lyrics

You seeking knowledge carved in ageless stone,
enter the huge stony gate.
Oh, let your mind travel way back in time,
see what really is.
In ancient Egypt a giant was raised,
built to last conveying meanings
never to be thrown away.

CHORUS
Time cannot hide
the majesty of some minds,
of those who built the pyramid.
Extraordinary notions,
forgotten knowledge links
accumulated wisdom,
our ancient legacy stands silently
unrevealed treasury.

Let us discover the secrets of yours
which have been faded by time.
Oh, let us interpret all of the signs
see through cloudy mist.
Your shape has been telling forgotten truths,
each and every rock you're made of
belongs to the whole mankind.

CHORUS

The seeds have been sown
yet the time has not come
just the early adopters
will soon understand.

No trait can be read
yet the ones with insight
are the ones that believe
that the pyramid's right.

Sinking into emptyness
narrow-minded ignorance.
