Rebellion
Album • 2012
Strong he was and great in fame People came to hail his name Once again they travel wide To walk the last time by his side Germania she still is free She owes it to his victories The Roman Varus he did beat Germanicus he saw retreat Gone he is gone All that lives comes to end So now just Rest in Peace Gone he is gone A poison you can't defend So now just Rest in Peace A people strong to rule their land United under his own hand But some are here who cry today Bus lost belief along the way Adgandaster the Chatti lord He fed him poison 'cause he feared the sword A deed by traitor done Who lives on like a wayward son.

The legions are marching Pannonia burns On the edge of the battle We wait and I learn The cruel art of warfare To wait till it's right To jump our horses The battle to decide 500 Barbarians I rule Ala Germanica Into battle ride For glory and for victory Side by side Ala Germanica Arminius lead us on Defeating Pannonia In the name of Rome The thick of the battle Like the edge of a blade Receive now my orders I must no longer wait We ride under screams A maelstrom from hell to kill where we hit or to die where one fell Ego Imperator Caesar Divi filius Augustus, te, Arminii, ductorem popularium, pro meritis in bellum Pannonicum ingentissimis tuis ordinem equestrem transduco

Like ghosts arising From my childhood memory I see the horned one Initiation just for me I see them dancing Around a fire black and lean Remember jumping Over the fire to get clean More and more I feel the memories rise Like the dusk awaiting dawn I have been too long Serving foreign masters, fighting far away from home Like the dusk awaiting dawn I feel the urge so strong To stroll and rest under the tall trees of my home Tall and mighty The Seeress stood in front of me She shook in blind trance And her wild herbs set me free I saw the leader Descending from Walhalla's gate Leading his people Into a prosperous fate

The legions are marching Roman Rules - Roman Lords Roman taxes - Roman swords Free Men - No more Subdued - Roman Law I see the cattle taken With the winter at hand Just to feed the soldiers That rule the land Forts standing strong All the trees are gone Heads bow to fate And deep inside - I breed hate Across Thenus up Lupia we rode Full of joy to return home I can't wait Looking for a prosperous fate I see warriors without pride Women stealing out of sight Blunt and rusty is the blade Just numb eyes breeding hate No more children on the street Just a dog barks in retreat I see not a prosperous fate Just numb eyes breeding hate Young men - Taken slaves To serve - Roman grace Women raped - As pleased To serve - Soldier's need I see Segestes smiling As a friend of Rome I see his riches growing And his work well done I am a Roman knight Should be a friend of Rome What I've seen of late Deep inside - I breed hate

Now what I do find Is not what I had in mind A prosperous fate I don't see And that is angering me My people live like a slave My father careful not brave To Rome taxes we pay Starve in the winter we may Veleda once she said Just otherwise I do remember I see To her I'll ride to the Bructeri And the Seeress shall answer me Explain my fate to me High above the Seeress tower Floating on the wings of a dream Take my hand oh Veleda hold me Nothing is as it seemed A prosperous fate means not Rome There is a deed to be done There is a battle of fight A people left to unite I must choose where I stand To whom I lend my hand It seems like treason to me But we need to be free Explain my fate for me Freyr rules in ecstasy My fate now I clearly see At the Allthing Veleda speak for me Give to my people the faith to be free

Like all the years before Roman legions cross our land Like all the years before They feed their soldiers off our hand Varus Varus New governor of Germania Sworn to force Roman law Upon a people free so far Oh Varus, a friend of mine you are Oh Varus, but this has gone too far I will not see my people live as slaves I will not Oh Varus, you don't know who we are Not in all those years before Was the rule enforced with an iron fist Never in those years before Were we tread upon until the ground we kissed Varus Varus Bitter enemies you've made of friends Sworn to a full revenge For humiliation suffered by your hand
Chatti- Bructeri and Marsi have come To meet secretly with Segimer's son Cherusci, Angrivarii, German tribes to strong To fight all united together as one Brothers, raise your swords The tribes all united United as one The force we could muster The deeds to be done The tribes all united United as one With an iron fist and a sword in hand To crush the power of Rome Welcome Segestes, ally to Rome I took your daughter for a wife so please feel at home I dine with Varus, know what's on his mind Germania as a province, oh you cannot be so blind Segestes, raise your sword

Hear the sizzling from a serpent's tongue They won't believe you so in vain you come To warn the Romans of an ambush you must Too blind they are me Arminius they trust Segestes Don't you know there's a deed to be done? Fate is sealed, we will fight, not run Let's speak through javelins, spathas, and shields Wait in the brushwood never to yield We are sworn to make it an end Segestes Don't you know there's a deed to be done? Fate is sealed, we will fight, not run Don't you see the warning Written on the walls Released, the ghost of freedom Let repression take its toll A voice that stirs within us Never to be choked again The ghost of freedom We raid their towers on our lands at night Retrieve the powers back on our side You say we are lost, but I say let them come Don't you know there's a deed to be done? Fate is sealed, we will fight, not run Let them come Welcome to our forest Our holy groves It's time to show true colors Feel the oaks reach for your soul The breath of our Gods on the wind The holy earth beneath your feet The ghost of freedom It's time to let all hell break loose Time to die

Through mud and through rain our legions drag on They fall on us like demons, they hit and they run Attack out of darkness, spreading death and despair They cut through our rows, an ambush beware Varus - look what you've done No way to turn back now no chance to head on Trapped - in swamp and in rain Like phantoms they rise Leaving corpses and pain Oh Varus see your forces are bleeding No escape from the Teutonic Wrath Oh Varus see your pride was misleading In the storm and the everlasting rain No escape from the Teutonic Wrath Leave the civilians from our baggage to their fate Get out of this trap before it's too late There is nowhere to run, we just can't make a stand Our legion is butchered as it gets out of hand

The time has come we will send Your legions doomed to meet their end There's no way out, nowhere to run Our triumph blossoms in the sun The ground turned red, by Roman blood Your leaders died by their own sword A warning for all time Don't set your flag on our land, we'll never kneel Defeated by barbarian tribes, now does it feel Your pried and joy lie shattered at our feet At Teutoburg ground - Vae Victis - Where empires bleed See me now, first of my tribe As destiny is on my side Fight for freedom, Cherusci rise Gaze right into your enemies' eyes We built a wall to hold them back The Romans face our last attack Here where it shall end At Teutoburg grounds Sacrificed in our holy groves Remains preserved in itme Your empire bleeds At Teutoburg grounds Augustus

As I sit here I see thee as we were young Like brothers, best friends We'd see it through whatever come Worn and tired I am Feel the weight of all those years The weight of years Wish you could be with me now Wish you could be with me now But this is just a Requiem But this is just a Requiem But this is just a Requiem For the Fallen For the Fallen For the Fallen A Requiem for the Fallen Oh that battle All the freedom, glory and gold I never saw them But you died young and I live old Wouldn't you have liked to live To see your children die in the wars to come Would you not have liked to live To see your sacrifice undone But this is just a Requiem But this is just a Requiem But this is just a Requiem For the Fallen For the Fallen For the Fallen A Requiem for the Fallen A Requiem for the Fallen A Requiem for the Fallen
