1
My people were here long before the others cast their sails to the wind
2
Before the tears of innocence like a hard rain would desend
3
My people spread like eagle wings across the mountains and the plains
4
Now the feathers have been broken but the eagle still remains
5
My people heard the thundering as the iron horse crossed the land
6
Its echoes drowning out the cries of those who could not understand
7
My people watched the buffalo dying in the sun
8
While those tracks of steal lead to the sea, their will be done
9
Now their blood flows through these rivers and then into our veins
10
And their hearts are beating louder then all the years of shame
11
And their blood flows through these rivers just like an endless rain
12
And their hearts are beating louder then all the years of shame
13
My people have fought for this land, here and across the sea
14
Their shadows cast on sacred ground for all enturnity
15
My people's pride still can soar and dance across this land
16
You can see it in the eys of every woman, child, and man
17
Because the blood flows through these rivers and then into our veins
18
And their hearts are beating louder then all the years of shame
19
And their blood flows through these rivers just like an endless rain
20
And their hearts are beating louder then all the years of shame
21
My people are the Navoho, my people are the Cherokee
22
My people are Arapoho, my people are Menominee
23
My people are, my people are...
