We dug for treasure

We sail with the stars

We’re golden golems

Our children starve

We mine in Moria

We write in Estoria

We study ourselves

And put our souls up for sale on shelves

We’re slaves that rebelled

We’re the enemy of hell

We’re souls forever searching

For something more than ourselves

We’re transient troopers

Soon to be super

Human is our name

Our past is our shame

Our future is our fate

It is ours to shape

We can be mortal or we can be timelessly great

Some of us are evil

Some of us are good

Some of us know we’re not alone in our celestial neighborhood

Humbly made of earth

Greatly made of stars

Life is a judging of our hearts

Weaving myth from the fabric of truth

Forging swords of justice

Hands dirty with blood and soot

We will reclaim

Our forgotten name

Rise up from our shallow grave

And burst into heavenly flame

It’s time to take back

Everything we lack

We hold the cards

But the odds against us are stacked

Against our kind

Against our greatest minds

So set your sail to the wind

And roll with the tides

We are great

We are mankind
