Drop
Seek the old ways
Follow the bear to the rising star
Verse 1
I woke from a dream of the first fire
Old ones carved a story in the stone
Every ember holds a name I don't remember
Still it burns me to the bone
Ash on my hands ash on the river
Somewhere a drum begins to call
Pre-Chorus
So I climb the hill at morning
Watch the sun climb out of the dark
Chorus
Seek the old ways follow the bear
Watch the rising star appear
Seek the old ways follow the bear
Keep the sacred fire burning here
Drop
Seek the old ways
Follow the bear to the rising star
Verse 2
They told me the mother gives us everything
Breath and water root and seed
But the caretaker must answer for the damage
For the hunger and the greed
So I kneel down at the river's edge
And I promise her I'll learn
Pre-Chorus
What the elders meant by blessing
What the gift of flame was for
Chorus
Seek the old ways follow the bear
Watch the rising star appear
Seek the old ways follow the bear
Keep the sacred fire burning here
Breakdown
Wado wado
Wado for the day
Wado wado
Wado for the way
Bridge
Fire in my chest
Fire in my hands
Fire that outlives the man
Pass it on
Pass it on
Never let it die
Guitar Solo
Chorus
Seek the old ways follow the bear
Watch the rising star appear
Seek the old ways follow the bear
Keep the sacred fire burning here
Outro
Wado the bear
Wado the star
Wado the fire
Carry it far
