Thrawsunblat - Here I Am a Fortress lyrics

Artist: Thrawsunblat

album: Great Brunswick Forest


Here I am a fortress
Heavy were my days
Sleep wore my nights
Toil was my bane
Stone was my will
O my allies in blood and in spirit
Together we roam the brimming glades
But on my own I face the wailing winds of languor
So here I am a fortress
Fashioned from the surrounding land
I stand against the winds
Here strength I summon and travel inward
I see into the earth
Its ore I gather, and smelt out in the depths
Of this fortress mine
So when we gather, then I emerge
And I bear for you shimmering ore.
Among the rocks did I lay
Among the roots did I slumber
In the earth did I sleep
I was devoured by the sun
I was washed into the sea
I became naught but purpose
But then I rose and strong I stood
Against the weight I chose to carry
A fortress I am and here I stand
Fashioned I am from this land
Life is not simply to breathe
Nor to break back for others' intents
Life is to grow, to struggle free
To assert one's own unique existence
A fortress of stone is what I am
Fashioned I am from this land
First crumbled down, down
Indiscernible from Earth
