[Verse 1] Under stone skies Old dust in our hands Names carved in clay Still breathing in the sand We walk in silence Eyes steady Unafraid Palms open Empty Still sharper than a blade [Chorus] Ameshasepanta Stand together Heart to heart We rise Ancient rivers carry courage In our bones It never dies Ameshasepanta Stand together Shoulder Soul And spine Non-violent We are many And your struggle is mine [Verse 2] Lanterns in doorways Soft glow on the walls Grandmothers watching For a crack in the halls We answer with presence We answer with prayer One breath One promise We will meet you there [Chorus] [Bridge] You can chain the gates You can guard the square But the patience of a people Is a storm in the air Hands raised Empty Still we hold the line Old words New faces All repeating one sign [Chorus]
