Its structure is set as a verse with a chorus afterwards – an 'A-B-C-B-D-B-E-B' pattern.

Lyrics
These are the lyrics of For The Foundation:
Verse 1:
Once in the Western-march, a new Foundation stated:Southly of the parch, a Haven is created.
Chorus:
For the Foundation, the great Foundation;The Bridge Base Foundation, which offers salvation!
Verse 2:
The Haven thrives, from stuff it refinds;A felon's dive, is followed by a rise.
Chorus:
For the Foundation, the great Foundation;The Bridge Base Foundation, which offers salvation!
Verse 3:
When the Haven's dark, with once-great crumbled walls;The Foundation retards, but it never truly falls.
Chorus:
For the Foundation, the great Foundation;The Bridge Base Foundation, which offers salvation!
Verse 4:
Through the harsh weather, through all the fell crises;Bridge Base forever, give haste to the Foundation.
Chorus:
For the Foundation, the great Foundation;The Bridge Base Foundation, which offers salvation!
