Testo My People - Bill Miller
Testo della canzone My People (Bill Miller), tratta dall'album The Red Road
My people were here long before
The others cast their sails to the wind
Before the tears of innocence
Like a hard rain would descend
My people spread like eagle's wings
Across the mountains and the plains
Now the feathers have been broken
But the eagle still remains
My people heard the thundering
As the iron horse crossed the land
Its echoes drowning out the cries
Of those who could not understand
My people watched the buffalo
Dying in the sun
While those tracks of steel led to the sea
Their will be done
Now their blood flows through these rivers
And then into our veins
And their hearts are beating louder
Than all the years of shame
And their blood flows through these rivers
Just like an endless rain
And their hearts are beating louder
Than all the years of shame
My people have fought for this land
Here and across the sea
Their shadows cast on sacred ground
For all eternity
My people's pride still can soar
And dance across this land
You can see it in the eyes
Of every woman, child, and man
Because their blood flows through these rivers
And then into our veins
And their hearts are beating louder
Than all the years of shame
And their blood flows through these rivers
Just like an endless rain
And their hearts are beating louder
Than all the years of shame
My people are the Navajo
My people are the Cherokee
My people are Arapaho
My people are Menominee
My people are... my people are
