The Earth Lives (Gothika: the Musical)

[MAKATA] When the rain falls, from the world above It brings light, it brings life. The world needs the power, The world needs the strength We need to give and live the life of earth. [RIGOTI] When the light shed on this place A new world is born It may not be the same But a new coat of life is worn [BOTH] The earth lives in you, and me. It shines for all to see. It’s a gift from the gods, who conquer all the odds By giving us life. The earth lives in you, and me It makes us family. The roots of the trees run through our veins And makes us all the same. [HORALIUS] In times I feared that life would end, I never knew what could be I wanted to live, I wanted to give I couldn’t find the power in me But now the earth conquered the odds With the help from the gods, The life of earth continues to grow And so the end will never be known. [ALL THREE] The earth lives in you, and me. It shines for all to see. It’s a gift from the gods, who conquer all the odds By giving us life. The earth lives in you, and me It makes us family. The roots of the trees run through our veins And makes us all the same. [CHORUS] A choice must be made, You cant be afraid Today is the day, You know the way Look in your mind, you’re one of a kind You’ve made your choice, now lift up your voice… [ALL] [MAKATA] The earth lives in you, It lives in you, and me. It shines for all to see. Shining for the world to see. It’s a gift from the gods, who conquer all the odds… A gift from the gods, to… Conquer the odds… [ALL] By giving us life [ALL] [MAKATA] The earth lives in you, and me You, and me. It makes us family. We are family. The roots of the tree run through our veins Yes, it runs through our veins And make us all the same We are all the same. [MAKATA] Give life to those in need. Give water to the seed. In order to get, you give Because… [ALL] …the…earth…lives.
