The Walk Of Atonement

Trackliste

• 1. The Walk Of Atonement I (03:26)
   copy

  In chains, you suffer
  For the sins when younger
  The years are longer,
  The silence speaks for now
  
  The darkness fades
  The voices wane
  It's time to face the crowd
  
  To face your judgement
  The walk of atonement
  
  So cast your stones you traitors
  I feel the pain no more, no more
  To see your precious faces
  Right from the depths below
  And now you crave for justice
  Well now you fucking have it
  I'm standing here for judgement
  For the walk of atonement
• 2. The Walk Of Atonement II (07:17)
   copy

  Between the trials and tribulations
  I knew my fate before the sentence passed
  My past mistakes were held in high regard
  Such useful tactics for this whole façade
  
  Ridiculed, tortured, publicly shamed
  This whole ordeal, it was, but just a game
  To puff out their chests whilst showing off their might
  The bastards above care not for our own rights
  
  Now is the time to recognise
  Now is the time to rectify
  
  Witness me walk these crowded streets
  Stripped to the bone with nothing to fear
  The lack of shame as the bell rings
  Pity me now as I plan within
  This fire burns inside my heart
  Directly transferred underground
  For you win this battle, but I plan for war
  The sparrow, so high, I feel pain no more
  
  Revenge is sweet, when it takes its time
  This mutual feeling, to jeopardise
  Overthrowing tyrants is justified
  Return to the slums, it's my time to rise
  
  Vilified, slandered, sent to my grave
  This whole ordeal, it was, but just a game
  So flex all your strength, one final time
  Make a martyr of me, I'll be the sacrifice
  
  Now is the time to recognise
  So I take this pledge, my pride on the line
  I'll take this fight, I'll take this fight
  
  I'm mustering my strength
  The hatred of this place
  Look at these fools believing I am to blame
  Just pawns for the elite
  Cattle who crave for meat
  A mental craze surpassing insanity
  
  Tell me
  What's your motive?
  Ask me
  What's my reason?
  I hold more substance than you could ever dream
  Tell me
  What's your purpose?
  Ask me
  What’s my aim?
  I hold more power than you could ever see
  
  Let's take it back to the start
  You plotted a Coup D'etat
  Betrayed by my own inane
  Imprisoned by your disdain
  
  You have the keys to the entire kingdom
  Yet you don't know how to fucking rule
  Now is the time for a pure revolution
  When you finally lose your fucking crown
  Go.
  
  The city, now in panic
  The chaos suffocates
  You thought you could make an example of me
  The plebeian towns will riot
  Patricians cowering
  Booking their tickets fleeing well overseas
  
  Tell me
  What's your motive?
  Ask me
  What's my reason?
  I hold more substance than you could ever dream
  Tell me
  What's your purpose?
  Ask me
  What’s my aim?
  I hold more power than you could ever see
  
  So cast your stones you traitors
  I feel the pain no more, no more
  To see your precious faces
  Right from the depths below
  And now you crave for justice
  Well now you fucking have it
  I'm standing here for judgement
  For the walk of atonement
  For the walk of atonement
  
  For we shall rise
  From the slums that you carved from these streets
  For we shall rise
  To the towers that you now retreat
  For we shall rise
  
  In darkest hours
  We blaze the night
  Forsaken powers
  I claim the right
  
  Witness me walk these crowded streets
  Stripped to the bone with nothing to fear
  The lack of shame as the bell rings
  Pity me now as I plan within
  This fire burns inside my heart
  Directly transferred underground
  For you win this battle, but I plan for war
  The sparrow, so high, I feel pain no more
• 3. The Walk Of Atonement III (05:07)
   copy

  Towards the triumph of all ages
  I'll burn this city to the ground
  Send forth the warning to all nations
  The death to all who wear the crown
  The death to all who wear the crown
• 4. The Walk Of Atonement IV (07:13)
   copy

  I am king
  
  Behead the traitors and scum
  The battle was won
  Toss their heads onto the top of a pike
  Watching them rot
  For years to come
  Treason will never be punished so light
  
  This insurrection summoned
  A year within my dungeon
  
  As I'm watching your burning corpse collapsing to the floor
  It is such a pleasure that my memory will engrain
  As I'm watching your burning corpse collapsing to the floor
  It is such a pleasure that my memory will engrain
  
  Preparing the walk of atonement
  Challenging the walk of atonement
  Conquering the walk of atonement
  Capturing the walk of atonement
  
  In chains I suffered,
  I feel the pain no more, no more
  To see your precious faces
  Sent to the depths below
  
  In chains I suffered
  I feel the pain no more, no more
  To see your precious faces
  Sent to the depths below
  
  So now we wait for my first decree
  The cleansing of this nation from its tyranny
  Destroy the throne and all its duties
  I long for the mountains, that's where you'll find me
  No more corrupt ideologies
  Power to the people
  Power to the free
  Eradicate the oligarchies
  Given to the people granted liberty
  
  Now is the time to recognise
  Now is the time to rectify
  
  Witness me walk these crowded streets,
  Stripped to the bone with nothing to fear
  The lack of shame as the bell rings
  Pity me now as I plan within
  This fire burns inside my heart
  Directly transferred underground
  
  For I've won this battle, I am the victor of this civil war
  I am the king
  I am the king
  I am the king again once more
