San Jacinto

[00:20.21] Thick cloud, steam rising
[00:23.82] Hissing stone on sweat lodge fire
[00:33.30] Around me, buffalo roam
[00:36.83] Sage in bundle, rub on skin
[00:45.95] Outside, cold air
[00:49.60] Stand, and wait for rising sun
[00:58.72] Red paint, eagle feathers
[01:02.32] Coyote calling, it has begun
[01:12.25] Something moving in, I taste it in my mouth
[01:16.72] And in my heart
[01:25.16] It feels like dying, slow
[01:33.30] Letting go of life
[01:40.47]
[01:54.49] (Hyena wakan tanka)
[01:57.25] (Hyena wakan tanka)
[02:00.78] (Hyena wakan tanka)
[02:03.99] (Hyena wakan tanka)
[02:07.05] Medicine man lead me up though town
[02:12.74] Indian ground, so far down
[02:16.54] Cut up land, each house, a pool
[02:25.94] Kids wearing water wings, drink in cool
[02:28.95] Follow dry river bed, watch Scout and Guides
[02:38.68] Make pow-wow signs
[02:43.64] Past Geronimo's disco
[02:51.51] Sittin' Bull steakhouse, white men dream
[02:54.17] A rattle in the old man's sack, see
[03:04.22] Look at mountain top, keep climbing up
[03:08.32] Way above us the desert snow
[03:17.14] White wind blow
[03:20.26] I hold the line
[03:29.07] The line of strength that pulls me through the fear
[03:33.09] San Jacinto
[03:42.28] I hold the line
[03:48.52] San Jacinto
[03:55.12] The poison bite and darkness take my sight
[03:59.08] I hold the line
[04:04.38] And the tears roll down my swollen cheek
[04:08.50] Think I'm losing it, getting weaker
[04:14.40] I hold the line!
[04:20.57] I hold the line!
[04:27.43] San Jacinto
[04:34.06] Yellow eagle flies down from the sun
[04:38.03] From the sun
[04:43.75] We will walk, on the land
[05:29.35] We will breathe, of the air
[05:35.68] We will drink, from the stream
[05:42.27] We will live, hold the line
[05:55.36] Hold the line
[05:58.57] Hold the line
[06:01.46] Hold the line
[06:13.32]
