Eagle Spirit - Blaze Bayley

Here is a prophecy

Two stars will fall from the western sky, on a winters night

The first our dead brother

Though he looks not like us

Be sure he is our brother, come from the eagle spirit

We must pray our prayers of light for him

If our prayers of light be strong enough

If our belief be strong enough

He will rise, and he will know he is home

The second star is a golden ship

Strange gods of gold will hunt us

They are come to eat us all

Every one of us devoured until there is no memory or trace of us

Come to enslave our great mother

Come to violate her

This all shall come

There are things that I’ll never see, that will stay a memory

That’s where they’ll always be so far, far away from me

Things that I’ll never know, now that I am here

Dreams I will always hold as dear as the life that I lost

Shoulder to shoulder they are ready to fight

Fight for their future, fight for their life

As brothers and sisters, they stand against the wind

Standing hand in hand til the battle begins

Their children are slaughtered, their families destroyed

They are starving to death, a bloody revenge is their right

Spirit of the eagle, this land is their home

Hunted down and murdered, here in the place they were born

Moment to moment, here on this sacred ground

They have been living in harmony

Now the redeemer, the new conquistador

Self-righteous master is revealed to all

He plans their extinction, great mother enslaved

Ravaged and polluted, they are living their final days

Spirit of the eagle, this land is their home

Hunted down and murdered, here in the place they were born

I found my redemption, ancient prayers of light

Brought me from the darkness, here is the place I belong

They will never break us, we have to believe

They will never break us if our spirit is strong

If we can hold on to what we believe

They will never break us if our spirit is strong

Their children are slaughtered, their families destroyed

They are starving to death, and bloody revenge is their right

Spirit of the eagle, this land is their home

Hunted down and murdered, here in the place they were born

I found my redemption, ancient prayers of light

Brought me from the darkness, here is the place I belong

Here is the place I belong

Things that I’ll never know, now that I am here

Dreams I will always hold as dear as the life that I lost
