From SP1: “Those Who Roar Last” (The Prequel)
(Music: M. Gambino, P. Pineyro, J. D’Aqui / Lyrics: M. Gambino)
***Song opens with bass/drum descent, and ends with bass/drum ascent
Can’t believe the way it went
The time and energy I spent
I just never dared to think
I could ever lose my way
Thinkin’ that the chance had gone
For love ever to return
Now’s the time for clear rewind
Of the echoes in my mind
You’ve lifted me… Up from the ashes!
Couldn’t happen fast enough
Waiting game was getting rough
I guess events had run their course
But was I asking for too much?
Wanting hard to believe
A better fate awaited me
Don’t know what I would have done
If you never came along.
You’ve lifted me… Up from the ashes!
Shining like a ray of light
I still cannot believe the way
A stroke of luck looked me up
Found me on the day we met
I could never say enough
About the way you changed my life
You would teach me how to learn
To finally feel like I deserved,
Something other than being down,
You lifted me… You lifted me… You lifted me… Up from the ashes!
