Bill Miller Raven In The Snow
With the wings of sorrow, I have taken flight Cloaked in the darkness like a thief in the night I have watched the farmer planting in his field And known that what he sows, is there for me to steal I take what I need, never more, never more In the art of survival, there's no rich there's no poor Time passes by, kingdoms come and go I've seen it all, I'm a raven in the snow I have watched the seekers searching for their gold The rape of the land, generations unfold Nations of the world, their rise and their fall I've watched it all, I'm a raven in the snow I have heard the crying, wailing in the wind Empty words and broken promises, time and time again Song of the sparrow, call of the crow Echo in the mountain and the valley's below The scarecrow and the hunter, can't keep me away The winter winds a blowin' couldn't lead me astray You can separate the flock still my colors would show I will stand out, like a raven in the snow
