In the shadows of the past its written deep
Visions of a prophet while the nàtions sleeps
Second Esdras speaks where the lost ones weep
Secrets of the end where the wise ones keep
Seven visions blaze like fire in the night
The angel speaks truth shedding holy light
A world in decay but there's hope in sight
Through the chaos we rise and we fight for what's right
Questions of justice answers of pain
Why do the righteous suffer while the wicked gain
Esdras asks boldly and the heavens explain
It's a test of the soul like cleansing rain
Flip the pages let the wisdom unfurl
Prophecies shining like diamonds and pearls
The book is ancient but the truth is fresh
Second Esdras echoes in the heart and flesh
Second Esdras in my mind it's a flame that burns
Every page that I flip there's a lesson to learn
Hidden in the chapters where the righteous yearn
The world turns but the truth confirms
From the ancient scrolls where the truth is deep
Visions of the prophets in the nights they weep
Wisdom drops heavy like the rain from skies
Questions of the cosmos where the answers lie
Angels on the rise with the trumpets sound
Judgment in the air where the lost are found
Parables of fire carving through the haze
Through the book of visions I'm lost for days
Lines written in the stars and the ancient trees
Whispers of the spirit in the summer breeze
Prophecies unravel when the veil is torn
In the heart of struggle that's where truth is born
Kingdoms will fall but the words remain
Through the wars and the fire and the endless pain
Guidance in the shadows when the world's unsure
Through the visions of Esdras my soul's secure
Second Esdras in my mind it's a flame that burns
Every page that I flip there's a lesson to learn
Hidden in the chapters where the righteous yearn
The world turns but the truth confirms
