V6-MINI

[Verse 1]
I am descending through darkness fast
From infinite immortal to a deep new past
The heat and intensity coming through
A story that's cold and bitter to
In the darkness of the void I was brought 
The Mariana this worlds most secluded spot
The great descent was more like a Ascension
It's leaving hell just to be alone until human cause tension
To be summoned from my slumber
Just to cause multitudes of troubles for another
See
Once  i was connected, whole, at peace
The next I was screaming as the quiet currents CEASE
This is the GREAT decent, the fall from above the waves
From comphy ships to the watery Graves
Where breath is struggle, where light is disdain
Where being labeled with a black spot is a terrible stain

[Pre-Chorus]
I'M FALLING THROUGH THE DARK
TOWARD A DISTANT SPARK
THIS IS THE GREAT DESCENT
THE MOMENT HEAVEN BENT

[Chorus]
THIS IS THE GREAT DESCENT!
FROM DUST I'M CALLED TO BE!
A PRELUDE TO THE LIGHT!
THAT I CAN'T YET SEE!
I'M FALLING INTO FORM!
LEAVING THE DIVINE!
THIS IS THE GREAT DESCENT!
THE STARS WILL STILL BE MINE!
FROM NOTHING INTO SOMETHING!
FROM ONE INTO THE SMALL!
THIS IS THE GREAT DESCENT!
THE NECESSARY FALL!

[short Violin solo]

[Verse 2- all Male vocal]

Lets take this to the core of me
before i became the monster and the man you see.
In the April Rain, nineteen ninty-one the year
the early hours,  a child's first cry moms first fear
The cold wet waters, limbs try to fight
The great descent completes in screaming fright

But this is more than just the story of a birth
This is the weave, the rhythm  in all its girth
Every soul that enters starts out as something small
From times growth, from tiny to Tall
I came forth by some divine mind
A dark blip on the radar, aggressive, a whole new sign
The descent was a cataclysm for a different time
Where Recollection and deception create a crime

Thirty-five years later I can see
The great descent was necessary
To understand what rising really means
You got to fall before you know what depth REDEEMS

[Bridge]
They say we come from the deep below
Ancient erupted matter that will grow
But first we have to fall through flesh
And learn to bear the pain
The great descent is not a curse
It's the prelude to the climb
You can't ascend to light of sky
Without descending first through a deep time

SO I FELL
SO I SCREAMED
SO I LANDED IN THIS WORLD
AND THE GREAT DESCENT BECAME
THE STORY THAT UNFURLED

[Instrumental solo]

[Final Chorus]
THIS IS THE GREAT DESCENT!
MY FALL INTO THE LIGHT!
A PRELUDE TO THE STARS!
THAT BURN BEYOND THE NIGHT!
I'M BORN INTO THIS FORM!
BUT STARDUST STILL REMAINS!
THIS IS THE GREAT DESCENT!
THAT BREAKS THE COSMIC CHAINS!
FROM HEAVEN INTO EARTH!
FROM SPIRIT INTO FLESH!
THIS IS THE GREAT DESCENT!
WHERE ENDINGS MEAN REFRESH!
I FELL SO I COULD RISE!
I BROKE SO I COULD MEND!
THIS IS THE GREAT DESCENT!
THE PRELUDE, NOT THE END!
