Green Stars (Intro)

[Spoken Word: Matt Martians]

Climb into the stars

Is all it took for me to realize

Where we belong

After Voyager my life came crashing down

I was in a situation where I didn't know where my life was

Or where my life was going

I got an invitation to climb into the stars

By an old friend of mine

I took that invitation

He took me to the 5th Echelon

This is where I discovered happiness for the first time

I started to see everything clear, through jaded eyes

But as I was elevated I realized that my path is music

And that I had to influence the world

See, the 5th Echelon, it's not just your average place

It's a place where you're allowed to explore your mind freely

Explore those inner emotions that you try so hard to hold in

It makes you realize that all you need is yourself

And if you have yourself then nobody can stop you

The 5th Echelon is not a place for everybody

Some don't understand it, some disagree

But one thing we can all agree on is it never harmed anybody before

Maybe one day mankind will understand

The things while we're here can't hurt us

And what we make will

And when we destroy our world, we will be to blame

Who knows, maybe the world will change

And I won't have to explore the 5th Echelon every night in my room

So long
