Lyrics

What Will We Leave for the 7Th Generation?

Verse One:
What will we leave for the 7th Generation,
By the way that we live and the choices we are making?
What is the way that we honor our ancestors
That gave us life so we can leave upon the earth our blessings?

Chorus:
Walkin’ in the ways of Grandfather with vision I see
And with the wings of the eagle upon my back
A warrior I will be

Verse Two:
What will become of the ones we leave behind us?
Will we leave them a planet of dust?
What will be the songs of our children’s children?
In our hands, we carry their trust.

Chorus:
Walkin’ in the ways of Grandfather with vision I see
And with the wings of the eagle upon my back,
A warrior I will be

Bridge:
Times of the warriors, tell the tale
Dreams of the elders, tell them well
Hope of the Nations, in our heart
Sacred we hold

Chorus:
Walkin’ in the ways of Grandfather with vision I see
And with the wings of the eagle upon my back,
A warrior I will be

Chorus:
Walkin’ in the ways of Grandfather with vision I see
And with the wings of the eagle upon my back,
A warrior I will be, a warrior I will be
A warrior I will be, be…
Will be…
