Woe to the People of Order - Technoblade's War Ballad (Knight of Endale Cover)

[@KnightofEndale]

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

[@mayonnaisewithbacon6099]

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? *Technoblade never dies!*

For those curious, the Latin “Omnis sanguis deo sanguinis, canis eos comedent” translates to “All blood for the blood god, the dogs/hounds shall eat them”. As a classics major, couldn’t resist adding a touch of my favourite language 😋 Also! We’ve got a discord server! Link in the description!

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.

I had a friend who used to sing the original song in a low register as she walked up flights of stairs, and how it echo'd up the stairs would scare the other girls in her dorm. I like how we now have what I consider a "full version" of the original song. Hands down, a great song made even better

[@spirittail4958]

Id definitely consider this the final and full version the last Livestream techno ever did on the SMP was avenging ranboo so I'm assuming there isn't much else to add outside of maybe a theoretical segment of him witnessing the end of the SMP or something like that but that's very up in the air I'd say this is the final version

I remember introducing my fiancé to Technoblade BECAUSE of this song. Somebody had made a Tik tok of the sound and put it over Tyr (Norse god he follows) and he was like “oh somebody made a song for Tyr” and I listened to it and laughed and told him it was for Technoblade and got to infodump about him and we watched his videos together and we both became fans. My partner and I went long distance (marine training) and even when I couldn’t think of what to write to him I just wrote about Technoblade’s newest videos and when we did finally get to text we’d watch his videos together.

[@AltaMillia]

I have no clue what this song is referencing but at least half of the lines give me entire story ideas. Inspiring as hell. Love this a lot!

[@lumberjackofalltrades]

the latin chanting on the back really sells this

[@Nothingsaddly]

I was expecting a lot, and yet, you still managed to surprise me with how damn good this is! the art, the voice, the emotions, the art (gotta mention how good it was twice), the lyrics changed, the sub texts, every damn thing is perfect! this, in the span of 9 minutes, became my favorite cover of this song! Good job KoE, you're just as amazing as always!

[@curuthalion_]

I have absolutely no knowledge of DreamSmp, but that doesn't stop me from appreciating this wonderful song. Thank you so much for sharing it.

[@psychopathic_pineapple9562]

This is the first time I’ve heard this song, and holy fucking shit. The references, your voice, the art, it’s PERFECT. I’ve entirely just unlocked about three years of half-forgotten memories with this, thank you so much. Woe to the People of Order, Technoblade never dies.

[@KGAGamer]

Man one day this song just randomly came up on my Spotify Weekly and i immediately loved the song. I didnt know multiple people worked on it and even extended it. Well done!

[@redflaregoober]

Ive been listen to techno music recently and this is one of my favorite songs, cannot wait to see your cover of it

[@SeaFireK]

IT EVOLVED. AGAIN. AHHHHHHHH TECHNOBLADE NEVER DIES! BLOOD FOR THE BLOOD GOD! i miss him

[@bella_daze3092]

I was NOT expecting a cover of this song in 2024😭😭😭 this had me so emotional I swear😭 thank you for making this. Technoblade never dies!

[@pipsqueak8401]

This was breathtaking, the production value is insane. What I find most funny though is that like an actual war ballad, you've added onto its legacy. Every version ive seen adds a new verse or line and you carried on that tradition, in a few years from now I think your additions will become part of the song. That is if this doesnt become the definitive version

[@vicenzostella1390]

I am so glad that I was able to accompany this song as it made its waves on the internet: from @TheShinySnivy being the first, followed by @MizzFish covering and adding on to it, with @Seaton making a male version, then the many animatics that came of it, with @Cami-Cat picking it up and spreading it further, to finally your version. Truly, it is like a ballad of old: there is no fixed lyrics, but it is passed down from bard to bard, with each one putting their own twist on it. Thanks for making this!! I hope to see/hear what else you come up with next!!!

[@missingbirds1998]

apologies in advance for being sad but like.. in another world where he didn't die, this ballad would be so much longer, wouldn't it. because he had some big plans? ofc like half the ppl in the smp ended up being terrible people, but at the very least he could've been in more future smps and had more incredible lore. rambling because im sad, my bad

[@Zephyr_Chmura]

I've listened to this song 5 times already, it's amazing. I can see that you spent 6 months on it

[@logancoolidge3201]

"the voices once screaming now hum in my ears" the voices screaming:"BLOOD FOR THE BLOOD GOD! BLOOD FOR THE BLOOD GOD! BLOOD FOR THE BLOOD GOD!" the voices humming:"EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE"

[@Byepixle]

Every time I listen to this the line: "then DIE LIKE ONE" gives me chills

[@chickypvp7305]

holy fucking shit this might be the best technoblade tribute covers ive seen. LONG LIVE THE KING. TECHNOBLADE NEVER DIES

[@doomshark7364]

Such a beautiful cover, the music was perfect and powerful to listen to and the new verse was so well done! Now all that's left is to wait for someone to make one final verse for the passing of Techno and the saga will be completed.

[@cnardundar8319]

man the background is great and the musics pace change just makes this as nice as the original

[@atomf9143]

I think Techno would be happy to hear this. Look what beauty his legend has wrought.

[@nickeel8401]

I'm so glad people still remember Techno and the legacy he left behind to make a song of this caliber. Technoblade never dies, so long as we remember him

[@JosiahRasmussen-qc1pt]

Rip technoblade, you will be remembered in the history of minecraft forever

[@TruCrossxXx]

This is the greatest comment i have ever read in 20 years of being a lurker on this site. To L5R to the epic of gilgamesh. Techno is and has truely become an epic hero in the modern internet era.

[@crystalrose8330]

whoever covers this next, i kinda want them to add another verse about the birth and rising of cheyanne in his wake. The reincarnation of the blood god, continuing his legacy

[@halfshinesketches]

Oooooo nice touch to have a crows call when techno gets philzas message

[@jrl5535]

This song is a perfect conclusion for the once living legend. His last great adventure fully covered. There will be no more, because he is too busy taking on the kingdom of god.

[@austinsimmons577]

Man, I'm SO mad I missed the premier, but this way AMAZING! Technoblade never dies!

[@EnitVal]

I love this so much. The additional lyrics are great! A long time ago, I actually thought just one verse to add but couldn't think of anymore after. It's hard!! I realised in battle I fought not alone More people have joined me, now gone is their home I set a new table, for new creeds and friends And say this is not where my mission ends

[@KnightofEndale]

Ooo cool verse! I like it!

[@silverrealm2945]

Dude became an icon and then, at the peak of his popularity, died, immortalizing himself for eternity.

[@matekovacs207]

Incredible. The voice, the little changes, the artwork, Techno's little break. Incredible.

[@trincywalker7497]

Just found this saga song and Im now a friend not a foe. I just have chills. From mountain top to pushed off to valley below. This song takes you on a life long trip from a true heros path. Crown to betrayed to cycle it over and over.

[@Zyaire286]

This…. I never thought that I would feel shiver again after I watched the original verse. This is amazing, you and everyone did grand work on this music! Technoblade…. Never dies for his will live on with everyone!

[@mrchickenthe1st266]

I'm excited for this! Sounds like it's going to be one of my favourites by you if the whole song is this good!

[@janeenrebel4785]

It gave me chills and I love it and it reminds me of Viking songs cause of the beat. But love it cause it’s my favorite song thank you it’s amazing

[@MizzFishYT]

THIS. IS. WICKED!! HOLY MOLY GREAT JOB!!!!

[@KnightofEndale]

Oh my gosh, it’s you!! Thank you so much! I’m so glad you like it! Also, you’re version of this song was my introduction to it so long ago, so in a way this 6-month-long project is your fault 😅

[@MizzFishYT]

@@KnightofEndale I will gladly take the blame if it led to this masterpiece rendition lol!

[@KnightofEndale]

@@MizzFishYTI’ll do my best to keep it up ☺️

[@darth_dan8886]

This ballad was long overdue for another verse. There might not be that much more of a tale left to tell in it, but I'm sure it will still grow and evolve in times to come - for Technoblade Never Dies.

[@onlysydni]

im actually so excited for this, i love mizz fish's version of this song and from the preview yours sounds so cool, and i already know im gonna love it edit: holy crap that was amazing, the new verse literally made me cry, and the vocals and dynamics were so perfect

[@enoshade]

YES! A cover of one of my favourite songs, I am so glad to see these songs still getting the love they deserve

[@sharalakid]

You got me, I'm crying now, the memories of coming to terms with what happened over the CamiCat version of this song are flooding back like a tsunami of tears, but they're not only bitter, because the reason they exist is something great, and something... Happy.

[@Raccoon662]

Knight of Endale and woe to the people of order!? Yessssss!!!! Fly high king and thank you.
