lyrics

slaves on the mountains
they're coming from over the sea
slaves beneath the desert sun
falling onto their blessed knees

the masters bear the power
they are whipping until they bleed
they came, they saw, they conquered
the chains are on for you and me

no glimpse of hope in the desert – dying for the one
no glimpse of hope in the desert – slaves to the pharao
no glimpse of hope in the desert – dying for the one
no glimpse of hope in the desert – no hope for redemption now

slaves are vanishing
for the secret is alive
the masters will be punishing
the ones who walked with pride

he lives a live of luxury
free from greed and pain
stone by stone the mountain grows
while the nameless poor are slain
