Lyrics
Sails to the Sun ... let the journey BEGIN!!
Verse
The horizon was painted in crimson and gold,
the air filled with whispers of places forgotten and old.
No king’s iron grip, no crown’s gilded lie
could hold back our hearts that were born to defy.
The ropes slipped away as the coastline withdrew,
while the sails caught the breath of the wide ocean blue.
The deep heard our vow, and the stars marked our way,
to the life we had dreamed of since our very first day.
Chorus
Raise your rum, let the black flag fly!
We will ride the storms and kiss our shackles goodbye.
With fire in our hearts and salt in our veins,
where the stars guide our way and no tyrant remains!
Hey-ho! Hey-ho! We’re the wild and the free,
Our dominion is the tide and the endless sea!
Verse
We dance with the waves in the jaws of the deep,
and take what the lords are desperate to keep.
We sing to the moon as the dark waters roll,
and wager our lives for the thrill in our soul.
No finer a bed than the deck ‘neath the stars,
where the tales of the bold are etched into scars.
Through darkness we carve where the old charts go blind,
with a grin for the lost and a toast to our kind.
Chorus
Raise your rum, let the black flag fly!
We will ride the storms and kiss our shackles goodbye.
With fire in our hearts and salt in our veins,
where the stars guide our way and no tyrant remains!
Hey-ho! Hey-ho! We’re the wild and the free,
Our dominion is the tide and the endless sea!
Bridge
Feel the drums, heed the thunder’s call,
through waves we rise, through waves we fall.
The vast ocean we claim, in freedom we roam,
to the edge of the world, far away from home.
Verse
Let the taverns remember the songs that we weave,
about the ports that we kissed and the nights that we thieved.
Of sails torn in battle, and the gold in our hold,
of legends that blaze, ever brighter retold.
But we won’t be found when the boasting begins,
we’re out on the tide with the wind on our skins.
For the sky is our crown and the sea is our throne,
and freedom’s the treasure we’ll claim as our own!
Final Chorus – with Crew-Shouts
Raise your rum, let the black flag fly!
We will ride the storms and kiss our shackles goodbye.
With fire in our hearts and salt in our veins,
where the stars guide our way and no tyrant remains!
Hey-ho! Hey-ho! We’re the wild and the free,
Our dominion is the tide and the endless sea!
Our dominion is the tide and the endless sea!
Who claims the sea?
(WE CLAIM THE SEA!)
Who rides the storm?
(WE RIDE THE STORM!)
What’s the price we pay?
(NOT A DAMN THING!)
And what do we take?
(WE TAKE EVERYTHING!)
