The Dispossession

Ice, wind, fire and snow
You blink once and its time to grow
Cold forcing you ever north
Brothers and sisters go forth

Enemies plot demise
Unearthly faces despise
Spirits preach of the one
In earthly shadows brighter then the sun

The time to learn is here
Blood, sweat and fear
Move ever closer to your fate
Love, lust and hate

Taking the soul ever farther
Mother, daughter and father
Fighting under the moon
Soul ever stirring in the gloom

Move further into the dark
The land nothing but stark
Move from the enemy unseen
Moving further then you have ever been

Shedding unheard tears
Learning to overcome your fears
Move now, faster then ever before
Unleash your soul and let it soar

Touch the one
Get burned by the sun
Lift your arms and take flight
Look into the sky so bright

The soul seer will teach you the way
In one way or another you will pay
Little children follow the path
Or face the creators wrath

Take but remember to give
Remember the way you lived
Forever thankful for the gift
Your voice lifts

In a song that you have never sung before
Your lives will be changed forever more
Sing, chant and dance
Live and love romance

Follow the spirit of the dead
On their flesh you fed
Talking in circles of light
No more will to fight

Move ever further from your home
Closing your eyes and letting your mind roam
Displaced, living in disgrace
Never forgetting your place

The spiral of life is ending
No warrior left defending
What little you have left
All of your people bereft

The spirits plot demise
As your soul flies
Dance with the one
Praise every day with the rising of the sun

Learning a new way of living
Your soul never forgiving
Giving up and leaving it behind
Moving ever north hoping to find

What you were sent to seek
But the land looks bleak
Decisions made a million miles away
Will decide your fate this day
