Lyrics[edit | edit source]
I have no home, I live within my mind
I have no one, no one
I bring the earth and the sky with me
No weapon, I carry no sword
Only my hands to protect me
No laws, I obey no laws
My spirit is righteous and free
Her face, the image of a thousand wonders
A bridge between today and yesterday
If I pull up close, what will the spirit say?
I have no home, I live within my mind
I have no one, no one
I bring the earth and the sky with me
Her face, the image of a thousand stars
A bridge between tomorrow and today
If we destroy one another, dawn will never break the day
Day breaks, but there is no light
In my mind, the voice calling
Spirits singing a song of the ages
Defend unto death thy father's honor
She has come to take it away
I see by lightning's flash
As the star leaves my hand
Body of an angel, with the strength of ten men
Through the trees, dark as the raven
Black and flying, the justice of heaven
I have no home, I live within my mind
I have no one, no one
My spirit is righteous and free
No weapon, I carry no sword
Only my hands to protect me
No laws, I obey no laws
Without honor, you'll never be free
