In darkness it waits, buried below,
A river of oil, a deadly flow.
A curse bestowed upon a broken land,
A hidden power in the desert sand.
Chorus
Black gold after the flood, the curse of life,
In the ruins and chaos, there lies our strife.
Black gold after the flood, a poisoned kiss,
Draining all that lives, an endless abyss.
Verse 2
The people have suffered, their prayers unsaid,
In shadows they gather, their courage led.
They cry for freedom, to escape this chain,
From the dark grip of power, their hope to regain.
Chorus
Black gold after the flood, the curse of life,
In the ruins and chaos, there lies our strife.
Black gold after the flood, a poisoned kiss,
Draining all that lives, an endless abyss.
Bridge
No more shall we let this torment last,
Rise up together, and break the cast.
We'll build a future beyond this curse,
Unite in the struggle, unswerving, disperse.
Chorus
Black gold after the flood, the curse of life,
In the ruins and chaos, there lies our strife.
Black gold after the flood, a poisoned kiss,
Draining all that lives, an endless abyss.
Outro
In strength and unity, we'll find our way,
Free from the darkness, into the light of day.
For no longer shall black gold's curse enthrall,
Our destiny awaits, and on faith we shall call.
