00:02You
00:31I was on board in the storm of youth
00:40A blade that sang for blood and truth
00:48Hammered hard on the anvil of pride
00:55I cut down men and swallowed the tide
01:03But the gods looked down with Odin's one eye
01:12And whispered, Lord, this steel must die
01:21Oh, break me, oh, father, bend my will
01:29Melt this proud heart in the fire steel
01:37In the dark of the forge where the sparks fly
01:42I bow my head and learn how to die
01:53From the ashes I rise, not the same man I was
01:58Humble and broken, yet stronger because
02:01By the blood and the bone, by the wind and the wave
02:05I am becoming what the knowns have engraved
02:17I sailed the whale road with fury and flames
02:25Chained my own shadow and gave it a name
02:33But every victory tasted of rust
02:37Every crown of gold turned heavy with dust
02:42In the long haul of silence on cold winter stone
02:46I laid down my axe and found I wasn't alone
02:51Oh, break me, oh, father, bend my will
02:56Bend my will
02:58Melt this proud heart in the fire steel
03:04In the fire steel
03:06In the dark of the forge where the sparks fly high
03:12I bow my head and learn how to die
03:22From the ashes I rise, not the same man I was
03:27Humble and broken, yet stronger because
03:31By the blood and the bone, by the wind and the wave
03:35I am becoming what the knowns have engraved
03:47No more berserk rage
03:50No more hollow roar
03:53Only the quiet voice
03:58That says, be more
04:01I am not the hero
04:06I am not the slain
04:10I am the process
04:14I am the pain
04:19I am the transformation in between
04:40So shape me, oh, father
04:44Take what's wild
04:46Turn this old wolf to a wiser child
04:50Let every star be a story told
04:53Let every fall turn my iron to gold
04:57Humble I stand where the old gods see
05:01A new man rising, finally free
05:05By the blood and the bone
05:07By the wind and the wave
05:09I am becoming
05:11What you have engraved
05:14What you have engraved
05:17Process
05:21Humility
05:24Transformation
05:25I surrender
05:27I become
05:29Scowl to the fire
05:31A man to the flame
05:49To write
05:49A new world
05:49Where you'll find
05:50Maybe
05:50Yes
05:50There
