot heal the feeling burning deep inside your spine 

You now collapse, cave in revealing scabby marks of life

Mother I've seen too much, I hate to live my life. 

Forgot every word you told me, stubborn little child, (angel of your life) 

I have to find my Eden now, the gates I left behind. 

But the pain will remain. 

No power to gain. 

Now I have time to dwell on, self awareness, dreadful crime. 

I saw the colors too bright, not knowing that I was blind. 

I slayed a man who took a chance and drank the forbidden wine. 

The map I draw reveals that I have been complete, machine, in team. 

Father I've seen too much, I hate to live my life. 

Forgot every word you told me, stubborn little child, (angel of your life) 

I have to find my Eden now, the gates I left behind. 

The pain will remain. 

No power to gain. 

Mother where's your son. 

When has this begun? 

Who has been the fool?

No one was born to be a servant or a slave. 

Who can tell me the color of the rain? 

In the world that we live in, the things said and done 

They can well overrun 

The power of one. 

No one was born to be a servant or a slave. 

Can you tell me the color of the rain? 

In the world that we live in, the things said and done 

They can well overrun 

The power of one. 

To live and let die 

To give hope and take life 

Is that what you're here for? 

To think that you are right 

To make sure it won't fly 

Is the making of a hate crime 

In the lands of the brave, 

In the homes of the land slaves, 

We are all the same 

I need to believe. 

There's more than the eye can see 

All colors of rainbow. 

No one was born to be a slave 

Seek the past and place the blame 

Tell me the color of the rain 

No one was born to be a master 

In the land we live, we die 

praise the oneness, praise the lie 

To bind a web around the faker 

We will need a true 

Rainmaker 

No one was born to be a slave 

Seek the past and place the blame 

Tell me the color of the rain 

No one was born to be a master 

"Children of Abel, Children of Cain 

Can live in harmony, without shame 

The keys that I grant thee, The Sacred Land 

Are dry desert sand on the palm of your hand 

Without the water, the wisdom of past 

Will run through your fingers, forgotten so fast 

Thus now when I leave you, I'm truly blind 

This blindness, this blessing, the hope of mankind..."
