Forbears Lyrics by Helgafell

The Voice of Withered Stone

2019

For those who fought and came before us
We must fight to preserve your names
Our common cause sings like a chorus
To prevent extinguished flame
Though wilting spirit still moves forward
We shall never yield to shame
The waves of strife yet still move shoreward
In the seas of memory's grave
Rekindled perserseverance
Native blood still dwells in soil
The threat lies in forgetting
Our forefathers turmoils
Ashes fade in time but voice remains to teach
Giving answers to the stories some still seek
This yearning for connection outlives mortal eyes
The simple thirst for knowledge resists the long demise
We must educate as if their tongues are ours
We must hold the sword as if we wield their power
Folly comes to be when kinsman fail to find
The core of virtue, that lives in pasts behind
Rekindled perserseverance
Native blood still dwells in soil
The threat lies in forgetting
Our forefathers turmoils
This purpose binds us
Until fate finds us
Forbears live through us
Knowledge renews us
Redeeming name through resurrected spirit
Removing blame by harbouring the crest
Keep within you, the air of true antiquity
Fail not to expose tales that are, dear to thee
Live on
Elder ways, (x8)
