RIP, William Wallace

1305 – After a show trial, William Wallace, leader of the Scottish resistance against England during the Wars of Scottish Independence, was executed in London's Smithfield Market.

In your left hand raise a sword, in your right hand cast a spear
Summon all the thieves and bastards hiding in the woodland

Crack their skulls in the cauldron
For invading our front and she’ll stop the hammer fall
Just know this place could burn us all

We forge our weapons in the furnace
So our hides are like oak tree stumps
Tonight beg before me and I’ll heed your appeal

With your final words be grateful you die by Irish steel
Do not crawl before us, your fate has been revealed
The heavens would not desecrate their games with your admittance

Can recommend the BBC "History of Scotland" Warfish - uncovers a few myths. He was truly a great man.

And Soberphobe I had a shirt in college that said F**k Che that I wore to annoy holier than thou, pretentious, cause seeking trustafarians. Most of them couldn't even tell you when or how he died.
