My eyes are red with pride and too many days of gazing towards the sun My hair in braids and tied dark with painted face I beat the drum
I've found my prey tonight I slowly take aim as he walks into the light I sense the fear inside I let me arrow fly The ghost that is driving me is a spirit that won't die It's like I've been here before cause I know the battle cry
CHORUS: Alive - I'm gonna survive just to keep my tribe Alive - I've been a warrior throughout time - Alive
And when I dream at night I've got my bow and arrow at my side Just like a hawk in flight Circling for my prize The fury inside of me is a fire burning bright A feeling I can’t contain that's hungry for a fight
CHORUS: Little Bighorn, Mountain Meadows, Wounded Knee
I hear the battle cry As warriors, as hunters, there's no place left to go
CHORUS 3: Alive – I will survive just to keep my tribe Alive - I've been fighting battles throughout time Alive - I'm gonna survive just to keep my tribe Alive - I've been a warrior throughout time
