I came out of the mountain My hands were on fire My cradle the ocean bottom, My home became the sky I wasn't born a father, I never knew my son I was born down in the fire, In the storm and the flood I set fire to the earth, And I've come to watch it grow, I walk the world with a black coal heart, And I'm here to make the cold wind blow I rose up from the desert, I walked across the sand Set the earth on fire, With the back of my hands I rode the wind with voices A black and evil tongue, Sees a guilty man set free, And an innocent one hung I set fire to the earth And I've come to watch it grow I walk the world with a black coal heart And I'm here to make the cold wind grow And no one makes it rain, The way you make it rain So I can, I will keep the rain I will keep the rain I fell out of the mountain, My hands were broken still These words my testament, These words my final will I wasn't born a father But now I know my son And this is what he told me While he held a smoking gun I set fire to the earth And I've come to watch it grow I walk the world with a black coal heart And I'm here to make the cold wind blow I walk the world with a black coal heart And I'm here to make the cold wind blow
