A song about Indigenous history and prophecy.
Lyrics:
Have you heard of this place that is so far away?
Justice falls down like rain, all victims have a name
Is this heaven? Is this hell?
They make mountains of ash, all servants put to task
Kids too afraid to ask, as oppositions clash
Will it cease? I can't tell
But a long time ago, we met with a septet
With wisdom and wit sharp as knives
They brought, along with prophecies,
A whole new way of life
Did you take heed to what the seven prophets said?
They warned of a vicious race to come ahead
We know who we are, and to what we should aspire
This is the clarion call to find your eighth fire
When we met with this man, he said he had a plan
To create a new faith and to conquer our land
And we tried to make peace
He stepped back and drew swords
And his galloping hordes
Did pay heed to his words, marching forth like a storm
Confusing us with disease
And I don't know if it's the time of year
Or maybe it's the time of man
But something inside's burning makes me want to understand
Did you take heed to what the seven prophets said?
They warned of a vicious race to come ahead
We know who we are and to what we should aspire
This is the clarion call to find your eighth fire
