the ancestor's path - arctos lyrics
reflected black before me
these waters, ancient, lie
drawing on to depthless chill
awaken thoughts
of journeys past
of those who came before
of those who shared my name
knowing that
from those long gone
a path was lain for me
built from their lives
and passed to mine
yet now the waters cloud
once so clear the way ahead
now offers no direction
towards my journey’s last
no more, shall we walk
with abandon
with spirit unburdenеd
free of weighted thought
the innocеnt choices
left behind, no certainty left
within my mind. relinquished
and with that
my journey can begin
enter now, the frigid
turbid waves. willingly
into their cold embrace
bitterly, straining on
amidst these waters lonely
joyless, this passage
my journey’s fated form
upon my weakened limbs
these blackened waters pull
shuddering
my strength is spent
the depths, they call
to think that i would better
all the dead men of my line
a fickle thought
as fate would show
now it’s my time
as my body fails and
‘neath the waters slips
i close my eyes
for i am in death’s grip
ancient hands reach up
and catch my ragged frame
the echoes of my ancestors
the fallen of my name
for though they died
to forge this way
their blood this path has set
this way of bone
on which i walk
shall take me onwards yet
