Story Behind The Song

The song actually began as an instrumental in 7/8 and alternating with 4/4 common time but I eventually started hearing lyrics one day. I decided I wanted a positive message although the first thing I heard sounded like lyrics about battle. The chorus 'Come and storm the Rampart' I took and made it all a positive message which I give in large part to Rush and Neil Peart's lyrical content.

Song Description

This song is about making those changes within side oneself that lead to a better existence and making changes in the world which actually begin inside oneself.

Lyrics

When you look deep within
that place in your mind
You will find there is a place
No one knows that's truly sublime

It's a place where you can be at peace
and have full control.
Full control of all the things
and all your dreams,
and every thing you ever want to be

for once in your life it's in reach.
To be at peace,
You have control.
You have full control.

So come to join the Vanguard
and take the helm with me.
We can storm the rampart
into victory.

We can forge a way
and take it to the lead.
When you see it in yourself
You'll find your destiny.

Come and join the Vanguard
and take the helm with me.
We must storm the ramparts
that lead to victory.

Life can change and move real fast.
Now you've got to stay in stride-
and No one else.

Cause a change only comes
when you know and you realize,
You know you have your freewill to see inside.

And all the things and all your dreams
and every thing you ever want to be.
Just take your red pill and wash it down.
and be the change...

So come to join the Vanguard
and take the helm with me.
We can storm the rampart
into victory.

We can forge a way
and take it to the lead.
When you see it in yourself
You'll find your destiny.

Come and join the Vanguard
and take the helm with me.
We must storm the ramparts
that lead to victory.
