Children of Fire Lyrics
We were born to fight!
Here I stand
My breath has been waiting
for the clouds to burst
I pray and scream
Come what may!
Dear God,
Lift me up from this ground of pain
The heat has reached a degree that's bringing me to fate
A fate that sweat have remained to contend the grave
Despite the sting, we're waiting 'til you bring our fate
We're singing,
WE ARE THE CHILDREN OF FIRE
WE ARE THE LIONS
WE STAY, WHEN ALL ELSE DESERTED
'CUZ WE WERE BORN TO FIGHT, AND FIGHT, AND FIGHT!
I see you, tattered and bruised
You're the only ones who remain true
I hear your call, through the thick of it all
You've waited so long for the rescue
Our time has come!
I'm sweating red
I'm sweating red
I'm sweating red
I'm red
I'm sweating red
I'm sweating red, red, red
I'm sweating red
I'm sweating red
I'm red
I'm sweating red
I'm sweating red, red, red
It turns full bloom
The sky comes unglued
It falls to the earth as my answer
It's so far from rain
But life will feel pain
As it singes their skin
But for you, I will see
And what this sin feels like having on my skin
Cuz finally I am free to never breathe again
My body lives through the ground I was rooted in
I pass the spark as it reaches to the rest of them
WE ARE THE CHILDREN OF FIRE
WE ARE THE LIONS
WE STAY, WHEN ALL ELSE DESERTED
'CUZ WE WERE BORN TO FIGHT, AND FIGHT, AND FIGHT!
WE ARE THE CHILDREN OF FIRE
WE ARE THE LIONS
WE STAY, WHEN ALL ELSE DESERTED
'CUZ WE WERE BORN TO FIGHT, AND FIGHT, AND FIGHT!
Ignite, ignite, ignite the world
Ignite, ignite, ignite the world
Ignite, ignite, ignite the world
Ignite the world and let it burn
My breath has been waiting
for the clouds to burst
I pray and scream
Come what may!
Lift me up from this ground of pain
The heat has reached a degree that's bringing me to fate
A fate that sweat have remained to contend the grave
Despite the sting, we're waiting 'til you bring our fate
WE ARE THE CHILDREN OF FIRE
WE ARE THE LIONS
WE STAY, WHEN ALL ELSE DESERTED
'CUZ WE WERE BORN TO FIGHT, AND FIGHT, AND FIGHT!
You're the only ones who remain true
I hear your call, through the thick of it all
You've waited so long for the rescue
I'm sweating red
I'm sweating red
I'm red
I'm sweating red
I'm sweating red, red, red
I'm sweating red
I'm sweating red
I'm red
I'm sweating red
I'm sweating red, red, red
The sky comes unglued
It falls to the earth as my answer
It's so far from rain
But life will feel pain
As it singes their skin
But for you, I will see
Cuz finally I am free to never breathe again
My body lives through the ground I was rooted in
I pass the spark as it reaches to the rest of them
WE ARE THE LIONS
WE STAY, WHEN ALL ELSE DESERTED
'CUZ WE WERE BORN TO FIGHT, AND FIGHT, AND FIGHT!
WE ARE THE LIONS
WE STAY, WHEN ALL ELSE DESERTED
'CUZ WE WERE BORN TO FIGHT, AND FIGHT, AND FIGHT!
Ignite, ignite, ignite the world
Ignite, ignite, ignite the world
Ignite the world and let it burn

At the beginning of this album, the man (the protagonist of the first half of this concept album), is losing his faith in Endseeker because God defeats Satan and then vanishes. Throughout the progression of the album, the daughter has found her Faith as her father has lost his.
Though the second half of the album is a struggle and a journey for the daughter to find her faith, this is the culmination of everything for her. She is confident and assured of her identity as one of God's children. She is now waiting for the second coming of God and is ready to be called to Heaven.
"I see you, tattered and bruised You're the only ones who remain true I hear your call, through the thick of it all You've waited so long for the rescue"
~To me it seems as though a lot of clean vocals (Shane's voice) throughout songs that also have screaming in them are intended to be God speaking to the person, or to the people, and Micah's harsh vocals are spoken from the protagonists of the song (ex: Charlatan's Song, Reveries of Flight, and more songs if you look for them). God knows that His children have been waiting for His second coming, and the true believers are those who have stood firm, The Children of Fire.
"And what this sin feels like having on my skin Cuz finally I am free to never breathe again My body lives through the ground I was rooted in I pass the spark as it reaches to the rest of them"
The daughter has been taken by God and has now seen what is like to be pure of Earthly sin and the trouble that mortal life brings. She is now eternal and one with the ground she was rooted in, and is a a part of God's eternal reward, Heaven.
*This is just my take on it, I can't speak for Micah and Shane, but I like to think this is their idea. They write great poetry with their music. Hope this helped anyone :)
you pretty much answered that to a T. thank you

Could be about Shadrach Meshech and abednego coming through the fire unharmed and Daniel being a lion when the lion's refuse to eat him in the den.
