Columbus Lies Here

**Title: Columbus: The Truth Unveiled** *(Verse 1)* They said he sailed for distant shores, For silks and spices, golden oars. But beneath the tales of valor and pride, Lies a truth they worked so hard to hide. *(Pre-Chorus)* He heard the whispers from Viking lore, Stories of lands and much more. With royal papers, a cunning guise, He ventured west under well-crafted lies. *(Chorus)* Columbus: The truth unveiled, He knew the secrets the ocean held. Not just for Asia, but lands unknown, A mission to claim as his own. Columbus: The truth unveiled, History’s secrets now revealed. It’s time to lift the fog of mystery, And tell the truth for all to see. *(Verse 2)* Maps and legends, from ancient days, Norsemen’s stories of hidden bays. Iceland’s whispers, a quiet refrain, A hidden motive driving his campaign. *(Pre-Chorus)* Crucifixes and rosaries in his hand, Not for trade, but to command. Claiming lands with sovereign decree, A conquest of Mohawk, Hopi and Cree. *(Chorus)* Columbus: The truth unveiled, He knew the secrets the ocean held. Not just for Asia, but lands unknown, A mission to claim as his own. Columbus: The truth unveiled, History’s secrets now revealed. It’s time to lift the fog of mystery, And tell the truth for all to see. *(Bridge)* Stars and tides, he knew them well, But there were secrets he wouldn’t tell. A navigator, yes, but so much more, Ambition driving him to explore. *(Chorus)* Columbus: The truth unveiled, He knew the secrets the ocean held. Not just for Asia, but lands unknown, A mission to claim as his own. Columbus: The truth unveiled, History’s secrets now revealed. It’s time to lift the fog of mystery, And tell the truth for all to see. *(Outro)* Now we know the stories spun, Of Columbus and his setting sun. Rewrite the pages, truth in hand, Respect the history of this land. *(Final Chorus)* Columbus: The truth unveiled, He knew the secrets the ocean held. Not just for Asia, but lands unknown, A mission to claim as his own. Columbus: The truth unveiled, History’s secrets now revealed. It’s time to lift the fog of mystery, And tell the truth for all to see. *(Ending)* Columbus: Propaganda be gone. With every word, justice dawns. The hidden truths, we will rewrite, Shedding light on history’s night.
