Bastard Nation - Desert Son Lyrics

The wind and the sun
United they stand
As his journey begun
They took him by the hand

Ride on, son of the desert
The legacy of ancient times
Keep up, son of the desert
The constant in a changing world

Ocean of sand beneath the sky
A blue firmament up to the world's end
Under a red, a merciless sun
A prophet rose his protecting hand
The tides of fate are changing fast
Sand storms etch away all hope
Forsaken plains - they will last
The journey will be cut like a rope

Led by deep faith and pride
He stands so mighty and grand
With true belief on his side
He is a king in an open land

Scorching heat burns the soul
Every breath is filled with pain
Journey on - reaching the goal
Hunger shall not have been in vain
Beams of the sun blinding the eyes
Misguiding illusions - one by one
God granted him a thousand lives
The kismet of a lonely desert son
