Judicator - 'Concord' (official music video)

Cry for a land that's scarred and polluted
Cry for a people scattered, uprooted
Serve an elite who see you as chattel
Serve in a silent war for the country's soul

We're cut adrift, divided and hostile
We're storyless, no vision that's common
We had a dream but never woke up to act on it
We had a good future to build

I'm working hard to power through
My place in life and what is true

Holy father, set me free
Let it end, my destiny
Take the scrolls and break the seals
Let it end, our destiny
Concord reigns

Cry
We live in a gorgeous land
And have more than most men can
But still many live like
Free range slaves, alas!
I heard singing in the trees,
The voice of a dove

Beauty will restore the world
Rolling hills and ivory peaks
Who we are is in the land

Blood in changing tides
Dead in growing piles
Blood
It's boiling and floods
From the entrance

Blood on either path
Dead, the past we hold
Blood
We'd dip our hands into the cauldron

Blood rains from the sky
Dead, half buried, raw
Blood from gaping wounds
Cries from the children
