Nahko
Backbone
[Verse 1]
When we walk within the canyons
We feel the presence there
And the wind becomes my blanket
I can feel you everywhere
So you hold me in sweet darkness
Where I burn my light
I can hear your thunder calling, clapping
It has kept me up all night

[Chorus]
I heard "be fierce, noble, hold your arrow true"
I heard "be bold, graceful, you do you"
And I will too
I will too
I'll stand by you
I'll stand by you
Through and through, I got you

[Verse 2]
I'm an architect in my moment
I'm drafting from the ground
Cause all my archetypes have been woven
Into a perfect sound
So excuse me, I'm just learning
Harmony in the Tao
Excuse me, I'm just building
My perfect kingdom now
[Chorus]
I heard "be fierce, noble, hold your arrow true"
I heard "be bold, graceful, you do you"
And I will too
I will too
I'll stand by you
I'll stand by you
Through and through, I got you

[Verse 3]
I will raise my hands to the sky
I will rise with the coming tides
And I will learn with the wolves all night
And I will always stand by your side
We will change it from the inside
I've known this my whole life
We will navigate the chaos
And learn to read the signs
And I will sit alone on mountains
And breathe the name of all
I will stand by you in reason
A comrade in the cause

[Chorus]
I heard "be fierce, noble, hold your arrow true"
I heard "be bold, graceful, you do you"
And I will too
I will too
I'll stand by you
I'll stand by you
I'll stand by you
I'll stand by you
Through and through, I got you
