When you are old enough to read this words
Their meaning will unfold
These words are all that's left
And though we've never meet, my only son, I hope you know
That I would have been there to watch you growBut my call was heard and I did go
Now your mission lies ahead of you
As it did mine so long ago
To help the helpless ones who all look up to you
And to defend them to the endDefender
Ride like the wind
Fight proud, my son
You're the defender

I look up to you and heed thy call
This letter ends my search
I'll live your dream now passed on to me
And I now wait to shake the hand of fate
Like the dusk awaiting dawnSo wizards cast your spell
With no heart to do me well
So it is written, it shall be, yeahDefender
