Sapphire Guide Us To Our Dawn
SAPPHIRE!
In this time full of lies, we can only roam
SAPPHIRE!
You know where the truth lies, you can lead us home
A threatening night is falling on our blue world like a veil
-smothering our future
Leadership and guts will get our flying fists to this brawl,
-so step up!
SAPPHIRE!
Smashing through hateful words, with your blinding speed
SAPPHIRE!
Beating down aggressors, when they don't take heed
Family and friends stand with you to the end in unity
-resolute through trials
Piercing through a wall of overwhelming rage with the strength
-of your calm!
Fighting with the Crystal Gems to make a safe world
-love and peace and joy as your goal
To lawless rogues, be justice incarnate!
Midnight only lasts until the day can break through,
-brimming with our hopes and dreams
Sapphire, guide us to our dawn
SAPPHIRE!
When there's no turning back, and the road is rough
SAPPHIRE!
You split your grit with us, 'til we're brave enough
When the moon of fear rises the stars of hope glow and shimmer
-lighting a path throughout time
Kick your way to daybreak, wade through gloom alongside Ruby,
-bringing light!
Fighting with the Crystal Gems to make a safe world
-love and peace and joy as your goal
To lawless rogues, be justice incarnate!
Midnight only lasts until the day can break through,
-brimming with our hopes and dreams
Sapphire, guide us to our dawn

(I based my version of Sapphire in Ruby vs Jasper on this show, so it felt right to filk it as well. I also have one called PEARL WA SHOCK, which is more or less the same idea but specific to Pearl. ...The joke is that it's hard to imagine the two most courtly Gems in the show as wasteland martial artists.)
