[I. Eyes East]
[Verse 1]
Those that have lived before
They breathe and walk through us
A course relayed
Round our sacred fires
That light up these hillsides
At dawn we shall begin
[Pre-Chorus]
With fear of extinction
We’re pushed to the edge of the ice
Instinctive direction
X2a drive to survive
[Chorus]
All eyes to the east
All eyes to the east
In a vision
Snowflower Elder crossed
[Chorus]
He has seen
Snowflower Elder
He has walked forest green
All eyes to the east
[Verse 2]
Stand tribe to tribe
For we are the lords of the future
True pillars of life
And if we’re to arrive
Through such desperate times
We must stand unified
[Verse 3]
Traces of ancestral faces
Project on a blizzard torn sky
In a game of do or die
Fly clear with the falcon
Perceive through the eagle’s eye
This is exponential ancient overdrive
[Bridge]
No turning back
We must cross the Ice Bridge
Onward to sunrise
In a race against time
[II. Race Against Time]
[Chorus]
All eyes to the east
In a vision
Snowflower Elder crossed
[Chorus]
All eyes to the east
In a vision
Snowflower Elder walked
Lands of green
[Chorus]
Eyes to the east
Snowflower Elder crossed
[Chorus]
Eyes to the east
In a vision
Snowflower Elder walked
