Rise, Phoenix, Rise
For the martyrs that they've made of us whose sacred bones lay beneath the dust of the land that they lost by their treaties and by pact our spirit grows and will survive and so long as there's one Red man alive we will continue to fight to get our country back.
Oh, Indian peoples, young and old remember that our shamans have foretold we will rise to the skies like the Phoenix
Rise, Phoenix, Rise!
Oh Ancestors we are stubborn and we're proud for all of us we speak our minds out loud for we're united as we've never been before from deep within our souls the fires burn and the time has come for us to take our turn to take back the land for its People once more from the forests, from the plains, from the mountains, once again we will rise to the skies like the Phoenix
Rise, Phoenix, Rise! Phoenix
From the Caribbean to Wounded Knee in just four centuries of history the Europeans have managed to steal our land with their constant greed throughout the years they drove us along our trails of tears to eliminate every red man and woman
Oh! Indian Peoples young and old remember that our shamans have foretold we will rise from the ashes like the Phoenix
Rise, Phoenix, Rise!
We will take up where Chief Joseph quit to prove that was not the end of it we will forge our own treaties, our own pacts like Tecumseh and Geronimo we must stand strong to let them know that we intend to do what's just to get it back from the forests, from the plains, from the mountains, once again
We will rise to the skies like the Phoenix
Rise, Phoenix, Rise!
We will rise from the ashes like the Phoenix
Rise, Phoenix, Rise!
