"Sentinel" lyrics

"Sentinel"

Born into a life of luxury
Born into a life of war
Seeing what my genius was used or
I've decided to give something more
My mind, my body, my mortality
I've found purpose I'm not afraid
I'm not afraid to die

Looking in
I can now reach and touch the sky

What really makes a man a man?
Is it love? Loss? Or his will?
What really makes a man a man?
Is it love? Loss? Or his will to survive?

I've put these people in danger
With the weapons I create
Once the merchant of death
Now an advocate of peace
My mind, my body, my mortality
I've found purpose I'm not afraid
I'm not afraid to die

Looking in
I can now reach and touch he sky

Sentinel
Sentinel

My creation and I are in sync
My creation and I are in sync
Bonded the soul to the machine

Born into a life of luxury
Born into a life of war
Seeing what my genius was used for
I've decided to give something more
My mind, my body, my mortality
I've found purpose I'm not afraid
I'm not afraid to die

What really makes a man a man?
Is it love? Loss? Or his will?
What really makes a man a man?
Is it love? Loss? Or his will to survive?

Looking in
I can now reach and touch the sky
Looking in
I can now reach and touch the sky

Sentinel
Sentinel

My creation and I are in sync
My creation and I are in sync
Bonded the soul to the machine
Bonded my blood with circuitry
