Ever Onwards! : Imperial Peacebringers Song

Details

Description

Another AI song about the Wars of Unification. This isn't a 40k song, but it could be said to be in the same genre and style. This is from and about my universe (linked below).

This one focuses on the Imperial Fervour aspect of the Wars, and more clearly identifies the traitors to All Humankind as the Terran Federation perceived them.

Edit: It seems that in my infinite wisdom, I managed to cut off the last few seconds of the song while editing. *sigh* Not much I can do now.

Here's a brief summary of the context:

The Wars of Unification were the crucible in which the Terran Federation at long last unified the Human Race. Reformed from the United Nations, the Federation waged a war not of conquest, but of annihilation—an unrelenting campaign to eradicate nationalism and religion, the twin scourges that had plunged Humanity into perpetual bloodshed. This was no mere war; it was Imperial Fervour, a secular crusade to bring unity to the All Humankind, no matter the cost.

The Imperial Peacebringers, formerly the UN Peacekeepers, were raised by the Federation’s newly-formed provinces, marched beneath black and gold banners, their battle cry echoing across a world in flames: "Children of Terra, death to her foes!" Against them stood coalitions of defiance: the National Front, clinging to the sanctity of the nation-state, and the Covenant of the Heavens, uniting ancient faiths in defiance of a godless future. The Federation’s goal was not to subjugate these enemies but to erase their very existence—to burn their ideologies from Terra’s soil and ensure they could never rise again.

Driven by revolutionary zeal, the Federation unleashed total war on a scale never before seen. Entire cities and continents were consumed in fire and fury, reduced to ash to break the will of those who dared resist. For the Federation, there could be no compromise, no peace, only the final victory of unification or eternal shame in failure. It was a war to at long last end the 'war of all against all', a final bloody chapter to ensure Humanity would stand united beneath one banner forever.



Lyrics:

We march as one from Terra’s land,
No flags, no gods, no sacred hand.
The Earth is ours, her children free,
No king, no creed, just unity.
We are the storm, the iron tide,
With fire and steel at our side.
Our cannons roar, the ground will quake,
For Terra’s will, the world we’ll break.

Forward, legions, thunder roar!
Break the lines, we are the war!
No gods above, no nations stand,
Just Terra’s might and her command.
Our numbers vast, our will is true,
We’ll crush the old and birth the new.

In armour clad, our stride is long,
With heavy guns, our song is strong.
The earth will shake beneath our tread,
As we march on, where traitors dread.
No prayers, no flags, can stop our might,
We’ll turn the dark to blazing light.
The past will burn by our lance,
For Terra’s future, we will advance.

So, onward, onward, steel in hand,
We carve our path, we take our stand.
No gods can bind, no borders contain,
Our Terra’s will, through blood and pain.
Our hearts are fierce, our aim is clear,
We'll sweep aside all doubt and fear.

From the cities to the stars,
Our fire will reach every distance far.
With shells that fall like rain of lead,
We’ll paint the world in glowing red.
Attrition’s grind, relentless pace,
No foe can last, no hiding place.
We are the tide that never ends,
The steel, the flesh that Terra sends.

So, onward, onward, skies will rend,
The world remade, the old must end.
With Terra’s strength, we cleave the past,
In every blow, a die is cast.
Our future bright, our banners high,
We shape the future, unite our kind.

The old will fall, the new will rise,
In Terra’s name, beneath our skies.
We are the hammer, we are the flame,
The world will bend to Terra’s name.
No more the chains of flags and faith,
We march as one, we forge our fate.
The heavens fall, the nations fade,
In Terra’s fire, the future’s made.

Forward, legions, thunder roar,
Our wills are steel, our destiny foretold.
For Terra’s cause, we fight, we die,
And in her name, we’ll touch the sky.
The past will burn, the future nears,
With fire and steel, we have no fear.
We are the legions, Terra’s own,
In endless waves, her power shown.

So, onward, onward, break the dawn,
Break the lines, we are the war!
No gods above, no nations stand,
Just Terra’s might and her command.
Our numbers vast, our will is true,
We’ll crush the old and forge the new.

So, onward, onward, break the dawn,
Break the lines, we are the war!
No gods above, no nations stand,
Just Terra’s might and her command.
Our numbers vast, our will is true,
We’ll crush the old and forge the new.
