Your Memorial - Legacy lyrics

I once heard a man say
'a lot of time we hear and nod our heads
Nothing changes, it all just stays the same'
But why is that so true today?
Spanning from when time began
Our actions rarely change
More than ever the heart becomes a stone
Instead of a beating drum with a purpose

Something's missing, I can feel it
Something's missing
A feeling that's incomplete
You could hear the most
Profound thing ever spoken
And wake up the next day
As if it never happened
I heard another man speak today
Continually using the phrase
'We need to leave a legacy for our families'

But what I want to know
Is where did our lives
Change from father and son to dad on the run?
A vicious cycle of deviation
The time is now for an act of restoration

You could hear the most
Profound thing ever spoken
And wake up the next day
As if it never happened

No longer will I settle for
The standard of society
I will leave a legacy
No longer will I conform to
The patterns of this earth
I will leave a legacy
