Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey
Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey
Two jobs, long nights, till the bills don't change
Work until my bones ache, drowning in the strain
Kids cry loud while the world stays blind
Everyone's fighting battles in their mind
City lights flicker like a dying flame
People smile wide while they hide their shame
I walk through the chaos with a shaking spine
But the old gods' whispers stand your line
Storms of the modern world tear at my skin
But the fire of the ancestors burns within
Calling strength
Strike the fear from my chest tonight
Tire
Give me courage to stand and fight
Fear
Guide my weary spirit home
Through this world where we fear alone
I am not broken, I'm sharpened by pain
Calling strength
Strength of the old ways flows through my veins
Real moments of struggle
Peggyman sickle through these thin walls
Tired hearts clash when the darkness calls
Kids growing wild in a world so loud
Trying to stay straight while the streets stay proud
Boss yells hard for the smallest thing
Phone lights up with the pills they bring
But deep in my blood the drumbeat grows
A warrior spirit no pain can close
When the weight of this life tries to take my breath
I stand like a shield against fear and death
Invocation
Carve through this dirk in me
Hasten God's call
Light the sky with a roaring flame
Tar
Carve truth in a world of shame
Prayer, whisper, hope when the nights grow cold
Guide my steps like the seers of old
I am not broken, I'm sharpened by pain
Strength of the old ways flows through my veins
Old norse invocation
Stigl beckoner
Rise warrior
Elder livid in none
The fire lies within
Andi forna boknar
The spirit of the old ones wake
Ye giv stegi up
I do not give up
Claim, forge, strike
Thunder through my fear tonight
Cryer, stand steady
With iron mind
Prayer, prayer
Guide me through the bitter rain
Strength of the old ways flows through my veins
I rise again through struggle and flame
I rise again, I rise again
