Oath of the Free

Verse 1 No throne can buy our loyal steel, No crown commands the vows we feel. We bend to neither king nor gold, For justice is the oath we hold. No tyrant's banner leads our hand, No empire claims this wandering band. Our path is carved by truth alone, By hearts of iron, freely sworn. Pre-Chorus Raise your voices, let them know, Freedom's fire forever glows! Chorus We kneel to none who wears a crown, No king shall ever cast us down. We bow to honor, truth and right, To shield the weak, to join the fight. Our blades are free, our spirits stand, Bound by no throne across the land. Through storm and snow our banners fly, For justice we shall live and die! Verse 2 Beyond the mountains, far away, Where northern forests hide the day, An ancient people strong and proud, Who sing beneath the raven cloud. They guard the pines, the frozen streams, The old gods whisper through their dreams. They heard our oath upon the wind, And knew at once they were our kin. Bridge Not bound by blood, but chosen creed, By every righteous, selfless deed. When tyrants rise with sword and flame, Together all shall know our name. The northern clans now march beside, With axes raised in fearless pride. From deepest woods to southern plains, One brotherhood forever reigns. Final Chorus We kneel to none who wears a crown, No king shall ever cast us down. Our oath is forged in honor's fire, A flame no darkness can retire. From northern woods to tavern halls, Our battle cry forever calls. For justice, freedom, side by side, The Freeborn Mercenaries ride! Outro So let the kings keep jeweled thrones, Their empty crowns and halls of stone. For legends walk where free hearts roam... And honor is our only home.
