    LYRICS:
    Oh violence does call me, I’ve answered before
    I made many enemies and settled my scores
    But I did grow weary and I settled down
    And proudly bore the weight of my crown
    I lived on my lonesome away in the far
    Where there was no violence to trouble my heart
    I hung up my sword and I raised up my hoe
    And I lied as I said that I never would go
    But came a cry from a man that I’d known
    Someone to whom rare compassion I’d shown
    And so I opened up my door
    To the man who promised me blood and war
    Oh woe to thee, ye people of order
    I hope your homes continue to smolder
    And that you never rise again
    And leave me be and leave my friends
    I followed him far to a distant land
    Where he had been exiled by one single man
    His horns they were wicked, his power was great
    And you looked in his eyes and were swallowed by hate
    He took me to shelter, his humble abode
    A pitiful cavern his comrades called home
    He handed me bedding and bid me adieu
    As I sat and I pondered on what I should do
    For I craved violence, I craved to be free (I craved violence)
    From the people who wish to control me (I won’t hide it)
    Yes I believe in anarchy’s reign
    I know that dictators only bring pain (I believe in anarchy’s reign)
    Oh woe to thee, ye people of order
    I hope your homes continue to smolder
    And that you never rise again
    And leave me be and leave my friends
    I prepared for battle, I hoarded and schemed
    But I did not know all was not what it seemed
    My allies unstable, their loyalty thin
    Yes we would have victory but what would we win?
    The battle was chaos, blood roared in my ear
    A chain of explosions, they looked up with fear
    They set up a leader and shouted hoorays
    And I shuddered and realized that I’d been betrayed
    Is this what you want, corruption and power?
    Well I won’t stand for it, this is my hour!
    Take on these beasts, I’m now friend to none
    If you think you’re a hero, then die like one!
    Oh woe to thee, ye people of order
    I hope your homes continue to smolder
    And that you never rise again
    And woe to those who called me a friend
    I fled until silence was all I could hear
    The voices once screaming now hummed in my ears
    The cold it was lonely but I was alone
    And I promised that I’d not let blood taint my home
    But then came a message from my only friend
    “Oh warrior hide, or else this is the end
    They’ve bound up my wings and they hunt for your head
    They promised me justice; but they’ll see you dead!”
    They came to me with an armed battalion
    Held an axe to my innocent stallion
    And said “Now it is your turn to bow!
    See how the king has fallen now”
    They raised an anvil and laid me below (Laid him below)
    They thought to crush me painful and slow (Painful and slow)
    But I did live, and I did flee (Don’t let him go!)
    And I put my pick through the butcher’s teeth
    Oh, Woe to thee, ye people of order
    I hope your homes continue to smolder
    And that you never rise again
    And beware of me and beware my friends
    I returned from battle all tattered and worn
    And found at my doorstep a child forlorn
    He told me his story, he told me his woes
    As I thought up a plan for our mutual foes
    I stealthily went to familiar lands
    As I gathered my weapons and laid out my plans
    But when the poor child spoke with friends he had known
    He abandoned our mission and left me alone
    I gathered my hounds and made them devour
    The allies I once knew; sweet friendships now sour
    And let explosions rain from on high
    As I watched them run and fight for their lives
    Oh woe to thee, ye People of Order
    I hope your homes continue to smolder
    And that you’ll never rise again
    And woe to those who called me a friend
    I reveled in victory, time passed in a blink
    I took a new prodigy under my wing
    I watched him grow bolder, I watched him grow brave
    And I watched as they took him and locked him away
    A rescue was gathered, our plans were all honed
    To save my apprentice and the man that I owed
    All went as expected, we thought we’d escaped
    But they grabbed my apprentice, and there he was slain
    My rage and my grief flared brighter than flame
    I charged the warden, but he fled the blame
    And I did swear as he did flee
    I’d avenge the one he took from me
    I tracked down the man to the edge of the world
    With enemies turned allies, his white flag unfurled
    We dragged him back and left him to rot
    And I returned from the carnage I wrought
    Oh woe to thee ye people of order
    I hope your homes continue to smolder
    And that you’ll never rise again
    And beware of me and beware of my friends
    Oh woe to thee ye people of order
    I hope your homes continue to smolder
    And that you’ll never rise again
    Now leave me be for this is the end

    Okay, random as ramble but:
    I love how this song just gets progressively longer and longer the more people cover it. Detailing the adventurers of the Blood God. I know that's often how ballad's go but this one is quite literally evolving in front of our eyes and not several hundred years ago. It's a testament to Techno and how many talented people he touched and inspired, its a testament to the collective storytelling of humanity, how we can create an ever evolving masterpiece from Silly Block Game. How its not some lost art form, but something we simply *know* how to do.
    Because this isn't just some Minecraft song now, its a story. A tribute to a man who people loved and hated, a legend for whom Bards the world over will sing and mythologize about for decades, i hope. A saga of a series of people having fun, of jokes and bits which, for all its silliness and fan drama, evolved from fun, to serious, was parodied back into a joke and then became more. Something that people can look back on and go "I was there, I remember that!"
    It seems stupid because it is. But its so profound because people have been, for better or worse, deeply affected by this silly little story. What started as a joke fight over some discs, turned into a tale worthy of any ancient epic. If you told me, without any prior context, that this was some modern rendition of an ancient hero's story, someone akin to Beowulf or Cú Chulainn, I'd believe you and ask from which land they hailed.
    *That's* the beauty for me! That this isn't some song about a pig guy from Minecraft, its an honest-to-god Ballad. Not some parody, an actual, real thing. And I was there. I watched it grow, and change tunes and be added to and chopped and diced. We aren't playing pretend anymore, this, for all intents and purposes, is a modern ancient ballad. And it spawned all from one man playing bloody *Minecraft* of all things!
    But you don't have to know any of that. That's what makes it so real for me, because the DSMP has evolved into an actual proper story but this? This song? Its about Techno, his adventurers, his wrath and his caring, yes. But its also so much more. Its about betrayal, about a kind and caring man who was stabbed in the back again and again despite simply trying to be a loyal friend.
    Like i said before, you have no need of prior knowledge to enjoy this, its a story unto itself and i can't decide if knowing its true history is better or not.
    And whats even better! (And yes, I am editing this comment as the thoughts come, kinda like a ballad eh? Anyway.) What's even better is that, I can tell you the true story, if I want too. It's not some ancient scrap or tune that historians, who are always feel as if their "someone else," some stranger who went off into some place and did some stuff, there is always some disconnect between an academic and a regular person even if there really isn't. Anyway, it isn't some mismatched fragment of a larger whole that we have to piece together and ascribe meaning to after the fact (yet anyway,) Its something that I, some person, can just explain. This is living memory and will be for decades to come.
    This is the collective creative process in action and its the first time I've personally seen it truly. You might've seen it before, but for me this is my first real taste. This feels like it belongs in the same vein as B-R5RB or Legend of the Five Rings. Its not IRL history but its had a tangible impact upon the collective psyche of humanity regardless. Its stories from stories from stories. And the even bester part is that its all random. Sure the DSMP is psyudo-scripted, but it's crucial points are always open for chaos. B-R5RB didn't have to happen, it was the actual politics of people clashing in a fictional universe. Nobody had to kneel for TotalBiscuit, but they did. The tournament results for LFR (is that the correct acronym? No its L5R don't shoot me i checked. Also I'm specifically talking bout the Day of Thunder but the story itself is great) were completely up to chance and yet the story is worthy of its own epic.
    It feels significant because it was. There was no script, no fad by the creator with no real stakes because the ending is preplanned. None of theses events had to happen like this, none of their peers who I can't remember rn had to be like that, but that was how the dice fell.
    And so we get these grand stories, formed not from a single talented mind but from the love and ambition of their people. And all of that, is something one person could've witnessed.
    And truly, if that *isn't* immortality, then what is?

He spread anarchy and chaos to those who deserved it, he spread joy and kindness to those who earned it. He was known as the blood god to his enemies and known as The Blade to his allies. But to us, he will forever remain Technoblade, king of Minecraft. Woe to the people of order. TECHNOBLADE NEVER DIES!!!

    "If you think you're a hero, then die like one." I love every single cover's interpretation of this line. It's always so intense, but sometimes it's more malicious and aggressive, sometimes it's regretful and sad. For yes, Technoblade was the ultimate antagonist, standing unshakable in the way of every plan and denying all ambition; But only because he kept being drawn in as a tool for those who thought themselves above him. He would tear apart entire civilizations, but never look to do so. At the end of the day, there's pain in his heart, even as he wickedly feasts on the chaos. You want to be the hero, who stands opposed to the monster that he's been made out to be? Learn that the story does not favor you, despite how fiercely he wishes it might.
