The Thief Speaks

My people are fading
Once we were proud
Now we scrape a living
These are my people

We became tourist attraction
We sold our pride
Sold anything
The company didn't take

I was heir to a proud kingdom
I was young
When it got taken away
I cried

I swore
I would rebuilt my land
Save my people
No matter what

The rich had materia
We needed materia
I had no money to buy
So stealing became my way

Ambushing a buggy of people
Beaten, first time ever
Blustering up my defeat
I joined them

Many places visited
Dreams realised
Sadness seen
My people were not alone in suffering

The company made all suffer
Then the madman came
And he changed everything
I had to fight

Now I'm fighting
For a cause I never knew exist
When I met my companions
My friends, even

I may die
I may live
But if we fail
All shall die

I have no choice
I must fight
I didn't want to
Perhaps I'll save the world

I tried to help my people
But now I'm fighting and killing
Mad gods and greedy companies
They try to kill us all
