When the bones of our oppressors are turned to dust
And the cause that we serve rules the world
In a vision
Visitation
All hail the revolution
Armies of the past retreat
In the wake of revolution
A journey to the country
Of the fourth dimension
Spectacle of awakening light
The soldiers are baffled but still they fight

Ooka chaka ooka chaka
Ooka chaka ooka chaka
Ooka chaka ooka chaka

Creator, destroyer, victory, defeat
I did not come to bring us sleep
Black flag, red flag, space and time
The future is my mind

Judgement day descends upon us
After the revolution
The virgins come to set you free
On their lips the light called truth
In minus time or victory
Energy imprisoned will make itself free

Ooka chaka ooka chaka
Ooka chaka ooka chaka
Ooka chaka ooka chaka
Ooka chaka ooka chaka

Creator, destroyer, victory, defeat
I did not come to bring us sleep
Black flag, red flag space and time
The future is my mind

When the war comes
When the war comes
When the war comes
When the war comes
War comes
When the war comes
