"Recommended for one life, or choose to be condemned. Chosen to be the one for their care, sworn to stay on this path and follow one way.
Louder than thunder!
When they pass our mounds, or cross our lands, and fiercer than the wind and rain, when they come to claim.
Settle down you seekers of war, go ahead seek them and soar, settle down you seekers of war, go ahead seek them and soar, settle down you seekers of war.
(I know we’ll break free, from this strife that’s set forth, and begin our sovereign lives, and begin our sovereign life,) they claim that we’re far too late, that we all must accept our fate, but we'll prove their words wrong, and begin our sovereign life.
But the sight of them following him, has lead me to this deathly stare, that’s pushed me far astray.
Defend yourself now, you may not survive, but stand brave, hold the line and stay alive.
GO!
Be the first to bite them in the back, may the second end their attack, and with the third, turn their hate envy upon thee, send up their spirits!
Settle down you seekers of war, go ahead seek them and soar, settle down you seekers of war, go ahead seek them and soar, settle down you seekers of war.
(I know we’ll break free, from this strife that’s set forth, and begin our sovereign lives, and begin our sovereign life,) they claim that we’re far too late, that we all must accept our fate, but we'll prove their words wrong, and begin our sovereign life.
Now as I lay them down to sleep, I pray the lord their soul to keep. Thy seekers watch me through the night, and hunt me down till mornings light. If I should die before this act, blessed the lord my soul to object."
