The Legacy
Summoned by the elders on my 7th winter
The greatness I had been born, so it was told
They knew they were not wrong
My task I would perform
They told me of the gods and of stories I had not heard
To greatness I had been born, so it was told
I knew they were not wrong
A grown man I had become
Thus did the meaning unfold
Fearless I'd embrace my death
I would not die like those now old
Nor would the years weary my face
Handed down from father to son
The legacy lives on
Thus did the meaning unfold
Fearless I'd embrace my death
I would not die like those now old
Nor would the years weary my face
Handed down from father to son
The legacy lives on
They returned from far across the sea
Bringing gifts from a land so far away
I was given a sword made of steel and shiny gold
Just like the hammer of the gods
Thus did the meaning unfold
Fearless I'd embrace my death
I would not die like those now old
Nor would the years weary my face
Handed down from father to son
The legacy lives on
The greatness I had been born, so it was told
They knew they were not wrong
My task I would perform
They told me of the gods and of stories I had not heard
To greatness I had been born, so it was told
I knew they were not wrong
A grown man I had become
Thus did the meaning unfold
Fearless I'd embrace my death
I would not die like those now old
Nor would the years weary my face
Handed down from father to son
The legacy lives on
Thus did the meaning unfold
Fearless I'd embrace my death
I would not die like those now old
Nor would the years weary my face
Handed down from father to son
The legacy lives on
They returned from far across the sea
Bringing gifts from a land so far away
I was given a sword made of steel and shiny gold
Just like the hammer of the gods
Thus did the meaning unfold
Fearless I'd embrace my death
I would not die like those now old
Nor would the years weary my face
Handed down from father to son
The legacy lives on
