"His Father's Son" lyrics

"His Father's Son"

A noble sailed across the sea to search a distant land
A new frontier before him to provide an upperhand
Mysterious agendas lay behind a graceful guise
A son was born, begotten, shorn, betrayed to noble lies

I take to the water to glide upon the gales
The winds that my father rode will never fill my sails

The sailors on the salty sea - my brothers I will lead
Our cannons, fast they burn and blast, our blood is of the Creed
A father lost to hunger, the temptation of control
No sentiment you represent can tame my savage soul

I take to the water to glide upon the gales
The winds that my father rode will never fill my sails

You're going to war...
You're going to war...
You're going to war...
You're going to war...

Musket guns and silver slivers
Justice runs in crimson rivers
Words of ancient truth we follow
Bleed these veins into tomorrow

I take to the water to glide upon the gales
The winds that my father rode will never fill my sails

The sailors on the salty sea (I take to the water) - my brothers I will lead
Our cannons, fast they burn and blast (To glide upon the gales), our blood is of the Creed
A father lost to hunger (The winds that my father rode), the temptation of control
No sentiment you represent (Will never fill my sails) can tame my savage soul
