stars and stripes looked down on his bed [00:54.23]Women brought snow in off the ground to cool his fevered head [01:01.75]When the dust of his wars rolled in from the past [01:05.78]Like storm clouds gathered from time [01:09.79]He knew his day on earth had come to make his peace and die [01:17.41]He raised his hand for mercy surrendered his last breath of life [01:25.16]Then six white horses came into the room and took him to the sky [01:34.40]Where he stood face to face with a mysterious form at the edge of eternity [01:42.84]God said hello red cloud now say what you will to me [01:51.16]Red cloud said [01:53.31]I hope the great heavenly father who looks upon us [01:56.75]Will give all the tribes his blessings [02:00.49]That they may go forth in peace [02:03.35]And live in peace all their days [02:07.75]And that our heavenly father will look upon [02:09.41]Our children as his children [02:12.28]That all tribes may be his children [02:15.91]And as we shake hands today on this broad plain [02:20.28]May we forever live in peace [02:23.35]Now my sun is set my day is done [02:28.74]Just like the book says from the days of old [02:33.38]No cross no crown [02:36.25]At the end of the life at the setting sun [02:40.65]We lay our burdens down [02:44.50]We lay our burdens down [02:54.28]When sitting bull laid down to sleep [02:57.94]He didn't know when the morning come [03:01.91]That red tomahawk and police force [03:05.80]Armed with blazing guns [03:09.69]Would storm into his cabin and drag him from his bed [03:17.38]Throw him in the yard like a mangy dog [03:20.88]Where he was shot and left for dead [03:25.63]Murdered by Mclaughlin's men [03:29.05]He never even had a chance [03:32.44]All because he stayed true to the ghost in [03:35.54]His heart and wouldn't give up the dance [03:40.60]His horse started spinin' and twirling [03:44.40]The world went round and round [03:48.36]Everybody saw sitting bull's body [03:52.27]But his soul was nowhere to be found [03:57.57]He stood face to face with a mysterious form at the edge of eternity [04:05.78]God said hello sitting bull now say what you will to me [04:15.98]You made me an Indian and I thank you [04:20.30]But father now I ask you [04:23.99]What treaty have the Sioux made with the white man [04:26.36]That we have broken [04:28.72]Not one [04:31.60]And what treaty has the white man ever [04:33.17]Made with us that they have kept [04:36.73]Not one [04:40.17]Is it wrong for me to love my own and defend them [04:44.02]Is it wicked for me because my skin red or because I am a Sioux [04:49.52]I gladly died for my people and my country because I am an Indian [05:01.64]Just like the book said from the days of old [05:06.27]No cross no crown [05:09.39]At the end of the life at the setting sun [05:13.50]We lay our burdens down [05:17.39]We lay our burdens down [05:26.68]In a jailhouse in Nebraska [05:30.47]It was on September 5 [05:34.75]Crazy horse was fighting hard to keep himself alive [05:42.18]He screamed just like a panther [05:46.01]At the sight of a guardhouse door [05:50.16]Stabbed in the back by a soldier's dagger [05:53.94]Crazy horse fell down on the floor [05:58.60]He was the last warrior standing [06:01.99]Defending the old way of life [06:05.77]Where mountains sing and ponies run [06:09.62]Like smoke from the sacred pipe [06:13.52]Touch the clouds took his body [06:16.92]Back home to his family [06:21.29]Nobody knows where they laid him down [06:25.08]To set his spirit free [06:30.47]He stood face to face with a mysterious form at the edge of eternity [06:38.90]God said [06:39.88]Hello crazy horse now say what you will to me [06:49.43]Upon suffering beyond suffering the red nation shall rise again [06:56.94]And it shall be a blessing for a sick world [07:01.09]A world filled with broken promises [07:03.73]Selfishness and separations [07:07.48]A world longing for light again [07:11.32]I see a time of seven generations when all of the colors of mankind [07:16.56]Will gather under the sacred tree of life [07:19.33]And the whole earth will become one circle again [07:23.66]And that day there will be those among the Lakota [07:28.59]Who will carry knowledge [07:29.69]And understanding of unity among all living things [07:34.93]And the young white ones will come to those [07:36.99]Of my people and ask for this wisdom [07:41.62]I salute the light within your eyes [07:44.45]For the whole universe dwells [07:47.32]For when you are at that center within you [07:50.72]And I am at that place within me [07:53.36]We shall be one [07:58.80]Three men three warriors [08:02.40]Good and noble chiefs [08:06.34]Prophets to their people [08:09.39]May they rest a while in peace [08:13.05]Their words echo like thunder through the canyons at time [08:21.31]And shine like a flaming arrow in a world in a world [08:31.57]The truth is hard to find [08:37.44]No cross no crown [08:41.09]No cross no crown [08:44.98]No cross no crown
