[Verse 1]
Dear wind of Mississippi, can you call him by name?
I have followed his wings on a sunny day
[Chorus 1]
I like to believe he's the chosen one
I like to believe he's the fallen one
Dead but rising
[Verse 2]
I raise the fist, raise the fist with power and fate
And wishing that his claws will grab onto my hand
[Chorus 1]
I like to believe he's the chosen one
I like to believe he's the fallen one
Dead but rising
[Bridge]
I have been to the end of waters
I have been to the end of earth
I've been over mountains and riding the storms
Dear son, your words have reached me
And for that, I can carry on
I'll guide you in spirit, today I'll be home
[Chorus 2]
I like to believe he's the fallen one
I like to believe he's the chosen one
The rebirth of man heals a bleeding heart
The eagle of kings wears my father's soul
Dead but rising
