Despised Icon - Legacy lyrics

Confusion's in your eyes
Confronted by, by your own mortality
Yet you speak so softly
I know you're still in there
Inside that weakened shell
Clinging to reality a pharaoh lost in hell
Fallen from our family tree
Your heart is pure, please, do not despair
I know you're still in there

Blurred vision, loss of concentration
Sumerian secrets trapped inside your memory
Blessed by your presence for many generations
Sumerian secrets, we'll carry on your legacy

"Apôtre des enfants et gardien de leur foi
Vainqueur de l'ignorance, à l'âme si fatale
Si fatale honneur à toi
Honneur à toi honneur à toi"

Our family's lord and saviour


Alas, your day will come you will remain
Always a father figure
Alas, your day will come you will remain
Always a father figure left the
Motherland for greener pastures
Can't you remember?
You guided us through our failures
We are of the same blood
I know you're still in there
Tired, disillusioned
Can't escape this mental prison
Your heart is pure, please, do not despair
I know you're still in there

Blurred vision, loss of concentration
Sumerian secrets trapped inside your memory
Blessed by your presence
Nearly for a century
Sumerian secrets, we'll carry on your legacy
We'll carry on your legacy
Sumerian secrets, we'll carry on
On your legacy

Cradle to the grave
Tales from the Nile flooding
The Saint Lawrence
No more denial, no more suffering in silence
Cradle to the grave
At peace with your sentence
