Usurpers of our legacy - Waylander

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
