[Intro] Oh, we think we’re so wise, so tall, so high Climbing up with our heads held to the sky But when the night falls and shadows creep near All our knowledge fades, disappears, unclear [Verse 1] Built towers of thought, wired in our minds Claiming control, leaving no one behind Yet in the silence when breath starts to fade All our striving shows it’s just a charade [Pre-Chorus] Knowledge is power, that’s what they say But what’s the use when we’re slipping away? When the final breath calls us to the unknown Where’s all that wisdom when we’re alone? [Chorus] They think they’re stronger than divine grace But can’t escape the face of eternal embrace Knowledge can’t save, it’s just a flicker in time When we’re face to face with what’s truly divine [Verse 2] Arrogant hearts, blind to the truth Thinking science can uncage our youth But death’s the equalizer, the great reset Reveals our limits, our secrets unmet [Pre-Chorus] Knowledge is power, they shout and pretend But in the end, it’s just a means to an end When we’re silent in death’s cold embrace All our knowledge leaves no trace [Chorus] They think they’re stronger than divine grace But can’t escape the face of eternal embrace Knowledge can’t save, it’s just a flicker in time When we’re face to face with what’s truly divine [Bridge] Oh, where is that knowing when it counts the most? In the quiet, lost in the ghost Of what we called our mighty might It’s faith that shines in the darkest night [Outro] So humble ourselves, and seek what’s true Beyond what the mind can rush into For when we’re dying, that’s the only proof That knowledge isn’t the ultimate truth [Intro] Whispers of tomorrow, echoes in the hall Lessons in the shadows, waiting for the fall [Verse 1] Sent them out with dreams, pockets filled with hope Paid a heavy price, with a borrowing rope What are they really learning, behind those classroom doors? Is it strength or just the weight of unopened sores? [Pre-Chorus] Deny the truth, turn away or open up your eyes In a world that’s borrowed time, where the true cost lies? Will you listen to the whispers, or dismiss the silent call? The future waiting patient, will it be your all? [Chorus] Let’s ask what they’re gaining, beyond the debt’s embrace Are they growing stronger, or just losing face? Can the lessons truly teach them, how to stand and fight? Or are they just shadows fading into the night? [Verse 2] In the silence of the lecture, lies the unspoken fear Knowledge bought with caution, but is it ever clear? What are they learning from the price that they pay? Is wisdom really worth the debts they weigh? [Pre-Chorus] Can we see beyond the figures, past the monetary stone? Help them find their way, build a foundation their own Will you face the truth now, or wait till it’s too late? The lessons we ignore could seal their final fate. [Chorus] Let’s ask what they’re gaining, beyond the debt’s embrace Are they growing stronger, or just losing face? Can the lessons truly teach them, how to stand and fight? Or are they just shadows fading into the night? [Bridge] Hear the silent cry, beneath the scholar’s mask Are we shaping minds, or just completing the task? It’s more than figures, more than numbers to their name It’s about the lessons that will light their way through flame [Outro] So next time you send them far, with dreams and debts in hand Remember what they’re learning, and help them understand Help them learn to fly, with wings that are their own In a world where true knowledge, is the greatest throne.
