The Wolves Have Returned

I'm cutting the bad fruit off of my tree to Lighten my load and grow me tall Just like my dogma, this fire pit mantra Covered in ashes, now take me home Shedding my antlers and making up answers To the mystery of nature, so reach for the sun Spruce tips and cedars now free up them rivers The salmon will run, no dam can hold Uniting the nations, it's gonna take some patience So unzip your sheepskin, the wolves have returned (Ah-ooooo) The wolves have returned (Ah-ooooo) I call to the spirit, brother I hear it Union of all things, like words on the sky I read the totems, my ancestors wrote 'em Now I sit patient, as I wait on the tribe This runs through all things, like thunder and lightning Song everlasting, well always I learn Pull off the old skin, now we are kindred Open and listen, the wolves have returned (Ah-ooooo) The wolves have returned (Ah-ooooo) So channel the old ones, with each waking new sun Walk with your totem, conditions unsaid Walk from the mystery, a love where you feeling Myrrh for protection, a spear in your hand In light of our dreaming, never meant to be easy Sometimes there'll be water, sometimes you'll be dry Footprints in tandem, in this ancient sandstone Grandmothers reside, and I'll be by your side Oh, I will be by your side Grandmother, I will be your side, oh Part of creation is making a statement You can't escape it, she's coming for you If it was up to me, I'd teach that the lonely This is just part of the courage it takes Maybe it's the music, it's moving right through us All of the songs that will outlive me I'm running the song lines, I'm wrapping my prayer ties Preserving the old way, my wolf has returned (Ah-ooooo) My wolf has returned, oh (Ah-ooooo) Go on and carry your flag, carry your flag, I got your back Go on and carry your flag, carry your flag, I got your back Carry your flag, carry your flag Carry your flag, carry your flag Carry your flag, carry your flag Carry your flag, carry your flag Carry your flag, carry your flag Carry your flag, carry your flag Carry your flag, carry your flag Carry your flag
