Human from Shadows & Smoke by Gio Navas

There’s a man-eating demon, it’s clawing at my chest.
I can’t explain it. I don’t understand its darkness yet.
I’m standing on the frontlines. The world is black and red.
I want to save us but you can’t save what’s already dead.

Humanity is in our hands.
I don’t want to be afraid but the blood rises every day.
We’re fighting at the crossroads of our lives
and we’re not going to lose.
Our will to live will pull us through.

We come from different stories, dark shadows in our eyes.
We fight to live, and yet, to fight is a promise to die.
Our hearts are pulsing hot. And we are terrified.
Seeing a better world is not done without sacrifice.

Humanity is in our hands.
I don’t want to be afraid. The body count rises every day.
We’re fighting at the crossroads of our lives
and we’re not going to lose.
Our will to live will pull us through.

We’re human, we’re alive.
We’re not ready to die.
We’re gambling with our souls
to see a better world.

We’re human, we’re alive.
We’ll do more than just survive.
Our will’s stronger than fear.
We’re human.
We’re still here.

Humanity is in our hands.
And we are still afraid, but we keep fighting anyway.
We draw blades at the crossroads of our lives
and we’re not going to lose.
Our will to live will pull us through.

We’re human, we’re alive.
We’ll do more than survive.
