I agree with you. Although, It would make more sense if that title was used if Corrin picks the Revelations route and not the others. Or if we consider the Revelations route canon, since the fact that Corrin can still pick one nation over the other still exists, painting him as "white" or "black".

Notes: 1. The first verse of the song is about Hoshido (Birthright) while the second one is about Nohr (Conquest). 2.Some of the lyrics are chapter titles of both Fire Emblem Fates games. 3. AmaLee's cover in this video is based directly on the Japanese version of this song. Different from the original one made by Rena Strober and Renka but she (AmaLee) also cover that one too. Overall: 1000 thumbs up for you. Nicely done, AmaLee.

[@joelsasmad]

I like "you are an ocean of waves" as the statement reflects more the idea that your choices and will are what shapes the future of the world. Also this song is just straight up fantastic even if the game it is based on has issues.

[@cyber0198]

I really like how formal and ancient the lyrics sound in this cover, especially given the background of the song in the games. It was written at the time to quell the ancient draconic beasts that plagued the land, and I don't feel like that the in-game lyrics convey that emotion. This version is also just a lot prettier with its haunting harmonies and the mixing. Your voices really suit this song well ^_^ Edit: while this version of the song may not be accurate to the story, i feel as if it is more accurate to the in-game mythology and lore that surrounds the song. In the setting, the song was never truly intended as a prophecy; it was intended as a prayer.

[@romanbarrera33]

Christopher J. Sounds I enjoyed the song in the actual game as well as here too. To me they don't sound the same but at least you can enjoy both as well as how the soundtrack sounds in the Smash Bros 3DS and Wii U.

[@starlette7820]

I'm not sure I agree with you, because the ingame lyrics were also meant to foreshadow what was to come later on in the games plot, but most fan-written lyrics I hear completely destroy that part of the song. Including this one.

[@yilvoxe4017]

Starlette Are you listening to the same song as I am? Not only was the original song terrible with meter and translation, Rena's voice just didn't suit the song at all. This version has the necessary impact in instrumentation and yes, the lyrics DO foreshadow the story, they just don't smack you in the face with all but direct spoilers. There's supposed to be nuance.

[@Liamiamail]

I agree with Christopher 100%, couldn't have said it better.

[@amburprice8479]

Yilvoxe I love this song, and the lyrics are super great, but unfortunately, they kind of ruin part of the songs original meaning SPOILERS By using words such as “we” and “our” she is completely shattering the whole idea that this song is supposed to be in Anakos’ point of view. I know that the song was written before the game came out, but it makes it so the official lyrics (and a few other fan lyrics) are better in my eyes.

I really love all the work you poured into these lyrics and improving over the original English ones! In original, it said, 'Sing.....with me, a song, of birthrights and love.' AmaLee changed it to: 'Join in our prayer, in our song, of birthrights and love'. The original ones had an awkward amount of time in the words 'sing....with me' and you found a way to make it much smoother! Amazing attention to detail and love this version over the original.

[@MHChang2014]

That's the problem with many of these japanese songs translated to English. The timing can be thrown off by translators adding extra syllables/subtracting so that it works to the melody of the music. That was the issue I had with Fates main theme is that it sounded way too obviously like a song that had been translated to English

[@onewingedren2228]

Honestly i like "Sing with me a song of Conquest & Fate" more but the Hoshido verse sounds better here

[@onewingedren2228]

@@MHChang2014 English isn't my first language but i don't like "Withe as a bone" and "hard as a stone" part, this sounded so much like "omg we need something to fit the timing" and i think that a lot of other words would sound better and less gibberish than these Other than that i love Lost in Thoughts All Alone English Version and i think that they did a nice job in making such a hard song to adapt sound good while still kept the symbolism with the storyline of Fates just like the original but in a diferent way

SO EXCITED TO SHARE THIS! I've been so obsessed with Fire Emblem Fates recently, you have no idea! If you have a 3DS and haven't played it, I HIGHLY recommend: You can get a copy here: goo.gl/S1VbqC // Gonna answer this question first: WHY DID YOU NOT USE THE OFFICIAL ENGLISH LYRICS? -- WELL, I actually started writing this song before the game came out -- so I had no idea what the official English dub lyrics would be (especially for the Nohr path), but I really wanted to give this song my own twist, so I decided to make my own English lyrics based off of the translation (also the official dub didn't dub the entire song, so I was going to have to fill in some blanks anyway!) There are some lines I decided to use from the official dub though, since I thought they fit quite nicely~ I hope no one is too terribly upset by this decision, but I hope you can enjoy this version none the less! :) ALSO as you can see, this is the 2nd video in a row using animation and commissioned illustrations!

As well as Elise and countless others, they did this to achieve true peace and that to me is absolutely beautiful.

You can also translate things into English a million different ways.

This is the most beautiful song I have ever heard, hands down. It combines everything I think is beautiful in a song into one piece. Amanda's voice is godly, and sounds surreal in this piece, and the chordal structure gives it a medieval feel that her voice is honestly perfect for. One adjective I would give the singing here is "angelic", the tone is so pure and the harmony is so clear and well thought out.... When I hear this I am transported to a different world of quests, conquest and lies! Only you can make me forget everything and affect me this much.

GOD DAMNIT WHY DIDNT NINTENDO JUST USE YOUR VOICE?! edit: okay since everybody is pointing this out, the original dub has more polish in terms of acting and suitability for the character itself (comparatively to the original japanese dub, if you want to draw the parallel yourself). I originally thought that this version had more radiance and flair, which in turn made me presume it would be a more suitable dub, since radiance seems to be the most notable aspect of Azura's voice when putting her singing into the context of the story.

+Misha Bird :p well this is the 3rd post but i feel like its appropriate to go here so people can compare Lyrics for all versions leeandlie's and nintendo's time stamp for each start for leeandlie's (yes ik i posted this alot) Birthright lyrics 0:29 leeandlie's version you are an ocean of waves weaving a dream, like thoughts become a river stream yet may the tide ever change, flowing like time,to the path yours to climb thou seek the light with an outstretched hand a divine blade lies before you so command the wake of dreams To restore the world, cut 'way the seams Join in our prayer - in our song- of birthright and love Come the sun, illuminate the sky pray that we may quell the dark light take the throne Lost in thoughts all alone Nintendo's official lyrics Birthright You are the ocean's gray waves, destined to seek Life beyond the shore just out of reach Yet the waters ever change, flowing like time The path is yours to climb In the white light, a hand reaches through A double-edged blade cuts your heart in two Waking dreams fade away, Embrace the brand-new day Sing with me a song of birthrights and love The light scatters to the sky above Dawn breaks through the gloom, white as a bone Lost in thoughts all alone Conquest lyrics 2:16 leeandlie's version you are an ocean of waves weaving a dream, like thoughts become a river stream yet may the tide ever change, flowing like time,to the path - yours to claim thou seek the dark with an unsheathed blade Now a white ivory throne beckons so obtain the fate you sow On this path, be wary friend and foe Join in the tale - in the blight - of conquest and lies Vow that we shall tear the light- Dark seize the throne Lost in thoughts all alone(not sure if the Nohr part ends here so Amanda pls comment if it does so I can fix it) May thy choose path lead the way and grace you with virtue But surely a balance awaits So be it bliss or pain you gain Beyond the route-way's end you gain resilience and weakness The trails - the thorn in your side - become the greatest strength in you Nintendo's official lyrics conquest You are the ocean's gray waves, destined to seek Life beyond the shore just out of reach Yet the waters ever change, flowing like time The path is yours to climb Embrace the dark you call a home, Gaze upon an empty, white throne A legacy of lies, A familiar disguise Sing with me a song of conquest and fate The black pillar cracks beneath its weight Night breaks through the day, hard as a stone Lost in thoughts all alone Revelation lyrics leeandlie's 5:11 Descend into the abyss thou see Where the hearts of many wander Quietly, they wish and weave Placing hope inside their one, pure dream After a storm stills its wake, May all be blessed, so the fate and fallen can rest Your will, the water reflects, so all will know Your hands brought the morrow You are an ocean of waves weaving a dream, like thoughts become a river stream yet may the tide ever change, flowing like time,to the path yours to climb You are an ocean of waves Nintendo's official lyrics Revelation The path you walk on belongs to destiny, just let it flow All of your joy and your pain will fall like the tide, let it flow Life is not just filled with happiness, nor sorrow Even the thorn in your heart, in time it may become a rose A burdened heart sinks into the ground A veil falls away without a sound Not day nor night, wrong nor right For truth and peace you fight Sing with me a song of silence and blood The rain falls, but can't wash away the mud Within my ancient heart dwells madness and pride Can no one hear my cry You are the ocean's gray waves, destined to seek Life beyond the shore, just out of reach Yet the waters ever change, flowing like time The path is yours to climb You are the ocean's gray waves

[@cameronwiscovitch4186]

Minor headcanon, but I like to think that the Birthright and Conquest routes are actually dreams or visions that Corrin/Kamui has during their time in the Nohrian fortress. When they make it to the Hoshidan field where they choose their path to side with, they can either follow the perceived visions and side with Nohr or Hoshido, or use them as a way to form another path (the third route).

The song tells the story for a dragon ( which In FE are practically gods) slowly decending into madness as all dragons do trying to hold onto its sanity

[@pdpgb]

This cover made me play Fire Emblem Fates and get into the series. You kinda get to pick between a "good" and "evil" route so that's why the song's tone and the girl's outfit change between the first and second verse. Then there's the "true" path at the end. It was a good game I recommend it.

[@aidensmith5113]

As I get only months away from adulthood and I fall more and more in love with this cover with every time I listen to it, I think this song is a strong metaphor for life in high school. We are like oceans filled with rough waves and smooth ones that represent our emotions throughout our experience. There are some different outlooks you may have during this stage of life. You can be hopeful and pray that you can get through school to set you on the right path respectfully, albeit nervously (Birthright verse), or you can get confident and vow you will pass in flying colours at all costs, even if you get a bit in over your head (Conquest verse). However, there can be a balance between the two, where we can stay level-headed and balance hope and confidence to stay in a realistic perspective of being a teenager at school (Revelation verse). Any way you look at it, you will go through a whole complicated storm of emotions, but once it’s over and you finally graduate, you shall move onwards with your life, ready to tackle any adult responsibilities and career choices with determination.

[@dragonsmash3r]

+Thomas Fletcher (DragonRider4000) fire emblem in general is a tactics based strategy game with an interesting story. Up until awakening it was just that, every choice mattered and each unit you control can die, permanently. Since awakening, everything kinda changed. Because the ip was losing interest, Nintendo went out with a bang and combined a lot of mechanics from previous games into one of the best fire emblem games of all time, with fates right after the boom... Then there's the shipping. Let's just say that almost any unit can marry another unit, or your guy for that matter. Because of this, and some other stuff that would make this sooooo much longer, you either have to experience it yourself or try your luck with some random blind player. Clear anything up?
