Nahko And Medicine For The People - The Wolves Have Returned Lyrics
[Nahko Bear:]
I'm cutting the bad fruit off of my tree to
Lighten my load and grow me tall
Just like my dogma, this fire pit mantra
Covered in ashes, now take me home
To the mystery of nature, so reach for the sun
Spruce tips and cedars now free up them rivers
The salmon will run, no dam can hold
Uniting the nations, it's gonna take some patience
So unzip your sheepskin, the wolves have returned
(Ah-ooooo)
The wolves have returned
(Ah-ooooo)
[Trevor Hall:]
Union of all things, like words on the sky
I read the totems, my ancestors wrote 'em
Now I sit patient, as I wait on the tribe
This runs through all things, like thunder and lightning
Song everlasting, well always I learn
Pull off the old skin, now we are kindred
Open and listen, the wolves have returned
(Ah-ooooo)
The wolves have returned
(Ah-ooooo)
[Xavier Rudd:]
So channel the old ones, with each waking new sun
Walk with your totem, conditions unsaid
Walk from the mystery, a love where you feeling
Rough up protection, a spear in your hand
In light of our dreaming, never meant to be easy
Sometimes there'll be water, sometimes you'll be dry
Footprints in tandem, in this ancient sandstone
Grandmothers reside, and I'll be by your side
Oh, I will be by your side
Grandmother, I will be your side, oh
[Leah Song:]
Part of creation is making a statement
You can't escape it, she's coming for you
If it was up to me, I'd teach that the lonely
This is just part of the courage it takes
Maybe it's the music, it's moving right through us
All of the songs that will outlive me
I'm running the song lines, I'm wrapping my prayer ties
Preserving the old way, my wolf has returned
(Ah-ooooo)
My wolf has returned, oh
(Ah-ooooo)
[Nahko Bear:]
Go on and carry your flag, carry your flag, I got your back
Go on and carry your flag, carry your flag, I got your back
[All:]
Carry your flag, carry your flag
Carry your flag, carry your flag
Carry your flag, carry your flag
Carry your flag, carry your flag
Carry your flag, carry your flag
Carry your flag, carry your flag
Carry your flag, carry your flag
Carry your flag

Nahko And Medicine For The People The Wolves Have Returned Comments
For my this is one of the best NMFTP songs, such powerful lyrics, I love singing it at the top of my voice, feeling the power of the ancestors, the power of connectedness and magic.
I love that the medicine tribe is in this🌌✨🌠🌠
Wow. Just the song to get me going when I am down on my back. "Carry your flag" and so we all will. So much love, gratitude and appreciation from me. Thanks.
The Star seeds are here. Waiting patiently, to be reactivated, and then to remember who we are.
💯 eternity.
The time of the evil one will be short. That's because we are awake . The wolves never left. We just got confused who we are on purpose.
Let us go down and confuse the language.
It's time we all stopped. Hold hands and every human look to the sky. This is one of many dreams I have for humanity. One mind for one sec is the faith of a mustard seed. See baby got the eyes to see so I have those eyes to hear. To me the message is clear. I AM a follower of the Sun. These days u would say The Religion of the Sun.
Follow that light baby. Thank you Nahko. What would be amazing is all the lyrics I have for you Nahko. I can't sing or rap. But I sure as hell I can write.
☀️💛☀️💛🌈🔥
Your awesome
@Hannah Heacock 🤲☀️

Nahko, This fills my spirit with such good energy. Good medicine, thank you for spreading your medicine aross mother earth. You and John Trudell are hands down my absolute favorite artists. 🎶💞
This has by far been my go to song for strength when I stumble, it truly an epic piece of musical medicine. So many lines wisdom, unzip your sheepskin the wolves have returned being by far my favourite. But the end of "Go on and carry your flag,I got your back" gives me chills everytime. Never under estimate the power of a few simple words, so to all who read this far carry your flag, I got your back too. xx
I don't understand the meaning

[Verse 1: Nahko Bear]
I'm cutting the bad fruit off of my tree to
Lighten my load and grow me tall
Just like my dogma, this fire pit mantra
Covered in ashes, now take me home
Shedding my antlers and making up answers
To the mystery of nature, so reach for the sun
Spruce tips and cedars now free up them rivers
The salmon will run, no dam can hold
Uniting the nations, it's gonna take some patience
So unzip your sheepskin, the wolves have returned
(Ah-ooooo)
The wolves have returned
(Ah-ooooo)
[Verse 2: Trevor Hall]
I call to the spirit, brother I hear it
Union of all things, like words on the sky
I read the totems, my ancestors wrote 'em
Now I sit patient, as I wait on the tribe
This runs through all things, like thunder and lightning
Song everlasting, well always I learn
Pull off the old skin, now we are kindred
Open and listen, the wolves have returned
(Ah-ooooo)
The wolves have returned
(Ah-ooooo)
[Verse 3: Xavier Rudd]
So channel the old ones, with each waking new sun
Walk with your totem, conditions unsaid
Walk from the mystery, a love where you feeling
Myrrh for protection, a spear in your hand
In light of our dreaming, never meant to be easy
Sometimes there'll be water, sometimes you'll be dry
Footprints in tandem, in this ancient sandstone
Grandmothers reside, and I'll be by your side
Oh, I will be by your side
Grandmother, I will be your side, oh
[Verse 4: Leah Song]
Part of creation is making a statement
You can't escape it, she's coming for you
If it was up to me, I'd teach that the lonely
This is just part of the courage it takes
Maybe it's the music, it's moving right through us
All of the songs that will outlive me
I'm running the song lines, I'm wrapping my prayer ties
Preserving the old way, my wolf has returned
(Ah-ooooo)
My wolf has returned, oh
(Ah-ooooo)
[Bridge: Nahko Bear]
Go on and carry your flag, carry your flag, I got your back
Go on and carry your flag, carry your flag, I got your back
[Outro: All]
Carry your flag, carry your flag
Carry your flag, carry your flag
Carry your flag, carry your flag
Carry your flag, carry your flag
Carry your flag, carry your flag
Carry your flag, carry your flag
Carry your flag, carry your flag
Carry your flag
