Blood of the men, blood of the women, blood of the children, blood of the master!
Blood spilled by hands calloused by cotton, those same hands now clinched will break their chains!
Kill them before the wake! Do not let them cry out!
We must burn this cursed place! Will, bring a torch!
There is a fire at the plantation house! (There is a fire, plantation house)
The master’s world is burning. Their field hands set it ablaze (The master’s world burns, fields set ablaze)
There is a village in the swamp land filled with former slaves (Great Dismal Swampland, filled with freed slaves)
Southampton’s insurrection will seek refuge there… (Southampton’s in fear of slave revolt)
House to house the rebels creep through the night
Some on horseback, some on foot, all move with purpose!
Spilling blood of masters, sparing no one!
Taking rifles and horses as they go
Beating folks to death with a fencepost
Riding out! Rebels surround the next house! Keeping word from spreading
Will, bring me a torch!
Cut them down! No whites escape! They all die tonight!
Burn this plantation to the ground!
Dawn approaches. We must recruit more folk, grow this insurrection
Will, ride to the north, we’ll regroup after each of us has grown their strength
Free all the slaves you find burn all the plantations
Go quickly now! We meet in one day at Jerusalem
Did you see him riding on his horse? Nat Turner, the Prophet!
He leads an army of free slaves, he’s broken their chains!
A band emerges from the woods
Fires at my neighbor’s house
Screams from my neighbor’s house
The rebels point at my house
Now they have seen me
Now they approach me
The rumors are true, there is an insurrection, its leader standing in front of me
Now it is my time, these rebels will surely kill me. I will not live to see another dawn…
But Nat did spare me! He turned his men around, told them that I’m no master
Nat said to his men “this man does not think that he is better than us”
There is a fire at the plantation house! (There is fire, plantation house)
The master’s world is burning. Their field hands set it ablaze (Master’s world burns, fields set ablaze)
There is a village in the swamp land filled with former slaves (Great Dismal Swampland, filled with freed slaves)
Southampton’s insurrection will seek refuge there… (Southampton’s in fear of slave revolt)

I knew the bandname, but never checked 'm out. I kind of regret that now, I could have known this so much earlier. Oh well, time to catch up now. dcdirkzwager

Incredible work. The anxiety and horror of the ocean is so present in the music and lyrics. Sad that I came upon this project after its conclusion but excited to see what the musician behind it will do next if anything. Will be a blessing regardless I figure. Grey
