Illuminate the Rebellion: Unveiling a World in Flames
Lyrics
As fire burns the sky the weak are crying out
Symbolic imagery of turmoil and chaos, with the powerless expressing their distress.
Their wells are running dry and they've finally had enough
Highlighting the scarcity of resources and the growing discontent among the oppressed.
They can see the blood-stained hands of power
Observation of the corrupt and oppressive nature of those in power, stained by the consequences of their actions.
There will be war
Prediction or acknowledgment of an impending conflict or struggle.
The ones in need beg to no avail
Depicting the desperation of those in need, futilely pleading for help.
The wealthy bathe in gold, drinking life from the pale

Who will you blame when all of this is drained?
Raising a question about accountability and responsibility for the depletion of resources.
There will be war

Destroyed our homes, withered our bones, lead us astray

Life is in ruins, they don't give a shit
Conveying the bleak state of life and the apathy of those responsible.
We're rising up, growing strong, taking back what's ours

They have the water and the oil, and they will prevail

We are the ones who suffer while they reap the spoils

We must dethrone and change the currents of the powers that control the world
