stormfrun – our colors black lyrics

[verse 1]
i was a man with nothing left to lose but my own life
but what’s a life to lose when it’s as hollow as their lies?
the british crown commissioned me to fight their pointless war
but fighting wasn’t quite enough, i wanted something more
after weeks of battle on the seas, a blazing buring h+ll
we fought the evil spaniards and the dirty dutch as well
i naturally requested to become a privateer
and as my wish was granted, i went black and ten could steer

[chorus]
out to sea, to sink the ships of royalty
load ’em guns with hate against the world
out to sea, to follow up on destiny
the time has come to hoist our colors black

[verse 2]
little did the british know i played identity
i became what i was meant to be in the trade of piracy
and soon i had a letter of marque from every royal crown
we plundered towns and looted gold from every ship around
a golden age of riches and games, no one the wiser were
too busy fighting each and one too blind to see the cur
the rise of mighty pirate, no quarter we would give
and as we saw another ship, together we will sing
[chorus]
out to sea, to sink the ships of royalty
load ’em guns with hate against the world
out to sea, to follow up on destiny
the time has come to hoist our colors black

[verse 3]
then one night we came upon a british man o’ war
they hailed us in to speak to us on behalf of port royal
the governor was eager to a share of gold they claim
a hefty share of nine+tenths! to the british royal reign
outraged by the boldest frank and non+negotiable terms
i cut him up, his guts went out! like an open can of worms
the men were shocked and baffled, yes we took them by surprise
the greediness of the king would be his grandest ships demise
time to hoist the jolly roger
time to hoist the colors black

[chorus]
out to sea, to sink the ships of royalty
load ’em guns with hate against the world
out to sea, to follow up on destiny
the time has come to hoist our colors black

[bridge]
though all things of good come to an end someday
we men of fortune surely live the jolly way
’cause the life at sea will be the last we know
we men of fortune show that life is more than gold
[chorus]
out to sea, to sink the ships of royalty
load ’em guns with hate against the world
out to sea, to follow up on destiny
the time has come to hoist our colors black
out to sea, to sink the ships of royalty
(time to hoist the jolly roger, time to hoist the colors black)
load ’em guns with hate against the world
out to sea, to follow up on destiny
(sailing seas [?] raise the silver our attack)
the time has come to hoist our colors black

[outro]
edward teach, john levit, stede bonnett, calico jack
skull and bones, for each his own
hoist the colors, our colors black
edward teach, john levit, stede bonnett, calico jack
skull and bones, for each his own
hoist the colors, our colors black
