The Essence of Ashes Lyrics

The Essence of Ashes

And it came to pass
In those leaden days
That a plain, poor man got sick of his yoke
Of condemned soil
And a foreign empires hungry purse
Time to replace
Pitchfork with sword
And sound the anthem

Of sheer rebellion

ENOUGH!!!
ONCE TO OFTEN!!!
ENOUGH IS ENOUGH!!!

We strive not for war
We just crave to have our home
We just seek to have the rights
That our fathers used to have
But we tasted the crime and blood
We tasted the essence of ASHES

A glowing spark
Rising up from blasing flames
To lead the forlorn and wroth
The epitome of hope and freedom
A daring venture
A frenetic attemptwhen Amanduswas slain
The bagaudae still sang
