Carry Fire to the Roots (версия 2)

Verse

Golden light on the ice, smoke from your pipe drifting down

You tell stories of our ancestors — fire that never goes out

I run the roads, gathering the heat — carrying the flames to the roots

The old ones sleep, but I keep the spark going

When the winter gets too cold, you send me with a message

Of how we survived the frost, of how our blood remembers

Every hardship was a test, every storm made us stronger

You teach me what it means to be brave — when the world is against you —

To stand on your two feet, like a mountain that doesn't bend —

Like the fire I carry burning hotter with every step I take —

Pre-Chorus

Take the heat, take the embers — put them in my chest

I'll bring it back to our people — we'll never be the least

Hold your head high like a king — the ice may try to break us —

But we're made of the fire you tell stories about —

Chorus

Carry fire to the roots — keep the flame alive

Every story, every heartbeat, burns in my soul tonight

I'm running through the snow, but I won't turn back

Cause when you speak, it sets me on the right track —

Carry fire to the roots — we'll never lose what we have found

Hold the light for our people, keep it burning underground

Verse

Your words are like a lantern in the dark — guiding me through the storm —

Every time I doubt myself, your voice is there to form —

The fire inside of me that refuses to be tamed

I run until my feet ache and the cold tries to freeze

But I won't let it take what's mine because you taught me how to breathe —

You talk about our victories when all hope seemed lost —

How we came back stronger, like a phoenix from the frost —

The fire in your eyes is burning brighter than any flame —

It reminds me that even in the darkest of times, there's still a way —

To stay warm and keep going forward no matter how cold it gets —

You give us the strength to carry on because we know what we've been through yet —

Pre-Chorus

Take the heat, take the embers — put them in my chest

I'll bring it back to our people — we'll never be the least

Hold your head high like a king — the ice may try to break us —

But we're made of the fire you tell stories about —

Chorus

Carry fire to the roots — keep the flame alive

Every story, every heartbeat, burns in my soul tonight

I'm running through the snow, but I won't turn back

Cause when you speak, it sets me on the right track —

Carry fire to the roots — we'll never lose what we have found

Hold the light for our people, keep it burning underground

Bridge

Maybe one day the ice will melt and the world will be green again —

And all of us who kept the fire going will have been a part of something real —

So I keep running with this spark inside me — passing on what you gave —

To every child, to every grandparent — making sure they know what we've lived —

You planted the seed in my heart and now it's growing strong —

Every time I breathe, I feel your words turning into a song —
