about

Inspired by Robert Wiesehan's epic fantasy book, "Aurora Knights: Loyalties"

lyrics

the world thinks I deserve
the role I'm in today
but I have little control over
what I do and say

I was trusted to be wise
keep my eyes on the cause
with little room to navigate
these ancient laws

could I really live 
with one foot in each 
of these two different worlds 
without feeling torn in half

the fate of the world is in my hands
where do I stand, where do I stand

I've been manipulated
used as a pressured pawn
my father has an agenda
and he's taking me along

he says our blood is thicker than
the history of our land
but the more I educate myself
the less I understand

could I really live 
with one foot in each 
of these two different worlds 
without feeling torn in half

the fate of the world is in your hands
where do you stand, where do you stand

I'm torn from two sides
what's fair and what's right
conflicting expectations
when to fight or to flight

I deny your power
your selfish policy 
I need to follow my heart
and set my conscience free

the fate of the world is in our hands
where do we stand, where do we stand
