My take on a poem/chant for thieves that were about to be executed.


The drums sound out in the morn,
a sun glistens like stolen gold,
our final breaths have been taken,
a price set on our stole souls.

For thieves there's never remorse,
our blood has turned black and gone cold,
by these hands we are forsaken,
so we spit! and steal deaths toll.
