Verse 1
There was a time when this land was strong,
Rooted in pride and in stories long,
Now they say that heritage is a myth,
And tradition’s been replaced with a government shift.
They say it’s “inevitable,” just open your eyes,
But we’re losing ourselves while they sell us lies.
Chorus
Smoke and fiction, it’s all been planned,
Trading Irish faces for foreign lads.
Legacy erased by an iron hand,
And now we’re strangers in our own homeland.
Verse 2
They call it progress, but it’s change by force,
A “global vision” that’s off its course.
They talk of diversity like a prize,
While our old ways are fading before our eyes.
A policy twist, a culture dismissed,
“Social stability”? They must’ve missed.
Chorus
Smoke and fiction, it’s all been planned,
Trading Irish faces for foreign lads.
Legacy erased by an iron hand,
And now we’re strangers in our own homeland.
Bridge
They promise peace, but it looks like a mess,
The old Ireland lost in the name of “progress.”
Godless globalists, all for applause,
Tearing our roots without a pause.
Is this the progress they swore we’d see?
Our towns in the hands of the “elite” decree.
Verse 3
Leaders claim it’s unstoppable, a force we can’t fight,
But what they’re calling “future” just don’t feel right.
Our heritage auctioned, a legacy sold,
What’s left of our stories, of legends so old?
Diversity? That’s just a tale,
We’re drowning here while they watch us fail.
Chorus
Smoke and fiction, it’s all been planned,
Trading Irish faces for foreign lads.
Legacy erased by an iron hand,
And now we’re strangers in our own homeland.
Outro
So here’s to the ones who fought and bled,
For an Ireland true, for the lives they led.
But it’s disappearing fast, right before our eyes,
As the lights go out on the Irish skies.
