[INTRO] A child without a name... A promise to the leaves... A fire that never faded... [VERSE 1] Running through the storms with the fire inside Every scar became another step in the climb Village of leaves never looked my way Still I smiled through another broken day Silver mentor showed the hidden road Wandering sage helped me bear the load Shadow avenger walking far from the light Still I'd bring my brother back from the night Every failure forged another dream Nothing here was ever as it seemed Lonely child with a fearless soul Destiny never decided my goal [PRE-CHORUS] Hear the ancient drums ignite Hope is burning through the night Every heartbeat calls my name I became the living flame [CHORUS] HERO OF THE LEAVES RISE ABOVE THE PAIN WHEN THE WHOLE WORLD DOUBTS YOUR NAME STAND AGAIN HERO OF THE LEAVES NEVER BEND OR BREAK FROM THE ASHES WE BECOME THE LIGHT THEY CANNOT TAKE OH-OH-OH WE WERE BORN TO FIGHT OH-OH-OH KEEP THE FIRE ALIVE [VERSE 2] Nine-tailed guardian deep inside Turned my weakness into endless pride Crimson cloaks fell one by one Till the longest night had finally gone Ghost warlord shook the earth below Masked phantom hid behind the smoke Divine eyes couldn't stop this flame Faith became my strongest name Every promise carved in stone Every battle brought me home Now the children lift their eyes Watching hope begin to rise [FEMALE EMOTIONAL DROP] Even when the world turns away... I still believe you'll find your way... Through every tear... Through every fight... Your fire became our guiding light... [BRIDGE] Shadow echoes... Ancient sage... Spiraling sphere... Awaken... [FINAL DROP] BREAK THE DARKNESS BREAK THE SKY LET THE WILL OF FIRE RISE NO MORE FEAR NO MORE CHAINS WE TURN OUR SCARS INTO OUR FLAMES FROM THE LEAVES TO THE STARS EVERY DREAM BECOMES OURS [FINAL CHORUS] HERO OF THE LEAVES RISE ABOVE THE PAIN WHEN THE WHOLE WORLD DOUBTS YOUR NAME STAND AGAIN HERO OF THE LEAVES NEVER BEND OR BREAK FROM THE ASHES WE BECOME THE LIGHT THEY CANNOT TAKE OH-OH-OH WE WERE BORN TO FIGHT OH-OH-OH KEEP THE FIRE ALIVE [OUTRO] One promise... One flame... One hero... The leaves remember...
