Lyrics
[Verse 1]
There comes a time when all gods must fall
A time to answer the nation's call
No chains can bind us, shackles can't hold
The northern spirit cannot be sold
[Chorus]
This is our home, our life is free
From coast to mountain, we will never bend our knee
We bow our heads to nothing but our past
Our breath is cold, we know our history will last
[Refrain]
We won't bend our necks to any god
We won't bend our necks to any god
[Verse 2]
The north wind whispers in our ears
Old tales of hardship, of hopes and fears
We fought to forge our own destiny
Now we stand strong for the world to see
[Refrain]
We won't bend our necks to any god
We won't bend our necks to any god
[Chorus]
We won't bend our necks to any god
This is the north, spirits run free
From coast to mountain, that is our key
We won't bend our necks to any god
So raise your head as our anthem rings
This is the north, so our people sing
