The conqueror's blood-soaked pen,
It spins its web of crimson lies.
Retelling a hero's tale,
Through the villain's eyes.
Forgotten names and no one knows
That the real hero dies.
Not only is history
Written by the victor,
The pages of the book (the book)
Are inked in the blood (the blood)
Of the defeated.
While might may not always make right
It can grant you control of the light
Not only is history
Written by the victor,
The pages of the book (the book)
Are inked in the blood (the blood)
Of the defeated.
If history is written by the victor
Then when facing defeat
Make no mistake, I will
Sever every tongue,
Cut off every hand,
Your legacy,
It dies with me.
Narration mutilated.
Deception fabricated.
Who will tell your story,
When you're dead?
I'll cut out every tongue,
Sever every hand,
Your legacy,
It dies.
Dies with me.
