countess - a poet's parry lyrics

Loading...

i am a poet like my father was
and his father and his before him
loyal to the gods for generations
who gave prosperity and revelations

now you come from a distance great
to bring to us your vile creed
but our faith is strong and true
for your one god we have no need

since the dawn of time and man
our gods have always stood with us
protection and insight they did give
they made our lives worth to live

you claim your god is the only one
and ours nought but demons are
yet by what right do you interfere?
why have you come from away so far?

listen to a poet’s parry
i denounce your every lie
for freedom i my blood will shed
for my gods shall i gladly die

i sing for my gods like my father
and his father and his before him
inspiration their most holy gift
between us you shall cause no rift
you say we need to be baptized
for access to your heaven to gain
but why would we want to go there?
we go to the hall of the slain

your ludicrous tales do not impress
we but laugh at your ‘original sin’
if truly your god all does rule
why does he need you as his tool?

you view us as simple barbarians
who eagerly your salvation await
but priest heed my warning words
we shall not abandon gods so great

listen to a poet’s parry
i denounce your every lie
for freedom i my blood will shed
for my gods shall i gladly die

i call to my gods as my father did
and his father and his before him
upon you be the thunderer’s rage
you will no trap us in your moral cage

your scripture means nothing to us
we have verses of real wisdom divine
listen to the song of the high one
words in which true insight does shine
and yet the future i did glimpse
i saw many churches of your christ
upon our temples’ shattered remains
my people bound by your foul chains

centuries the age of tears will last
yet your hollow victory will not endure
hidden in our blood our gods survive
‘neath the surface our hearts stay pure

listen to a poet’s parry
i denounce your every lie
for freedom i my blood will shed
for my gods shall i gladly die

as i lay dying i see our temples burn
but know beyond doubt our gods shall return
