I came from the fjord edge, boots on black stone
Salt on my braid and blood in my tone
My shield speaks first, then my mouth cuts in
Old oath on my tongue, let the night begin
I count dead calm like beads on a chain
Three crows circling, calling my name
Hands full of frost, heart hard as pine
If you want my crown, come take what is mine
Hear that drum roll stir the long sleep
Iron in my ribs, wild in my teeth
Raise the raven, raise it high
Raise the raven, let it fly
Steel in my lungs, fire in my veins
Raise the raven, call my name
I walked through smoke with my chin held up
Every old wound turned into luck
They said, "Bend low, I said, "Stand back"
I make a path out of the crack
Wolf in the bones, snow on my skin
I do not beg, I do not fold in
You hear my steps like thunder near
If I came for peace, I would not be here
Hear that drum roll stir the long sleep
Iron in my ribs, wild in my teeth
Raise the raven, raise it high
Raise the raven, let it fly
Steel in my lungs, fire in my veins
Raise the raven, call my name
Odin, watch close
I am the storm
Mothers of winter
Keep me warm
From broken husks to a war-born flame
I step through the ice and I take my place
Raise the raven, raise it high
Raise the raven, let it fly
Steel in my lungs, fire in my veins
Raise the raven, call my name
Raise the raven
Hear me roar (raise the raven)
I am wa
