Lyrics
Ancestors
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Faces shine with a thousand eyes
Indoctrination, repulsive lies
Refuse to serve, reject it all
Run away from selfish minds
You can't face your own conviction
Pride sacrificed
We only save ourselves
While others live in hell
You can't see what greed is
You mock the ancient ones
You speak to me through the grave
The dagger in the devil's hand
Force your culture down my throat
Like a preacher selling souls
Disillusion, compromise
Fuck your lies
We only save ourselves
While others live in hell
You can't see what greed is
You mock the ancient ones
You crucified your father's son
Forced the crucifix
Ancient flame, speak my name
Call our spirits threats
Ancestors
You crucified your father's son
Forced the crucifix
Ancient flame, speak my name
Call our spirits threats
