Calamity Is Overrated

Through the flurry I saw trouble come
Then the smoke that rose like signals,
telling me something was off
So you can wait around however long it
takes to see so for yourself
Or gather what you want and come along
Because a pause is the only time it takes
For them to get a jump on us
So if you’re staying in, you best be braced
But if you’re coming out then let’s just go
But I can see an opening from here
and the the sound of so many voices,
making the rest disappear
And everything that came before this
serves no purpose,
let’s get one thing straight:
Our past is in the ashes, are we clear?
Cuz where we were there was no cause
worthy of a sacrifice
I tell you that there’s still hope now
But it was never there, so here we go…
free from the undertow
I ain’t ever gonna go down
