LYRICS
Verse 1:
Dear wind of Mississippi can you call him by name
I have followed his wings on a sunny day
Chorus:
I like to believe he's the chosen one
I like to believe he's the fallen one
Dead but rising
Verse 2:
I raise the fist, raise the fist with power and hate
And wishing that his claws will grab on to my hand
Chorus:
I like to believe he's the chosen one
I like to believe he's the fallen one
Dead but rising
Bridge:
I have been to the end of waters
I have been to the end of earth
I've been over mountains and riding the storms
Dear son your words have reached me
And for that I can carry on
I'll guide you in spirit
Today I'll be home
Final Chorus:
I like to believe he's the fallen one
I like to believe he's the chosen one
The rebirth of man heals a bleeding heart
The eagle of kings wears my fathers soul
Dead but rising
.
