King Kade
On his throne he sits
In armour adorn
The father of Semaj
Who one day will be sworn
This hunter of demons
Of his people he protects
Generations of allegiance
Infinitive elect
All Semaj has learnt
Has been handed down
Through blood lines so strong
One day he'll be crowned
Their story goes back
Many, many centuries ago
When evil was rife
And living was low
Demons and Wizards
Dragons and man
Violence was rife
Take when you can
But this King Kade
The North of Scotland he ruled
His son was destined
He was not to be fooled
On a dark December night
Whilst the castle was asleep
A craft so unknown
Rose from the deep
From out in the Minch
This metallic beast showed
With flashing lights
And a body that glowed
It rode the waves
And came to rest by the shore
An opening appeared
Like a magic door
Three beings stood
Not very different from us
No fear was detected
Had we already been sussed
We welcomed them in
But i knew in my heart
For it was my son they wanted
He was their new start
Our dialogue was strained
Mixing Gaelic with theirs
But our wave lengths were similar
We became distant peers
This was the day
My son Semaj left home
To Cygnus-X1
Where one day he'd be throned
What happened to us?
Well the strong ones travelled
To the Plough beyond
As our past turned to gravel
But our souls remained
Like beacons of light
For if the earth cried for help
My son Semaj, was in sight
