Monsters and Men

Sometimes

You gotta wake

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

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 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 better learn to discern it quickly, boys

It's the only chance we have

You 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)

(But what do you want from me?)

Look me in the eye now, sir

And make a solemn vow

To become your best selves 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

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 better forge a heart of steel

To cast the darkness from light

You gotta step into the Black and White
