Humankind will never stop To wipe the other out Despite both other, and unity mentioned, There is nothing to point out And no truth to shout They have listened With eager ears And continue to shed blood and rape The builders build, the elders say The renegades filled, the youth decay The youth rise up, the elders decay And all go mad anyway And what was built in a thousand years is burned in a second of flame The man who says to stop fighting is simply killed And all others are silenced But this man says to never be silenced For it is what we’ve truly willed If only the statesman, had not interrupted And written the news, that we have seen, while he sees it as extinguishing dew, and a way to interrupt him clean But only when he’s eaten alive
2nd:
There is no pride in the motherland,
For the people have gone mad
There is no pride in land or sand
Or the intoxicating bands
The mad sultan has ruled with terror
And an iron fist
And I watch with horror
As he carries out his list
There is no pride in the motherland
Which once was great
But now the sultan wants to return
Even further back
My stomach churns
My people are sacked
And the buffoons have filled their place
There is no pride in the motherland
But there is pride in feeling none
And saying so with resolve
