[Intro] My
people,
listen
to
the
story
Yeah,
once
again,
from
the
roots
to
the
sky
[Verse 1] I
look
in
the
mirror
and
I
see
the
lines
of
time
I
look
in
the
mirror
and
I
see
the
lines
of
time
Echoes
of
the
struggle
that
they
left
behind
Walking
on
the
paths
that
they
cleared
with
their
hands
Building
up
the
future
on
this
golden
land
My
father
stood
tall
when
the
rain
came
down
He
wore
his
legacy
like
a
royal
crown
I
am
the
branches,
he
is
the
tree
Keeping
the
light
for
all
of
us
to
see
[Chorus] To
my
fathers
before
me,
I
give
you
my
praise
You
guided
my
steps
through
the
darkest
of
days
Your
wisdom
is
flowing
like
wine
in
the
cup
You
taught
me
the
way
to
never
give
up
Oh,
to
my
fathers,
I
stand
on
your
name
Chale,
your
spirit
is
fanning
the
flame
[Verse 2] I
remember
the
stories
told
under
the
stars
Healing
the
spirit
and
hiding
the
scars
They
worked
in
the
sun,
they
prayed
in
the
night
Ensuring
their
children
would
reach
for
the
light
It’
s
not
just
the
wealth
or
the
house
or
the
gold
It’
s
the
truth
in
the
heart
that
never
grows
old
Wonim?
You
know
what
I
mean
The
strongest
foundation
that
I’
ve
ever
seen
[Chorus] To
my
fathers
before
me,
I
give
you
my
praise
You
guided
my
steps
through
the
darkest
of
days
Your
wisdom
is
flowing
like
wine
in
the
cup
You
taught
me
the
way
to
never
give
up
Oh,
to
my
fathers,
I
stand
on
your
name
Chale,
your
spirit
is
fanning
the
flame
[Bridge] Ei!
The
road
is
long
but
I’
m
walking
it
right
Following
the
rhythm,
keeping
it
bright
With
every
heartbeat,
a
lesson
takes
hold
More
precious
than
silver,
better
than
gold
Ah
ah!
We
keep
the
dream
alive
[Verse 3] So
I
pour
a
libation
for
all
that
you
gave
The
honor
you
showed
and
the
way
you
behaved
I’
m
passing
the
torch
to
the
ones
coming
next
Following
the
rhythm
and
following
the
text
Chop
life
with
purpose,
keep
moving
ahead
Remembering
the
words
that
my
ancestors
said
[Chorus] To
my
fathers
before
me,
I
give
you
my
praise
You
guided
my
steps
through
the
darkest
of
days
Your
wisdom
is
flowing
like
wine
in
the
cup
You
taught
me
the
way
to
never
give
up
Oh,
to
my
fathers,
I
stand
on
your
name
Chale,
your
spirit
is
fanning
the
flame
[Outro] To
my
fathers,
I
say
well
done!
Hear
we
are,
the
legacy
stays
with
me
Yeah,
we
rise,
and
continue
to
thrive
Firmly,
the
journey
continues
Just
keep
moving
on,
yoo!
