Thundering cannon fire is roaring |
|
through the air |
|
They're fighting courageous, driven by despair |
|
Deadly muzzle flash robs them of their pride |
|
Grapuels claw the rail, vessels side by side |
|
Slavery, the pain of the sea |
|
Slavery, inhumanity |
|
Brutes are taking over |
|
To claim their living spoils |
|
Cracking musketfire until every plank is soiled |
|
Surrender's, the only way |
|
to stop this deadly raid |
|
Bloody, fettered wrists, slavery's their fate |
|
Slavery, the pain of the sea |
|
Slavery, inhumanity |
|
Slavery, the pain of the sea |
|
Slavery, inhumanity |
|
Slave trade still exists, it's a legacy of the past |
|
Punishment's long overdue |
|
To fight the fears it casts |
|
Hard - boiled criminals, |
|
they're rotten to the core |
|
Machinery in motion |
|
so long as money is the law |
|
Slavery, the pain of the sea |
|
Slavery, inhumanity |
|
Slavery, the pain of the sea |
|
Slavery, inhumanity |
|
Slavery, the pain of the sea |
|
Slavery, inhumanity |
