A Day Of Reckoning Songtext
von Blaze Bayley

My ancestors have come alive
In this vision
I see through their eyes
The last survivors, their darkest day
And the story of my tribe
Facing the future, facing the unknown
They carry on, they survive
All they had was courage and hope
And the hate that burned inside

Madness takes many forms
And you think you have seen them all before
Until you′re face to face
With the evil of nine tribes
The murdering of Mozilla's
Frosted into the sea
Although she was still alive
Oh, courage and hate
They will not break
They will return


Mutilating every mother, boy and babe
Left them to bleed, to bleed to death
As daughters are taken for slaves
All our warriors hanging from
The trees where the children played
In the summer sun
Oh, courage and hate
They will not break, they will return

Carry on, we will see justice done
I swear I will return
Take back what is mine forever
Carry on, a reckoning will come
I swear I will return
Take back what is mine

Sunlight dancing on the water
Wind whispering their names to me
They are calling me, are you there?
In the dream world they await for me


Reckoning, a day will come
I swear I will return
Justice will be done
It′s not the end of the story of my tribe
I feel my ancestors in me
They are alive
Carry on, we will see justice done
I swear I will return
Take back what is mine forever
Carry on, a reckoning will come
I swear I will return
And take back what is mine

In this vision
I see through their eyes
