Porter Robinson - Years Of War Lyrics






Take one last look at what you're leaving behind, cause there's no coming back once we go
We are the children of an innocent crime, and its time to take down the throne
Although their heads may shake, we'll set the city ablaze for their treachery
We'll spill their blood and set our fathers free

Oohooh, two hundred years of war
Fight till we are no more
A curse on the streets of gold, oohooh
Just know
That mine is a hand to hold
Take back what the kingdom stole
A curse on the streets of gold

Oohooh, two hundred years of war
Fight till we are no more
A curse on the streets of gold, oohooh
Just know
That mine is a hand to hold
Take back what the kingdom stole
A curse on the streets of gold

    bien
    para ser sincero me gusta toda la musica,
    aunque la electronica me despierta, cierto aire de nostalgia y tranquilidad,
    de alli que la escuche tanto
    en fin
    me alegro de escuchar este tipo de musica y felicito a madeon por su buen trabajo,
    aunque creo que nunca vera este comentario
    me fue satisfactorio escribir

    Lyrics in spanish and english

    Spanish

    Tome una última mirada a lo que,
    Usted está dejando atrás,
    Porque no hay vuelta atrás,
    Una vez que vayamos,
    Somos los niños,
    De un crimen inocente,
    Y es hora de acabar con el trono.

    Aunque sus cabezas pueden temblar,
    Vamos a configurar la ciudad en llamas,
    Por su traición,
    Vamos a derramar su sangre,
    Y establecer nuestros padres gratis.

    OohOoh, doscientos años de guerra,
    Lucha hasta que ya no somos,
    Una maldición en las calles,
    De oro, OohOoh.
    Sólo sé,
    Esa mina es una mano para sostener,
    Recuperar lo que se robó el reino,
    Una maldición en las calles de oro.

    OohOoh, doscientos años de guerra,
    Lucha hasta que ya no somos,
    Una maldición en las calles de oro,
    OohOoh, sólo sé,
    Esa mina es una mano para sostener,
    Recuperar lo que se robó el reino,
    Una maldición en las calles de oro.

    English

    Take one last look at what you're leaving behind,
    'Cause there's no coming back once we go
    We are the children of an innocent crime,
    And its time to take down the throne
    Although their heads may shake,
    We'll set the city ablaze for their treachery
    We'll spill their blood and set our fathers free
    Ooh, two hundred years of war
    Fight till we are no more
    A curse on the streets of gold, ooh ooh
    Just know
    That mine is a hand to hold
    Take back what the kingdom stole
    A curse on the streets of gold
    Ooh, two hundred years of war
    Fight till we are no more
    A curse on the streets of gold, ooh ooh
    Just know
    That mine is a hand to hold
    Take back what the kingdom stole
    A curse on the streets of gold

    *"Years of War"*

    [Verse: Breanne Duren]
    Take one last look at what you're leaving behind
    'Cause there's no coming back once we go
    We are the children of an innocent crime
    And it's time to take down the throne
    Although our hands may shake
    We'll set the city ablaze for their treachery
    (Oh oh)
    We'll spill their blood and set our fathers free

    [Chorus: Breanne Duren & Sean Caskey]
    Oh, two hundred years of war
    Fight till we are no more
    A curse on the streets of gold- oh oh, oh oh
    Just know, (that) mine is a hand to hold
    Take back what the kingdom stole
    A curse on the streets of gold

    [Chorus: Breanne Duren & Sean Caskey]
    Oh, two hundred years of war
    Fight till we are no more
    A curse on the streets of gold- oh oh, oh oh
    Just know, (that) mine is a hand to hold
    Take back what the kingdom stole
    A curse on the streets of gold

    Lyrics Time 【=◈◡◈=】


    Take one last look at what you're leaving behind, cause there's no coming back once we go
    We are the children of an innocent crime, and its time to take down the throne
    Although their heads may shake, we'll set the city ablaze for their treachery
    We'll spill their blood and set our fathers free

    Oohooh, two hundred years of war
    Fight till we are no more
    A curse on the streets of gold, oohooh
    Just know
    That mine is a hand to hold
    Take back what the kingdom stole
    A curse on the streets of gold

    Oohooh, two hundred years of war

    Just know
    That mine is a hand to hold
    Take back what the kingdom stole
    A curse on the streets of gold

    R.... W....

    Ominous theological undertones in this song.

    R.... W....

    I thought it was set of f***ers free

    R.... W....

    I was just about to stop listening to it cause of that, life saver man.

    R.... W....

    i thought it was 'although our hands may shake' - i'm gonna stick with it, i like it more.

    R.... W....

    This song seems like its based on middle evil times except in the year 4000 ad

  93. p.... c....

    Why does this sound like it came from the ending of an anime..?

    p.... c....

    Because Porter is a hardcore weeb

  94. N.... ....

    Porter said he estimated spending over 300 hours on this one alone :o

    N.... ....

    Nalo explains why it’s so good

    N.... ....

    What the hell does he do in all of that time?

    N.... ....

    @Thunderlight Creations You just don't make a song in a few hours lmao. If he was working 40 hours a week it would have taken him about 7.5 weeks which is a lot of course but for a song like this it's not unbeliavable.

    N.... ....

    But I think at some point he said that even though he spent 300+ hours on Years of War, he wasn't entirely proud of the finished product.

    N.... ....

    a Bear Like ik you don’t make a song in a few hours (I’ve done a fair amount of music production over the last few years) but my longest total time spent on a song was probably a little above 24 hours. Idk how someone can keep working on an idea for that long. It’s impressive.

  95. n.... O....

    "can I ask u a question?"

  96. H.... A....
