about

The Fifth Prophet said:
“In the time of the Fifth Fire there will come a time of great struggle that will grip the lives of all native people.

At the waning of this Fire there will come among the people one who holds a promise of great joy and salvation. If the people accept this promise of a new way and abandon the old teachings, then the struggle of the Fifth Fire will be with the people for many generations.

The promise that comes will prove to be a false promise. All those who accept this promise will cause the near destruction of the people."

lyrics

Black robes came
To barter and trade
Promised salvation
Follow their way

Isolate
Indoctrinate
Preaching the mission
The Word shall save

Black book gold cross
Forsaken song
Broken circle
Truth is lost

Planting seeds
Of lies deceit
Who pays the price of
Mistaken belief

Souls of our babes
And their babes to follow
Bearing the cost
Of promises made hollow

Short hair new name
Burdens of shame
Crucified culture
Our lands they claimed

Stolen young
And silent drum
Crippled Spirit
Buried tongue

Souls of our babes
And their babes to follow
Bearing the cost
Of promises made hollow

Souls of our babes
And their babes to follow
Bearing the cost
Of promises made hollow
Of promises made hollow
Of promises made hollow
