[Team StarKid, Jaime Lyn Beatty, James Tolbert, Jon Matteson, Curt Mega, Jeff Blim - Monsters and Men lyrics]
Sometimes you gotta wake and answer the call
Or fall no need to raise the stakes
When you're on the wall stand tall
Sometimes you gotta fill your jets
Sometimes you gotta slow your breath
Sometimes you gotta step into
The Black and White
And face the thing you dread
Sometimes you gotta stand on up
Sometimes you gotta make your case
Sometimes you gotta step into
The Black and White and needle that thread
'Cause there are monsters and there are men
There are monsters that live in your head
There are monsters that we all should dread
So join the fight and try your might
Step in the Black and White
There are forces in this world
That mean you real harm
If your soul is unarmed
It is nothing on your phone
We need every hand
For a scrum that's undermanned
The truly good versus the truly bad
You'd better learn to discern it quickly
Boys it's the only chance we have
You'd better align your soul
With what's good and right
Join the only fight that's left
And scour the Black and White
For there are monsters and there are men
There are monsters that live in your head
It is the monsters who should live in dread
And fear our might join the fight
Into the Black and White
So, we're not exactly dealing
With terrorists here
Not exactly
What do you want from me?
Look me in the eye now, sir
And make a solemn vow
To become your best self now
I know our opponent, sir
Requires nothing less
Than your absolute best
I know it's hard
The world is pain and distraction
But there's occasions met by lesser men
Who took the lead
It must be you
It must be me
Never take your office lightly
I'll never take my office lightly
You must fill your heart
Make good with God immediately
There are monsters and there are men
There are monsters that live in your head
It is the monsters who shall live in dread
So, join the fight
Against the real plight
When monsters are real
You'd better forge a heart of steel
To cast the darkness from light
You've gotta step into the Black and White
Or fall no need to raise the stakes
When you're on the wall stand tall
Sometimes you gotta fill your jets
Sometimes you gotta slow your breath
Sometimes you gotta step into
The Black and White
And face the thing you dread
Sometimes you gotta stand on up
Sometimes you gotta make your case
Sometimes you gotta step into
The Black and White and needle that thread
'Cause there are monsters and there are men
There are monsters that live in your head
There are monsters that we all should dread
So join the fight and try your might
Step in the Black and White
There are forces in this world
That mean you real harm
If your soul is unarmed
It is nothing on your phone
We need every hand
For a scrum that's undermanned
The truly good versus the truly bad
You'd better learn to discern it quickly
Boys it's the only chance we have
You'd better align your soul
With what's good and right
Join the only fight that's left
And scour the Black and White
For there are monsters and there are men
There are monsters that live in your head
It is the monsters who should live in dread
