You were wild and you were free
You were sons of destiny
But the white man came and took your land away
You were fire and you were flame
You were blood inside that vein
How he brought you pain the day he came to stay
I hear you howling through the night
The wind is cold the moons a flame
The cry of sorrow calls the light
And wakes the vengeance in your heart
You were young but you were wise
You were smoke that always rise
How they put you down and spat upon your name
You were snow and you were rain
You would walk without a chain
But he changed your life and gave you all the blame
The sound of thunder breaks the ice
10000 riders side by side
The time has come to end the fight
For their freedom, for their right
Ch:
Cherokee, riding free
You ride into the sky
Where your spirit lives forever
Cherokee, riding free
You ride into the sky
Where all your freedom lasts forever
The fire burns tonight
We all recall the fight
Where blood was shed without a reason
200 years have passed since you stood on shore
And raped your land down to the core
