[Verse 1] The Great Spirit gave the rain to the root Gave the silver to the river, gave the blossom to the fruit. We were told to be the shadow, told to be the helping hand But we built a wall of iron 'round a dying piece of land. The wings are unfolding, a curtain made of night Measuring the darkness we mistook for light. [Chorus] We are not the thunder, we are not the rain We are but the vessel for the blood within the vein. When the ego rises, when the heart turns cold The Sky-King gathers what the people couldn't hold. When the Thunderbird speaks, let the truth be told. [Verse 2] You drank from the well then you poisoned the flow Forgot that the seeds of your brother must grow. You claimed the high mountain, you claimed the wide sea But you cannot cage the spirit that was born to be free. The ozone is burning, the silence is thin The balance is shifting... let the clearing begin. [Bridge] Power is a loan Earth is not a throne What was given in trust... Returns to the dust [Outro] We are not the power. We are just the breath.
