Lyrics

Chorus

Ashes of memory drift with smoke on ancient soil

Red earth trembling under boots stained with oil

Children’s songs drowned in the harvest machines’ roar

Who carried the forest walks here no more

Verse 2

Night stretches long for those left beneath burning fields

Ancestral voices cry but the world never yields

Bone and river split, blood runs with the soy and corn

Thunder of progress where the old ones mourn

Pre-Chorus

Drums in the distance, silent call

Trees felled, each spirit falls

Names erased by greed’s demand

Lost nations, broken land

Chorus

Ashes of memory drift with smoke on ancient soil

Red earth trembling under boots stained with oil

Children’s songs drowned in the harvest machines’ roar

Who carried the forest walks here no more
