Treaties unjust, an insatiable lust Of our hunting grounds White settlers, deceitful peddlers Push them back away from the old mounds Warriors press on, steal all their guns Swift execution in multiple rounds Divert the factions, united actions Push them back away from the old mounds Movements of the Enemy Defiance and Resistance Supreme command, to retake our land This is more than survival Merciless scalping, intimate revenge An indigenous fucking blood revival Prepare for War Native Vengeance Summon the War Raids

Declaration of war, deadly skirmishes Near the Ohio River we lay in ambush Raising the war club To the cries of war An onset of death to the long-knives They march on and burn our villages Hostile campaign to weaken their forces A fire is lit in our fervent hearts Armies assembled, battles are won Bashing the skulls of our enemies One by one The Great Spirit protects us Courage and strength To defend for our freedom Protection Destruction Determination

Prophetic uprising, a spiritual movement United in the signs and omens of our lore Visions of snakes, birds, lightning, and wind Tempest conditions and incantations “I am the deliverer of my people We are the first creations from the Master of Life We must reject the ways of the Pale Face And return to the ways of the Ancient These lands are ours And no one has the right to remove us Because we’re the first owners The Great Spirit above Appointed this place for us In which to light our fires And here we will remain” Council fires perpetually kindled To signal a meeting of unity Across all nations And here we will remain

Invalidation of the Treaty of Greenville Here, from distant lands, we gather To smoke the pipe of peace And plan our defense in secret Come! Join us Shawnee Come! Join us Potawatomi Come! Join us Wyandot and Lenape Come! Join us Sauk, Fox and Odowa Come! Join us An escalation of eroding relations Peace broken at the Battle of Tippecanoe Along the Wabash, the enemy travels Intrepid warriors, never yield to the opposition Chants of War Open combat in the smoke of battle Tecumseh’s Confederacy, an empire Before the Will of the Great Spirit

Bloodshed spilled Attacks from the long-knives Left many fearless men dead or wounded Under the British flag A new alliance is formed Comrades in arms, bound by a common peril Proclamation Of a war of extermination Relinquish thoughts of deliberate murder British aid against advancing Americans Sound the cries of war, in pursuit of victory Shoot! Blood! Charge! Battle Night falls on Canadian soil Retreat and recovery Dreams of perseverance Tecumseh vows To maintain the fate of his people Procession of an American invasion Advance! Advance

Along the flowing river of the Thames The enemy crosses in boat and cavalry Weakened British troops, clinging on For a final stand is imminent American horsemen dash at the line Exhausted and disordered A second barrage follows Riding and firing The attacks quickly subdue The expected surrender And subjugation Others fled upon seeing the enemy Native warriors remained Lurking by the swamp Unknowingly left to fend for themselves Within range the battle began Tecumseh has Johnson in sight He charges Leaders of opposite brigades Face to face But in a single shot to the chest The fall of his tomahawk signals the end

"Tecumseh was one of the most renowned of a race of orators The stately Algonquian language displayed its greatest beauty when spoken by him. His eloquence flowed as freely as a mighty river, or again, thundering like a cataract, it swept everything along on its tempestuous tide. Tecumseh's speech can never reach our ears; we cannot see the light flash from his hazel eye or the smile play upon his bronze cheek. We cannot watch his graceful gestures. His personal presence we may not feel; but behind his recorded words we are still aware of living force and power We can picture his manly form in its simple attire, as he paces up and down, dominating his hearers by his persuasive speech, convincing their reason, controlling their judgment, compelling their action. None knew the untaught and unteachable art of oratory better than Tecumseh. Throughout his life it ever played an important part, from his first outburst, which was in defense of a helpless captive, until his last appeal to the courage of a British general. Tecumseh acquitted himself gallantly upon the field of battle, where he was always conspicuous for his courage; but in the council-chamber there were also battles to be fought, in which words were weapons, and there Tecumseh was no less conspicuous and successful."
