Lyrics
As a boy, I dreamt,
Of time when I would be king
Ride the wings to my destined home.
But life beholds,
All the lies, fed to us
By the forcing hands
It unfolds, a life set up to take you down
So my choice, my only choice, was run
Or drown!
I ran for the first thing that came for my eyes,
Sailors they fight for the same thing that I, hold.
In my soul.
They were pirates!
They were pirates!
Cracks of lightning, oh so frightening,
Rips through the skyline, freedom!
You will be, mine!
Now I've grown, with the sea as my home
I earned what's my own,
The gold the mead she makes my throne,
I'm cursed all alone!
Had I known, that this trade,
For the life I made,
Take it back, how could I?
For the path I laid…
I'm forever an eternal Slave
To The Waves!
Under the mast this is where I belong
Holding it dear as I'm singing this song, oh!
Now I know,
We are Pirates!
We are Pirates!
We are Pirates!
Cracks of lightning, oh so frightening,
Rips through the skyline, freedom!
You will be, mine!
FREEDOM! You will be mine!
