I'm cutting the bad fruit off of my tree to
Lighten my load and grow me tall
Just like my dogma this fire pit mantra
Covered in ashes now take me home
Shedding my antlers and making up answers
To the mystery of nature so reach for the sun
Spruce tips and cedars now free up them rivers
The salmon will run no dam can hold
Uniting the nations it's gonna take some patience
So unzip your sheepskin the wolves have returned
Ah ooooo
The wolves have returned
Ah ooooo
I call to the spirit brother I hear it
Union of all things like words on the sky
I read the totems my ancestors wrote 'em
Now I sit patient as I wait on the tribe
This runs through all things like thunder and lightning
Song everlasting well always I learn
Pull off the old skin now we are kindred
Open and listen the wolves have returned
Ah ooooo
The wolves have returned
Ah ooooo
So channel the old ones with each waking new sun
Walk with your totem conditions unsaid
Walk from the mystery a love where you feeling
Myrrh for protection a spear in your hand
In light of our dreaming never meant to be easy
Sometimes there'll be water sometimes you'll be dry
Footprints in tandem in this ancient sandstone
Grandmothers reside and I'll be by your side
Oh I will be by your side
Grandmother
I will be by your side
Oh
Part of creation is making a statement
You can't escape it she's coming for you
If it was up to me I'd teach that the lonely
This is just part of the courage it takes
Maybe it's the music it's moving right through us
All of the songs that will outlive me
I'm running the song lines I'm wrapping my prayer ties
Preserving the old way my wolf has returned
Ah ooooo
My wolf has returned oh
Ah ooooo
