[Title: The Eternal Legacy (Elderly Man)] [Verse 1] On the road to the northern limit, where the freezing blizzards blow I stand alone, beside the rusted fence, under the winter's glow I thought the souls woven by history had vanished long ago Lost with the thunder of horse hooves, buried in the snow But through the white-out, I hear a trembling plea A fragile breath of life, reaching out to me You stood there, Elderly man, leaning on your cane And said, "These sheep are our legacy, surviving through the rain."

[Outro] Elderly man, the wrinkled smile upon your face Sowed a certain seed in my heart, in this lonely place Nameless old man, I receive the torch you hold I’ll face this history head-on, brave and bold That soul, that will That prayer, that passion With this soul, I’ll take that will With this life, I’ll take that passion Aa-!!!! "I swear to this earth, I’ll carry it to the next generation." Elderly man, forever... Elderly man, forev
