Lords of the Open Plains | Country Western

Country Western

A western anthem inspired by the resistance and spirit of the Comanche people. Dark folk melodies, powerful choirs, electric guitar, banjo, harmonica and haunting atmospheres come together to tell a legendary story of honor, loss and defiance across the open plains.

Lyrics:

Before the rails cut through the land,
Before the lies were written down,
The plains were free, the horses ran,
No kings, no flags, no stolen ground.

Born in thunder, raised in flame,
Sky our roof, earth our name,
We rode with dawn, we rode with night,
Comanche hearts carved out of fight.

WE ARE THE LORDS OF THE OPEN PLAINS
NO CHAINS ON US, NO FOREIGN NAMES
YOU TAKE OUR LAND, YOU BREAK OUR BONES
BUT NOT OUR SPIRIT, NOT OUR SOULS
HEAR THE DRUMS, HEAR THE CRY
WE DO NOT KNEEL — WE DO NOT DIE

Iron roads and marching lines,
Paper peace and loaded rifles,
Every promise sealed in ink
Was drowned in blood and broken titles.

Buffalo fall, the sky turns red,
Children learn the words for dead,
If this world wants us erased,
We’ll burn like fire, we’ll leave a trace.

WE ARE THE LORDS OF THE OPEN PLAINS
BORN OF STORMS, BORN OF PAIN
YOU DRAW YOUR BORDERS, BUILD YOUR WALLS
THE PRAIRIE STILL HEARS WHEN WE CALL
HEAR THE HOOVES ACROSS THE SKY
WE DO NOT KNEEL — WE DO NOT DIE

They called us savage, called us wrong,
But the wind still knows our song,
You can kill the man, burn the ground,
But you can’t silence the thunder sound.

Hey… hey… hey…

WE ARE THE LORDS OF THE OPEN PLAINS
TIME MAY PASS, BUT BLOOD REMAINS
YOU STOLE THE EARTH, YOU STOLE THE SKY
BUT NOT THE REASON WE FIGHT
FROM THE DUST TO THE AFTERLIFE
WE DO NOT KNEEL — WE DO NOT DIE
