I am the silence in the night
an Eagle in flight
I am a Spirit in the wind
the Wolf you hear howl
on a midnight prowl
I am the beginning and the end
of all that you see

I am not a idol
your Saviour or a King
I am that of everything
with the answers you like to know
of all that you let go
I am forever free

We speak words of wisdom
when the heart is full of sadness
sometimes thoughts of happiness
when we bless the morning sun
other times just for fun
that's where a true poet comes from

We speak these words of poetry
in a timeless past
a masterpiece so vast
where motions and emotions
rush by so fast

We are all, but only one
on a empty highway lane
frost like snowflakes
on a window payne
we hold not the anger
from within
but express our lonliness
with paper and pen

Though our days are not forever
our words will always last
in this world of reality
like hours that never pass
through pastures of green grass
we're just pieces of shattered glass

Feel inside my soul
all the things that I see
what lives inside of me
and fights to survive

Can you taste the love I know
that keeps me alive
and see a part of me that dies

Do you hear the echo
inside me that alone cries
do you know who I am
as you look through my eyes

Do you see a broken man
hiding behind the pain
of memories that remain

Can you feel the sadness
of all the empty madness
that is buried in my mind

Do you know who I am
try to see inside if you can
and tell me what do you find

All the troubles and wars
blood spills and pours
this is the times of revelation
that we destroy all creation
blue skies turn black
days gone we can't get back
this is the end of time
we crossed that thin line
there's no peace anymore

And this is all we have left
between love and theft
children killing children
these are the things we teach them
behind locked doors
there's no peace anymore

Tear down the walls
just to put up new ones
mankind falls
still we never learn
we just let it all burn
there's no peace anymore

We suffer persecution
tortured and put to death
for your belief
you're only just a martyr
in your eye we mortify
as we watch another one die
take your last breath
this is all that remains
there's no peace anymore

Tied to chains
you hide behind repulsion
and there's no resolution
one with power refrains
on your knees he restrains
just like so many times before
and there's no peace anymore

Equa Adanvdo adanedi aya hia nvlinegvgv Yv uduladi nudale iga
(Great Spirit give me the strength I need another day)  
nashi Yv anasgvti adasehede anisoi
(that I may guide others)  

Nasquu gohi Yv adadvdodi vhnai nehi
(Also this I ask of you)  
Equa Unitsi Elohino
(Great Mother Earth)  

We walked in peace and harmony
warriors brave and strong
guided by the Great Spirit in the sky
respecting the way of Mother Earth
we taught this to our children at birth

We were all but one, just like the Eagle, we were free
this was our way, the way it would always be
with our wings spread, we would fly
this was our Native American Pride

Then white man came to take our land
said our way of life was wrong
this is what they would decide
and it didn't take them long

Still we didn't run and hide
we stood tall and made our stand
never to carry the white man's brand
this was our Native American Pride

For our own beliefs, so many died
both women and children cried
as one by one, all was lost
at the white man's cost

Said the color of their skin, made them right
but we didn't give in, without a fight
no matter how hard they would try
they couldn't break our Native American Pride

You walked away
no words left to say
torn between a mixed emotion
******* in a empty notion
your love a deadly potion
I couldn't let go

Remembering everything you said
I love you, I hate you
I need to leave you
I bleed for you, I wait for you
still these words in my head

Caught in this whirlwind
between an enemy and a friend
time passes we try to pretend
both looking for something new
these nights just trying to make it through
losing everything that we knew

Remembering everything I said
I love you, I hate you
I need to leave you
I  bleed for you, I wait for you
Still these words in your head

And as we try not to let it show
hiding behind the pain
this love we both refrain
nothing here is the same
just another dying flame
all that's left will remain

Remembring everything we said
I love you, I hate you
I need to leave you
I bleed for you, I wait for you
Still these words in our head

Feel the beat of my drum
and dance to the wind
through the words of my wisdom
may you find your freedom
to brighter days to come

Carry in your heart a Warrior's song
when you feel the road's journey
has been exhausting and long

When you feel your path broken
and you can't seem to mend
look inside yourself you will find me
and I will make you live again
