Intro (Anansi)
Memory is a fading star
Without stories to keep our light
History grows darker than the blank stare space
The spider draws its web across time to catch the fading points
Before we descend into forgetfulness
We are grand
But only if we remember our grandeur
Ago agolona
Ago agolona
Ago agolona
We are powerful
But only if we remember our power
We are beautiful
But only if stories of our beauty are told
How important then is the one who weaves words
That by themselves mean little
But together carry nations
Across oceans
Over continents
Through time
The spider weaves webs to catch our light
The glory of kings and queens retold
The triumphs of warriors reborn
Through stories lost beauty can be regained in an instant
For those who believe
But you who have forgotten
Are you brave enough
To listen?
Without stories to keep our light
History grows darker than the blank stare space
The spider draws its web across time to catch the fading points
Before we descend into forgetfulness
We are grand
But only if we remember our grandeur
Ago agolona
Ago agolona
Ago agolona
We are powerful
But only if we remember our power
We are beautiful
But only if stories of our beauty are told
How important then is the one who weaves words
That by themselves mean little
But together carry nations
Across oceans
Over continents
Through time
The spider weaves webs to catch our light
The glory of kings and queens retold
The triumphs of warriors reborn
Through stories lost beauty can be regained in an instant
For those who believe
But you who have forgotten
Are you brave enough
To listen?
