"Coercion is ancient, but freedom is the oldest.

Let Mjölnir crush the power, let the leader understand

I know one that will never die - the raised hammer against encumbering chains

I know one that will always prevail - Asathor's wrath against pushy giants"

[jrgenkratz]

My norwegian (or english) isn't perfect - I'm Smålandian, but here's an attempt at an English translation if anyone cares:

"Those who want to rule you are many, tether you in thralldom

Let them know what you think of master races and kings

Free from predominance and impotency, thats how i want to live.

And do what I want, with common sense and courage

Be your own chieftain in small and large matters

Such is the norse doctrine, the art of living as a free person."

I'm an anarchocapitalist, which means I don't want a government at all. A government is by definition violent and barbaric, and incompatible with a civilized society. Statism is the strange religious belief that whatever is wrong and immoral to do for regular people - like robbing, enslaving and murdering - suddenly becomes moral if you put on a uniform and call yourself the state. I do not know of the precise political views of Solefald, but these lyrics have a clear anarchist message.

@jrgenkratz go write a book.

Awesome lyrics! We may have gotten rid of Christian oppression in Scandinavia, but the beast called the state is more tyrannical than ever. End socialism.

@jrgenkratz what type of government would you choose over the current socialistic one?
