Trial by fire


Trial by fire
Unify this land of mine
They're all counting on me
So I must take the lead
Who am I to question the grand design
When it's written?
Mountains we have climbed
Oh, the odds we defied
Through the test of times
My people are defined
Through the years we've grown
We already know
To unify this division
I must take the throne, yeah

I call on you, my father
I may need your guidance
Protect me on this journey
If they should follow me
We claim the victory

Trial by fire
Unify this land of mine
They're all counting on me
So I must take the lead
Who am I to question the grand design
When it's written in the stars?
Written in the stars
Written in the stars
Written in the stars
Written in the stars
Written in the stars
Written in the stars
Written in the stars

Grant me the power
To do the best I can
This mere feat is not attempted
By an ordinary man
Child of a queen
The wisdom of a king
Fearless in battle
The warrior I am

The flame burning inside
You'll never conquer, conquer

The Ancestral plane
That's my father's place
Won't be captive in my land
No time and place
Oh, my people, it is time
We won't stop until it's over
Stand your ground as soldiers
We fight for glory

Trial by fire
Unify this land of mine
They're all counting on me
So I must take the lead
Who am I to question the grand design
When it's written in the stars?
Written in the stars
Written in the stars
Written in the stars
Written in the stars
Written in the stars
It's written in the stars
Written in the stars
Written in the stars
Written in the stars
Written in the stars
Written in the stars
