[ti: Mine Is the Mountain]
[length: 05:40]
[00:10.34]Mine is the power and mine is the glory
[00:15.41]Mine is the mountain up which you tread
[00:20.45]Give me bold questions, give me good reason
[00:25.48]Tell me you love me, fear all I have said
[00:31.44]
[00:34.33]Don’t imitate me, don’t forsake me
[00:39.36]In images silver, in idols of gold
[00:44.65]Don’t make me jealous, don’t make me angry
[00:49.79]Don’t ever leave me out in the cold
[00:53.92](Mine is the mountain)
[01:03.93]
[01:08.66]Bring all your pomp
[01:10.67]Precious jewels and your finеry
[01:13.65]Build me safe haven for tablеts of stone
[01:18.46]To live through the ages to scold and to guide you
[01:23.50]Threaten, cajole you, and cut to the bone
[01:28.17](Mine in the mountain)
[01:30.44]
[01:37.43]I’m no pushover lamb, no gentle provider
[01:42.50]Vengeance, retribution are my middle names
[01:47.47]I can make a cadaver of your women, your firstborn
[01:52.75]With a snap of a finger, of salt and of flame
[01:59.10]
[03:25.52]Matty and Lucas may bring something softer
[03:30.50]Gentle in word and gentle in deed
[03:35.45]But you who ignore these things that are written
[03:40.21]Will define the story your children will read
[03:47.04]
[03:51.77](Mine is the mountain)
[03:59.81]Bring all your pomp
[04:01.86]Precious jewels and your finery
[04:04.88]Build me safe haven for tablets of stone
[04:09.69]To live through the ages to scold and to guide you
[04:14.67]Threaten cajole you and cut to the bone
[04:21.32]
[04:24.70](Mine is the mountain)
[04:28.54]So think of me fondly in spite of the raging
[04:33.81]The ranting, the raving, the threatening tone
[04:38.71]For I am the father, the power and the glory
[04:43.98]And now, for God’s sake, kindly leave me alone
[04:50.51]
[04:56.00](Mine is the mountain)
