Keepers Of Fellow Man Lyrics

Let it be known that this has gone on for far too long
And we can take no more

Through the years I have come to realize
That the truth is often right before our eyes
We are aware and know the hearts of fellow man
So let us act as such and help our brothers to stand

And now we offer this small bit of wisdom
The heart it came from will set you on your way

Ignorance will crush us, destroy all that we have
So let us rejoice that, the powers in our hands
To shape us and make us keepers of fellow man
So let us rejoice that the powers in our hands

Let us find strength in our neighbors hands

We are not creatures made to be alone
And when we act as such we help our brothers to stand

And now we offer this small bit of wisdom
The heart it came from will set you on your way
And now I ask you to take heed of my words
To move with purpose to a future worth living

Ignorance will crush us, destroy all that we have
So let us rejoice that, the powers in our hands
To shape us and make us keepers of fellow man
So let us rejoice that the powers in our hands

It is time to address the fact that alone
None of us can survive

And now we offer this small bit of wisdom
The heart it came from will set you on your way

Ignorance will crush us, destroy all that we have
So let us rejoice that, the powers in our hands
To shape us and make us keepers of fellow man
So let us rejoice that the powers in our hands

Let us find strength in our neighbors hands

We are not creatures made to be alone
And when we act as such we help our brothers to stand

And now we offer this small bit of wisdom

To shape us and make us keepers of fellow man
So let us rejoice that the powers in our hands

It is time to address the fact that alone
None of us can survive

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.

I believe it is just about standing up for yourself (or something). That we should band or pull together, stop divison among eachother, i.e. countries, different groups with different opinions. Pull together and work toward one goal.

"It is time to address the fact that alone None of us can survive"

This world won't last long if we are constantly fighting each other, killing each other and senselessly inhibiting progression through the fighting. Only way for us to survive is to work together.

That is just my take atleast.

This is my favorite song by ATR! I feel that it has a good message to us people that we need to stand up for those who are weaker than we are. As they say "We are aware and know the hearts of fellow man So let us act as such and help our brothers to stand." We need to stop senseless killing. "Ignorance will crush us, destroy all that we have." It's the job of those who know how, and have the power to, stand up for their fellow man when the time come and presents itself. ROCK ON ATR!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
