Waylander - Usurpers of our legacy

Текст песни

Usurpers Of Our Legacy
With two tongues of silver, honeyed, sweetened with gold
Claim now, compensation, for the lies weýve been sold
The mystery disperses, the myth falls away
Thus, ending the dark days, when the clergy held sway
Hearts and minds of the people
Ensnared long ago
Strangers to the energies
Which no longer flow
With tales of the trinity
Convincingly told
Demeaning our ways
As heathen and bold
The courts of the kings, a pulpit and a stage
Manipulation of a fractious land
Politicise, cast words of doubt
Fan the flames of discontent
Usurpers of our Legacy, Distorting Native lore
Import a creed unnatural onto our Emerald shore
Usurpers of our Legacy, demonising Ancient Gods
Plagiarise our Festivals, Foulest of all frauds
Usurpers of our Legacy, Theyýll never keep us down
Rise up, now is the time, reclaim the Pagan crown
Rise up Pagan sons and daughters
Symbolic swords held to the sky
(With the) Sun God in ascendancy
(We) illuminate hypocrisyý AAAAAriiiiise!
Gatherings don the centuries
In secret groves and vales
Patiently awaiting
Revelations, come the Dawn
Beneath a flag of union
Butchers carved and they cleaved
Carved and they cleaved, they carved, they cleaved
The tongue torn from the Nation
The goddess she grieves, the land it doth bleed
Eiriu she grieves
Eiriu she grieves, the land it doth bleed
Eiriu she grieves
