Republic Records - Dead But Rising lyrics

[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
