"Mercenary" lyrics

"Mercenary"

We come from above
Fueled by the hatred fed to us since we were born
We're standing alone
Mask of dishonour covering up the scars we hold

Within our walls divided by the lines we're drawing
We wish for hope and reach for the sky
The echoes build a wave of silence
Drowning all the words we want to say

Do you dare to bleed for your belief
To turn away from vanity
Standing by your creed
Covering our eyes we cannot see
While we betray our legacy
Crowning vultures into kings

We carry the fate
Bound to the ones who fell in the shadow of your grace
Enforcer of hate
Sent generations into the mouth of disarray

Do you dare to bleed for your belief
To turn away from vanity
Standing by your creed
Covering our eyes we cannot see
While we betray our legacy
Crowning vultures into kings
Crowning vultures into kings

Do you dare to bleed for your belief
To turn away from vanity
Standing by your creed
Covering our eyes we cannot see
While we betray our legacy
Crowning vultures into kings

Will we ever find a way
To never forget, to never forget
Crowning vultures into kings
Will we ever find a way
To never forget, to never forget
Crowning vultures into kings
Crowning vultures into kings
