Band, The ~ The Code Of Handsome Lake


these are the people of the longhouse These are the people that you tried to break These are the people of the pines Who follow the code of handsome lake He drank your poison, swallowed your fire And lay with fever four long years He received a vision so inspired Three messengers with painted faces appeared On the allegheny river at a place called burnt house The code was shared for the very first time By a seneca chief, they call handsome lake With a wounded heart and a sober mind repeat *we are the people of the longhouse We are the people that you couldn't break We are the people of the sacred pipe Who follow the code of handsome lake When the dark moon had come to live in your soul Get in touch with your creator, you are not alone These are the words That he had spoken two hundred years ago And today they still ring true Like they're carved in stone When native life was hurled into the pit By way of the canon, rum, and greed Oh a great fire was burned, to let the smoke rise And show the six nations the code was still alive Way down deep in the bush We oh hi ne oh he oh we oh we we (section repeats 4 times) repeat **repeat more free lyrics

*these are the people of the longhouse
These are the people that you tried to break
These are the people of the pines
Who follow the code of handsome lake

He drank your poison, swallowed your fire
And lay with fever four long years
He received a vision so inspired
Three messengers with painted faces appeared
On the allegheny river at a place called burnt house
The code was shared for the very first time
By a seneca chief, they call handsome lake
With a wounded heart and a sober mind

*repeat

**we are the people of the longhouse
We are the people that you couldn't break
We are the people of the sacred pipe
Who follow the code of handsome lake

When the dark moon had come to live in your soul
Get in touch with your creator, you are not alone
These are the words
That he had spoken two hundred years ago
And today they still ring true
Like they're carved in stone
When native life was hurled into the pit
By way of the canon, rum, and greed
Oh a great fire was burned, to let the smoke rise
And show the six nations the code was still alive

Way down deep in the bush
We oh hi ne oh he oh we oh we we
(section repeats 4 times)

* repeat

Globalized Sounds

Today, beautiful European and American music, an Afrobeats recorded in Lagos, can play in headphones in Tokyo; a South Korean idol group can fill an Argentine stadium to capacity. On Spotify, the playback volume of African music has increased by 500% in five years; K-pop has already transcended the Asian border and become a common language for young people all over the world; Latin music has consistently topped the streaming charts for several consecutive years. The world is getting smaller while the scope of music is expanding.

The Power of the Scene

When the lights dim and the first note is played, strangers become synchronized. The tremor when thousands sing together, and the melody that still echoes after the crowd disperses - this is an experience that no screen can convey. We look forward to the return of large-scale concerts to the essence of music, and we also look forward to small livehouses continuing to nourish the most vibrant soil of music.

Crossing Borders

Music transcends languages - even if you don't understand the lyrics, you can still shed tears or dance. It transcends cultures - the drumbeats of Nigeria and the chants of Iceland coexist under the same sky. It transcends generations - a song from half a century ago can still bring tears to the eyes of today's young people.

We Create Together

The future of global music is not determined by algorithms, nor is it monopolized by a few giants. It is shaped by every person who presses the play button. Maintain your curiosity, step out of your comfort zone. Support independent musicians and attend live performances. Seek connections through music - because we believe that a song can change a day, and music can change the world.
