Translation
Bilingual
Blowing dust from pages of the book of the old ways
Tryna fan a fire that's been smoking since they came
Distant songs powdered bones
Deep inside the caves
Sentimental pieces the eye cannot locate
Tryna find some reason in the pain of it all
And time
Oh, time marches on
We're walking on broken glass
Tryna get along with peace
And every piece the centre of it all
Wounds as deep as canyons
Hands worked to the bone
Sacrifices undenied to get us to this point
And hand in hand we stumble on
And listen to your songs
And breathe
Oh, we breathe with heavy hearts
And I lay here awake
ย
Thinking what you would say
As you are always in my heart
Burning strong from the start
ย
Now that you're gone your flame burns on
Dawn through to dusk
ย
High above the mantle
High above the shame
King parrot calls the one he loves
To keep her close and safe
Their pride it is their nature
And from nature it was raised
The pride inside of all of us
Can be extinguished by hate
Am I not my father living with this curse
Am I not my mother a veil over the hurt
You have shown me freedom
King within my gates
You have shown me anguish for
The things I couldn't change
And I will lay down my ego for you
ย
But it's hard sometimes to let it all come loose
Oh, we are bound up so tight
Conditioned from the fight
Generations of wrongs became our truth
ย
And I lay here awake
Thinking what you would say
And you are always in my heart
Burning strong from the start
ย
Now that you're gone your flame burns on
Dawn through to dusk
ย
Please help me see your wisdom on my own when I am weak
When there's trouble on every side
When the rain clouds fill my mind
When the words become so faded I cannot read
Help me to fly or help me to fall
Must I do it on my own all alone
Days I'm scared for my life
Days I cannot stop my mind
Days I know that I can see but I am blind
And when the rain finally falls and
I have no strength at all
And I just wanna slip away
And find your soul
Give me strength
ย
Oh, Lord give me strength
