"Black Flag Rising Resynced" lyrics
JT Music Lyrics
Upon the horizon
In the dwindling light
A black flag is risin'
And with it the night
Crimson are the sands
Twin guns in his hands
Hidden blades up his sleeve
Cheap rum on his breath
He runs from the past
But the captain keeps on lookin' back
These scars aren't his last
Long as his flag is the one that is black
What becomes of a man
Raised by the tide without love for the land
No scum of the earth ever halted his plans
There'll be dust when he's done with 'em none, will there stand
For he's a plundering lover of violence
Born into nothing and bred in the silence
With blood ever blessed
A brand on his heart is the Brotherhood's crest
Sent from the sky, a tempest of blades
Straight for your neck like they're Dracula fangs
Storms in his eyes, thunderous rage
Thrust on the high seas, humblin' the waves
Ready your muskets, sharpen your knives
Gather the rum to protect with your lives
Cannons ignited, all eyes on the mark
As our true colors shine, let us light up the dark
The black flag is rising
His path, retribution
He walks among pirates, his virtue is silence
His craft is illusion
Just an illusion
He's just an illusion
Watch his status climb, like an acrobat
The captain thrives at heights in his habitat
Sea or sky, he'll fly with the wind at his back
The Jackdaw catches drafts like a cask was tapped
With the stack of maps, we're not strapped for cache
And if you have to ask, don't even ask for half
Upon the dawn, you'll see our shadow cast
Like a black spot we'll stop your hearts - Avast!
We're the deniers of empires, keepers of secrets unknown
Whatever we set will catch fire - ready to reap what you sown?
Those who wage war on Kenway
We'll learn his next step is always checkmate
Let Edward teach you how to cheat death
And after you bleed for the Creed you'll get paid
Unattended rum will get drank
He'll take your wife home, and break your bedframe
His foes only get laid on the deck, flayed
With no quarter - overboard with deck weight
The black flag is rising
His path, retribution
He walks among pirates, his virtue is silence
His craft is illusion
Just an illusion
He's just an illusion
Under the burning sun, you can feel winter's breath
Was it a whisper of fate or just a voice in your head
You wake marooned on a shore, bordered by oceans of red
And in this locker, your debts are put to rest
The black flag is rising
His path, retribution
He walks among pirates, his virtue is silence
His craft is illusion (Just an illusion, He's just an illusion)
In the dwindling light
A black flag is risin'
And with it the night
Crimson are the sands
Twin guns in his hands
Hidden blades up his sleeve
Cheap rum on his breath
He runs from the past
But the captain keeps on lookin' back
These scars aren't his last
Long as his flag is the one that is black
What becomes of a man
Raised by the tide without love for the land
No scum of the earth ever halted his plans
There'll be dust when he's done with 'em none, will there stand
For he's a plundering lover of violence
Born into nothing and bred in the silence
With blood ever blessed
A brand on his heart is the Brotherhood's crest
Sent from the sky, a tempest of blades
Straight for your neck like they're Dracula fangs
Storms in his eyes, thunderous rage
Thrust on the high seas, humblin' the waves
Ready your muskets, sharpen your knives
Gather the rum to protect with your lives
Cannons ignited, all eyes on the mark
As our true colors shine, let us light up the dark
The black flag is rising

He walks among pirates, his virtue is silence
His craft is illusion
