[Verse 1] We carved our names in rivers Long before the ink could dry Spoke to the stars Without asking why The trees still whisper What the mountains know But somewhere on the road We let the silence grow We traded echoes For a louder sound Forgot the sky While staring at the ground Now every answer Feels just out of reach Like waves still trying To remember every beach [Pre-Chorus] Maybe the wind still carries Every word we lost Maybe the rain remembers Every bridge we crossed Or maybe memory waits For someone still enough To hear [Chorus] Will we remember? Who we were before Will the rivers call our names? (call our names) Will the stones speak back? Will the fire know our hands? Or have we wandered Too far from ourselves? [Verse 2] The oldest library Never had walls Its pages were written In breath and in falls Every bird returning Without a compass home Every seed that knows Which way is up on its own Every child who laughs Before learning fear Carries a sentence Older than words in here Yet we search the heavens For what we keep inside With our own two hands We let it hide [Bridge] What if wisdom Was never lost? Only hidden Beneath our noise What if the universe Has never stopped speaking? And we forgot How to listen? The stars have not changed The rivers remember The mountains still stand And the truth lives under Only man misplaced His reflection [Chorus] Will we remember? The songs before the kingdoms Will we remember? (will we remember) The names before the borders? The light before the fire? The silence before the first word? Will we remember? Or will memory turn to myth For those who almost knew? [Outro] Somewhere Beyond the reach of pride Beyond the weight of power Beyond the hunger to possess A single page still waits To be turned Not to teach us something new But to return What was always ours So tell me When the forgotten doors open When the rivers carry Their voices back to us When the veil between Memory and truth is lifted Shall we reclaim it And become ourselves once more?
