Gold and glory, they came for our crown
Invaders in armor, tearing us down
We were gods, they called us heathens
Now we’re dead, buried beneath them
From the mountains to the desert plains
They came with fire, they came with chains
Our empire, rich with history and pride
Crushed beneath the boot, nowhere to hide
We were gods, they called us heathens
Now we’re dead, buried beneath them
Inca Empire’s annihilation, blood-soaked nation.
They took our world, with greed’s temptation.
Betrayed by the cross, slaughtered in the name,
We fought for our gods, but it was all in vain.
Sacred temples desecrated with fire
Our kingdom burned in their sick desire
The Inca gods wept from the sky
As the Spanish bastards watched us die
We were gods, they called us heathens
Now we’re dead, buried beneath them
We were not savages, we were kings
Until the dogs came and clipped our wings
In their name, we were forced to bow
But our spirit’s alive, we’re screaming now
In the end, they’ll remember the fall
But they can’t kill the spirit, can’t kill it all
Inca Empire, now lost in the dust
But we live on, in blood and rust
