Ancestral Weight Lyrics

I feel the weight
Of ancestors on my shoulders
Like their doom depends
On the choices that I make.
Observations from far horizons oppress me
I cannot bear these expectations – set me free!

One hundred generations,
A hundred thousand souls
Long for continuation...
Can you feel them watching you?
Can you feel them watching YOU?

Heavy is the burden
Of forlorn hopes and forgone dreams
Passed down to me
Through the genes of time.
A waterfall echoes through the ages (deafens me)
I can almost feel their exhortations – leave me be!

One hundred generations,
A hundred thousand souls
Long for continuation...
Can you feel them watching you?
Can you feel them watching YOU?

I feel this weight
Ancestral weight
Crushing me.
