Sechem – Raise Your Flask lyrics

Can you feel they’re increasing in strength?
Winds of change blowing everywhere.
A new era starting again,
Pillars of Antiquity falling in.

This long pilgrimage
Let me explain to you,
How the faith of a man can break through
Walls of an empire
And leave sages mute,
So raise your flask!
Turn your water into wine.

Travelling to our Holy Lands,
Leaving our footprints in the sand...
Skeptic ones want to punish us,
We turn their violence into dust.

This long pilgrimage
Let me explain to you,
How the faith of a man can break through
Walls of an empire
And leave sages mute,
So raise your flask!
Turn your water into wine.

You can try to defame us
With your lying tongue.

You can persecute us all
With your empty force.

You can hunt us just like rats
And tear us apart.

We believe in who we are
We won’t betray our hearts.

In this long pilgrimage
Let me explain to you,
How the faith of a man can break through
Walls of an empire
And leave sages mute
So raise your flask!
Turn your water into wine.

In this long pilgrimage
We find our paths,
Romans dealing with an internal fight
Against themselves
And that’s all that they have,
So raise your flask!
Just be proud of who you are.
