Rising To The Sun Guide me... hrafn blots godi... guide me... hratn ass... Odhinn Odhinn... Odhinn, hear me... hrafnass, hear me... lend me, Sleipner so I cantride between the worlds tonight I sit on my skin rug under the mesmerizing moon the show falls but I do no freeze this night is calm and the sky is clear and the shadows of my life dance on the trees Spirit, spirit dance with me dance with me tonight spirit, spirit dance with me as he flames we rise and fly The drum is my horse and it rides through the woods we swim on the starsea as one I close my eyes when I hear the wolves the howls of Geri and Freki, guide me! Wolf, wolf howl with me howl with me tonight wolf, wolf howl with me guide me now! The rhythms of the beating of my drum fades away and I see that the wolves stand awaiting for me my naked feel leave no trace in the snow as I run through the woods with the wolves With my drum I ride the wind and travel in what you call dreams I let my spirit rise and fly to nine worlds invisible to our eyes My journey has gone beneath the worlds I praise Odin for lending me sleipner clenching my fists, I scream to the sky my dreamquest has begun! A pagan soul born a thousand years too late I have the spirit of the old and my path is set by fate One of the faithful few I am one of the last who worship pagan gods and claims the heritage of our pagan father's past

Rising he who was subdued committing acts of protest their speech of lave is misconstrued he will put it to the test Rejecting rule that's obsolete their influence won't last he won't accept to taste defeat their power is part of the past Contradiction, false disguise abusing faith of man he has how seen through their lies ignores that he is banned Now... stop looking to the skies no entity of light will help you now... who created who? Did man create god? No palace in heaven no life for eternity these medieval beliefs can't reign eternally? the men in power suffocating wills in a society conformed in their ivory tower arranging master plan for our society deformed Rise now you who were suppressed think with your own minds don't let yourselves be oppressed your own path is what you must find Religion is but a means of manipulating people it's time we face it, we are but animals with brains stuck on this rotating globe of space life is but a random outcome to biological processes as is the human race...
