lyrics

Know your history, and know this ain’t a mystery
The mass killing your people did for centuries on centuries
Take accountability and shoulder this blame
The way I shoulder not only that but I shoulder this pain

All these island devils tryna serpent lurk and bear the fruit
That’s forbidden insurrection and I’m coming with the truth
All this Eldian rebellion how can it run in my bloodline?
I’m on a honorary Marley and will be more in due time



You think you’ll get respect from them by licking their boots?
Honey, haven’t you heard the news? You exist to be used
As a weapon to kill and conquer, soon as you cease to offer
An advantage, Marley’s dragging all Eldians to the slaughter

Why should I be repentant when I murdered none of your friends?
I’m just an innocent person, yet burdened by others’ sins
Ever since the day she saved me, I learned that life’s sacred
The only thing you learned is internalized hatred



I’m one of the good ones I’ll eradicate the bad
They’ll see humanity and effort and know we aren’t that
If it’s sacrifice for peace, take that burden to your grave
I know life is sacred, that’s why I’m filled with all this rage



I rage for Sasha, for my mother who died in vain
For the faceless casualties of your military campaign
You call yourself a good person with hands covered and stained
With the same devil blood that runs in all of our veins?



Yeah?
I rage for Zofia and Udo
You want to talk casualties?
They died for what?
Who knows?


It’s all senseless violence I had nothing to do with
I’ve never taken a life so why should I answer to it?



The bottom line is there’s inherent evil in your veins
No amount of good deeds could ever clear your name



If we share the same blood and we can never atone
Maybe it’s better if the rest of them just left us alone



Bones of fallen empires
Now form our funeral pyres
And dictate that we’re the successors
To take on sins of our ancestors

Bones of fallen empires
Now form our funeral pyres
But instead of letting it fester
We’ll change the sins of our ancestors
