JT Music, TrollfesT - Follow Father lyrics

I follow close to father
But feel so far behind how often do i ponder
What secrets he may hide
I carry mother's ashes
Why can't she see me now
My divine rite of passage
Time to make my father proud

A washed-up God of war
Upon this shore a little farther north
Woke up to another thunderstorm
But this one came knocking on the door
His heart grows heavy and his arms are sore
Gotta be the guilt for all he's done before
So he, cut the cords and dropped the swords
And then the ghost of sparta was reborn
But he's haunted by the past
With his ashen skin all scarred an worn
He's already buried family once
He can barely even bear the thought of more
Cuz the cost of life is one you cannot afford


With a son you've become a role model for
After all he taught him, he doesn't want him
To take up his father's sword
Force himself to ignore the past
Back when revenge was all he swore
But he will defend his only son
If he's gotta make a sacred god a corpse
Better brush up on nordic monster lore
Slaughter trolls, orges and draugr lords
If you need a weapon
Then make a friend with a
Dwarf who's got a forge
When his legend is etched in history
Henceforth it's all in norse
He's still got a lot of strenght
But his spartan rage is not the source
Nor does he draw his power
As the former god of war
He is stronger for his progeny
That's what my father's for
Father's a fighter
But he tries to hide his scars
I'll light the fire
Melt the ice over his heart
I know he still has hope in
The life he planned for me
But as i grow older
Father's all I want to be

When I cross the bifrost
I'm all fired up to ice gods
Heimdall, get out the warning, Gjallahorn
To all nine realms I can fight odds
My father and I much farther we'll climb
Until we are standing atop Jotunheim
And if you think we've peaked
We will leave our mark in the sky
Yo, the road to Ragnarok
Fact- that's the path they're on
Take a blast of dragon breath
Wipe off the ash and laugh it off
Got a head upon your neck?
I got the knack to hack it off
Take the knowledge from it
Use it all to bring my wrath to gods
I'm walking taller than giants
They oughta call me Goliath
I'll face a God in defiance
And strike 'em harder than lightnin'
It's in my blood, when I'm fightin'
Feels like I'm conquering titans
Just like my father's done
I wanna be like him sorry Valhalla it's time
The heavens fall from the sky
I read a rune, it said that you would all die
Because I know my mythology
And no prophecies lie
I'll become stronger than father
And that's a promise of mine
Father's a fighter
But he tries to hide his scars
I'll light the fire
Melt the ice over his heart
I know he still has hope in
The life he planned for me
But as i grow older
Father's all I want to be

Unearth the serpent
Circling the world beneath the sea
And learn his ancient language
Secrets he will speak to me
Break the ouroboros now embrace divinity
Feel the feeble grip of mortal limit's
Now releasing me

Wind and snow won't hold us
This blistering cold gives focus
Me and dad will take an axe to Asgard
After we both overthrow Odin
Got tell Thor better stay home if
He doesn't want Mjollnir to get broken
Consider this a foreboding omen
Because Olympus fell before them
I walk alongside father
My troubles far behind
We hold up one another
The strongest Gods combined

Father's a fighter
But he tries to hide his scars
I'll light the fire
Melt the ice over his heart
I know he still has hope in
The life he planned for me
But as i grow older
Father's all I want to be
