[Verse] The sun drops low where the shadows grow A dusty trail where the rivers won't flow I walk alone but I hear the drum A rhythm calling me to where I’m from [Chorus] Roots of the wind they carry me Through the smoke and the fire to the old fig tree Roots of the wind they set me free Through the heart of the mountain to the endless sea [Verse 2] The sky bleeds red where the eagles glide The canyon walls keep the secrets inside I feel the earth hum beneath my feet A sacred dance where the spirits meet [Prechorus] Hear the howl of the coyotes cry Hear the whisper of the roots nearby [Chorus] Roots of the wind they carry me Through the smoke and the fire to the old fig tree Roots of the wind they set me free Through the heart of the mountain to the endless sea [Bridge] Oh the wind it sings in a voice so wild Like a mother calling home her lost child It twists and turns like a rebel’s hymn And pulls me deep into the roots of the wind
