[Intro: Jonathan Young]
Carry the light

[Verse 1: Cam Steady]
What is a destiny?
How am I blessed with new breath in me?
Where is the lesson, now why are they testing me?
Who am I to be one to beat death and it seems
That I passed in the past and I rose
After the traveler traveled my home
Back when we fell to falling, I found in my soul
That they can’t take our light if they can’t take our hope

You can call me a wolf and I still got that dog in me
Ward of humanity’s progeny
Got me now launching grenadеs and my sentinel sword
Give mе more than a bark and a bite in this war
Ghost got a body and brought it to life
With a rifle and blade ’till my race reunite
I’m grenading and blazing through waves and the blight
With the lords we are raiding for haven tonight
And I battled with death, but I’m darning to die
Back of a sparrow, I’m tearing the sky
Lord of the wolves with a barrel aside
For my pack I will carry the light

[Chorus: Jonathan Young]
Carry the light into the night
Keeping humanity alive
Carry the light every fight
Standing together side by side
Carry the light

[Verse 2: Cam Steady]
What is a destiny if not a tale
Detailing the end of a fight
What is the dead to me? I have been dead every way
But today, I am feeling alive

Latent, your greatness is placed in your sights
Brace and take aim for the fate that you like
We all need a reason to breathe and to bleed
Even reapers believe that atonement’s a scythe
And I fight for the Earth, call on your kind
Fallen will hurt, colonies rise
Whether you wield a bow or a snipe
Know that no evil wins if you hold by my side
But all of the bounties, they’re boundless to claim
People united in light of your name
Light is our destiny, carry the weight
To ignite it and light us the way

[Chorus: Jonathan Young]
Carry the light into the night
Keeping humanity alive
Carry the light every fight
Standing together side by side
Carry the light

[Post-Chorus: Jonathan Young]
Carry the light
Carry the light

[Pre-Chorus: Jonathan Young & Cam Steady]
What is a destiny if not a tale
Detailing the end of a fight
What is a destiny if not a tale
Detailing the end of a fight, uh
Battled with death, but I’m darning to die
Back of a sparrow, I’m tearing the sky
Lord of the wolves with a barrel aside
For my pack I’m gonna

[Chorus: Jonathan Young]
Carry the light into the night
Keeping humanity alive
Carry the light every fight
Standing together side by side
Carry the light into the night
Keeping humanity alive
Carry the light every fight
Standing together side by side
Carry the light

[Outro: Cam Steady, Jonathan Young]
What is a destiny if not a tale
Detailing the end of a fight
What is the dead to me? I have been dead every way
But today, I am feeling alive (Carry the light)
And I battled with death, but I’m darning to die
Back of a sparrow, I’m tearing the sky
Lord of the wolves with a barrel aside
For my pack I will carry the light (Carry the light)
