The Essence Of The Ashes Lyrics - Everything Remains: As It Never Was - Eluveitie

And it came to pass 

In those leaden days 

That a plain, poor man 

Got sick of his yoke 

Of condemned soil 

And foreign empires hungry purse 

Time to replace 

Pitchfork with sword 

And sound the anthem 

Of sheer rebellion 

Enough 

Once too often 

Enough 

Is enough

We strive not for war 

We just crave to have our home 

We just seek to have the rights 

That our fathers used to have 

We strive not for war 

We just crave to have our home 

We just seek to have the rights 

That our fathers used to have 

We tasted grime and blood 

We know the essence of ashes 

A glowing spark 

Rising up from blazing flames 

To lead the forlorn and wrath 

The epitome of hope 

A daring venture 

A frantic attempt 

When Amandus was slain 

The Bagundae still sang

We strive not for war 

We just crave to have our home 

We just seek to have the rights 

That our fathers used to have 

We strive not for war 

We just crave to have our home 

We just seek to have the rights 

That our fathers used to have 

Enough 

Once too often 

Enough 

Is enough 

We strive not for war 

We just crave to have our home 

We just seek to have the rights 

That our fathers used to have 

We strive not for war 

We just crave to have our home 

We just seek to have the rights 

That our fathers used to have 

We tasted grime and blood 

We know the essence of ashes
