The Raft

Though my hands are cold

And my mouth is dry

Though this journey is told

There's a mountain high

Though the wind she burns

Like an ageless flame

She will give me strength

So I can move again

Yeah

And though my people may not be many

We are ready for the storm to come

And though my people may not be many

We are ready to be strong as one

And though my people travel lightly

We are willing to fight the fight

And though my people may not be many

We are ready, yeah

We got to find a way, let it be done, let it be done

Too young to keep the faith until the storm has broken

We got to find a way

To rise above the faith and pray

When men come he cross the waters

My man come, he cross the sea, he says

He has no sons, he has no daughters

But he brings with him the sea

And though my people may not be many

We are ready for the storm to come

And though my people may not be many

We are ready to be strong as one

And though my people travel lightly

They're willing to fight the fight

And though my people may not be many

We are ready, yeah

We got to find a way, let it be done, let it be done

Too young to keep the faith until the storm has broken

We got to find a way to rise above the pain

The industry, they'll never find me

Here among the trees

My footsteps will be

Will be all that I leave

Oh lonely island

So rich and fair

And leave your shores

For reasons unclear

Looking for a better life

And you are all that I need

Hey, all that I need
