Скачать или смотреть Crowmaster - Rainmaker/Arid Eden (2026) A Song for Africa

The lyrics describe a land suffering from drought, symbolized by "Arid Eden - Cradle of Dust" (4:10-4:21). The people yearn for rain, lifting their hands to the sky (6:05-6:10). The brief relief of thunder and rain is seen as a "mourning song" (6:25-6:47), a temporary reprieve in a cursed dominion (6:47-6:52). The themes of longing, unfulfilled promises, and a harsh environment are central to the song.

"Arid Eden" is described as a "Cradle of Dust" (4:10) where beauty burns and mercy rusts (4:21). It's a place where people "dance on salt and sand and sin," calling it "life" and "home" (4:53-4:59). The song portrays it as a land suffering from drought, where mirages are like gods who have turned away (5:05-5:10).

Under the sun that never rests
In dusty rivers we reminisce
Cracked earth remembers the flood gone by
we're left to wonder as the earth it sighs
the ghosts of rain drift in the wind
the scent - a promise, was never kept

Arid Eden - cradle of dust
your beauty burns, your mercy rusts
We dance on salt and sand and sin
We call it life, We call it home.
Mirages wear the face of gods
who turned away, so unashamed.

Yet still, the people lift their hands
begging to the sky, in these dry pans
Acacia thorns piercing the silence
where shadows thirst, in the confluence

When thunder claps we all rejoice
the rain a mourning song - a gathered voice
heaven bleeds at last, a welcoming
a brief forgiveness that will not last
cursed dominion - the earth's standing by

Under the sun that never rests
in dusty rivers we reminisce
Cracked earth remembers the flood gone by
we're left to wonder as the earth it sighs
the ghosts of rain drift in the wind
the scent - a promise, was never kept

Arid Eden - cradle of dust
your beauty burns, your mercy rusts
We dance on salt and sand and sin
We call it life, We call it home.
Mirages wear the face of gods
who turned away, so unashamed
