Animus lyrics

It is life's stated purpose to be lived And thus, my stated purpose to live it As time runs, I shall savor a stroll As time stands still, I shall devour each moment Be they fools, those who remember death only when confronted by it I am but a man, with but a life Guided by purpose Born from silence, forged in flame A shadow walks but knows its name Through broken vows and scars that gleam I rise again to chase the dream The weight of doubt can't bury me I've walked the edge, I've seen the sea Animus! Through despair I forge my crown Aenima! In the void I stand unbound Animus! Blood and spirit intertwine Till the day that I die Echoes call from the depths within A war of flesh, a war of sin No chains remain, no gods control The will unbound reclaim the soul! The fear dissolves, the heart believes In blood and truth, the spirit breathes Animus! I was torn, but I remain Aenima! Through the scars I feel alive Animus! No surrender, no disguise As animus survives Feel my soul!
