Something's Coming (Gothika: the Musical)
[MAKATA]
What's that sound,
Coming from afar?
Is it rain, or is it thunder?
Pain and sorrow
Seen in the distance
Run or fight, this is our chance.
Something's coming
Something's wrong
I hear the forest
Warning us all
We must leave
Or we must fight
Help me Mother Earth
Help me decide what's right
(Thunder)
[MOTHER EARTH]
Child.
I cannot tell you what to do
The choice to flee or stay, must come from you
Look in your soul, look to the sky
You are their leader, run or fight.
[CREATURES OF THE FOREST]
Look to us, call our names
Make your choice, you are brave
We'll be with you, with you we will fight
Make your choice, to do what's right
[MAKATA]
Come.
I summon you to rise
Swim through the waters
Swarm the skies
Prepare for battle
The choice has been made
Follow me
And join the brigade
[MAKATA and CREATURES] [MOTHER]
Now. Now.
We are on our way. You are on your way.
To save our people Defend my people
To fight for our race. Defend our race.
Please pray for us I give you this prayer
and lead us through to guide you on
this dangerous journey You made the right choice
Our Mother of truth. My noble son.
[MAKATA]
Mother protect us
We need you now
We have to defeat them
Show us how.
[MOTHER EARTH]
Look to the earth
Look to the skies
The answer will come to you
by surprise.
[MAKATA and CREATURES]
We will battle. We will soar.
Show no mercy. This is war.
For our people, for our lives
For you Mother Earth, we will survive.
