Ancestor Flame

Ancestor Flame

Hoo yaa hey...
Shaa noo taa…
Ancient ones… walk with me…

Ash on my skin, moon in my eye,
Smoke in the wind, spirits rise high.
Feet to the soil, hands to the sky,
I call the thunder, I don’t ask why.

Drum, drum, beat the flame,
Sing the soul, speak the name.
Bones remember, roots reclaim—
I walk the path, I feel no shame.

Stone and feather, claw and leaf,
Every breath is joy and grief.
Rattle speaks, the veil is thin,
The door is open—let them in.

Drum, drum, beat the flame,
Sing the soul, speak the name.
Bones remember, roots reclaim—
I walk the path, I feel no shame.

Hey ya ho, hey ya hey...
Spirits circle, never stray.
Hey ya ho, hey ya hey...
Guide my soul at break of day.

Ancestor flame, burn in my chest,
Guide my steps to sacred rest.
Night will fall, but I remain—
One with fire, wind, and rain.

Shaa noo taa…
Hoo yaa hey...
I am the fire…
I am the way…
