lyrics

Here we are, surplus humanity
forgotten but not yet gone
Our ransacked villages, tattered bodies
have not kept our struggle from going on

We
Who set out to found no cities, we are the found
Who were bound for no victories, we are the bound
Who levelled nothing before us, we are the ground
Who will not be silenced, we are the sound

Our dead will remain nameless
Our ancestors mere hand, faceless

Taken from our graves, robbed from our wombs
Your fragile apologies resonate in hollowed tombs.
