[Intro] (Heavy, rhythmic drum hit: Boom-boom-CLACK) (Deep, rhythmic male choir chanting: "Ex pulvere, ex pulvere") (Pauken/Timpani rolls building up) (Vivian’s voice with a sharp, rhythmic "Ah!") [Verse 1] (Deep male choir - rhythmic and grounded) Memento homo, dust of the earth From the moment of our birth Forged in fire and the clay Walking through the heat of day One step forward, one step back Finding light within the black [Chorus] (Powerful and rhythmic: Choir and Vivian) From the dust to the divine Let the inner spirit shine With the rhythm of the soul Making every fragment whole Marching on, marching on Until the shadow is finally gone [Instrumental Break] (Focus: Powerful marching percussion and Timpani) (Staccato orchestral string hits) (Male choir rhythmic chanting: "Sursum, Sursum, Ad Lucem") [Verse 2] (Vivian Fragile - melodic and soaring over the beat) Higher than the iron walls Where the golden sunlight falls Every grain of sand we hold Turning into sacred gold We are more than bone and skin Let the ancient light begin [Chorus] (Powerful and rhythmic: Choir and Vivian) From the dust to the divine Let the inner spirit shine With the rhythm of the soul Making every fragment whole Marching on, marching on Until the shadow is finally gone [Bridge] (Percussion becomes more intense and tribal) (Spoken word - deep male voice: "You were born of the earth, but you are a child of the stars. Do not fear the path. The dust is only the beginning.") (Choir chanting in a rapid round: "Terra, Ignis, Spiritus!") [Verse 3] (Choir and Vivian - Grand rhythmic climax) Break the chains and break the ground In the music we are found Rising from the heavy floor To the ever-open door One last beat and one last cry As we reach the open sky [Chorus] (Powerful and rhythmic: Choir and Vivian) From the dust to the divine Let the inner spirit shine With the rhythm of the soul Making every fragment whole Marching on, marching on Until the shadow is finally gone [Outro] (The marching drum beat continues but slowly fades) (Male choir chanting: "Ex pulvere... ad divine...") (One final, massive Timpani hit) (Vivian’s voice fades on a high note) [End]
