Chuckles - Uncommon Valour : Éireannach Scéal Lyrics

I dont know why theyre over here
Their mission is evil
They say were savages amoungst the village people
Not like theyve ever been peaceful
Someone help me understand
We witnesses operation motorman
The invasion of British Troops across our land
Who called for the rebels to disband
To be taken in chains right into the enemies hand
They passed it off as a civil war
Guerilla warfare leavin the peoples hearts empty and poor
Freedom fighters and religious beliefs
Both left the country with two different beefs
Theres no irish border, we end at the sea
Takin a swig of the whiskey to calm us
The paratroopers are almost upon us
Bang bang bullet hit my chest
I think I have earned my eternal rest
Lookin to me left I see my brother caught some of the lead
I see in his eyes hes practically dead
That image stuck in my head
A soul killed by the keepers of peace
Is this the wave vengeance I'm supposed to feel?
How do I fight back when they shoot us down for not bowing While we kneel
Its the uncommon valour of soldiers and chiefs
Who brought the fight and never accepted defeat
Who took sons from mothers and fathers from memory
Who payed with blood for serving their country
Its the uncommon valour of soldiers and chiefs
Who brought the fight and never accepted defeat
Who took sons from mothers and fathers from memory
Who payed with blood for serving their country
Who payed with blood for serving their country
The cry for freedom
When anyone is struck down
Protestant and Catholics fighting over which religion deserves the crown
But fighting over which story tale to believe makes you look like a clown
Green and orange both separated by white
Everybodys lies are brought to the light
Theresa May who put up a fight
That splittin her nation in two just wasn't right
But in hindsight the Irish were forgotten in spite
No matter, our legacy lives on throughout this dark night
For every single soul laid to rest
While we hold the graves of civil unrest
The superpowers are both blinded by numbers
We know what happens in place of a hard boarder
To those in power
Its your final hour
You damned our future
We told you before we wont allow hatred onto our shore
Its the same old song but I'm here to settle the score
The powers that be promised us freedom
And we believed them
In name of the Queen
Our streets ran red with blood of the free
We broke from our modern day slavery
For 70 years of hostil history came to a close
Endless waves of bombings and media circuses
What was the pupose?
We share a sacred land and need to respect eachother
Our histories are bound, like a crew of street hustlers
Centuries of warfare and blood lost amongst your fellow brother
To see communities with cut throat behavior
Makes you wonder what hope the future will deliver
How long do.you plan to keep the hatred?
Do you want your kids to be apart of what you created
Its the uncommon valour of soldiers and cheifs
Who brought the fight and never accepted defeat
Who took sons from mothers and fathers from memory
Who payed with blood for serving their country
Who payed with blood for serving their country
