Prophets Lyrics

Others may tell you how to live
But I can assure you that your life
Is in your own hands
And you can mold it into any shape you want

Though you must have faith
While you're searching for the answers
That we're all longing for
And we are left to salvage for our aspirations
Be what you want to be
And leave the rest behind you

Anyone can follow blindly
But it's up to you to rise above the masses
And chase your dreams
Because in the end
They will become reality

You cannot lead us from our path
As we are weighed down by our ambitions
And all the force in the world
Cannot make us falter

We are all prophets in the making
And our legacies are beginning to unfold
I will not go to my grave
Yearning for what could have been
I know exactly who I am
And I know exactly what I will become

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
