Ancient Slav

[Verse 1] Ash on my tongue Snow in my hair I walk the birch line I do not fear Old black river Bends through the pines My father’s shadow Marches in time (ancient Slav) I hear the drum (ancient Slav) I come, I come [Pre-Chorus] Hands to the flame Eyes to the sky The wolf in my chest Will not lie down Bones remember What mouths forgot Strike the earth Wake up the dark [Chorus] Ancient Slav, rise now Ancient Slav, rise now War in the blood Fire in the bow Ancient Slav, call me Ancient Slav, call me We are the old We are the stone [Verse 2] Crows over fields Iron in frost Names on the wind Never were lost Horn from the hill Cuts through the dusk I carry the oath That carries us (ancient Slav) Come to the ring (ancient Slav) Sing, and sing [Pre-Chorus] Hands to the flame Eyes to the sky The wolf in my chest Will not lie down Bones remember What mouths forgot Strike the earth Wake up the dark [Chorus] Ancient Slav, rise now Ancient Slav, rise now War in the blood Fire in the bow Ancient Slav, call me Ancient Slav, call me We are the old We are the stone [Bridge] No crown No chain Only breath Only name Earth turns Dark turns I stand here I return [Chorus] Ancient Slav, rise now Ancient Slav, rise now War in the blood Fire in the bow Ancient Slav, call me Ancient Slav, call me We are the old We are the stone [Outro] Ash on my tongue Snow in my hair War drums fading Still I am there Ancient Slav Ancient Slav Ancient Slav
