Lyrics
September 19th, 2005
The last day my dad was alive, I think
I woke up on a band room floor
On tour in Vancouver
A knock on the door
I had no cell phone
"Your father is missing"
He was working outside of his lands
North of the Secwepemcúl'ecw
On his way home to my mother
One flat tire
7 kilometers back to camp
One meme7 r skeḿcis
Two skemcesíselt
One meme7 r skeḿcis
Two skemcesíselt
Xyum
I was 21 when you took everything from me
I was 21 when you took everything from me
Everything from me
Many years later skeḿcis visited me
By a cold clear river
The same one I think where my dad called my mom to say
"Hey handsome, I'm gonna see you soon"
Skeḿcis visited me up Paradise
Passed Toby Creek and the pink fireweed
And she said to me
"Me7 kecstin tek stem"
I will give you something
"Me7 kecstin tek stem"
I said, "kuckstétsme"
"Kuckstétsme skeḿcis"
Give it to me
Give it to me, bear
Made my egg split in two
I've got bear kids just like you
Made my egg split in two
I've got bear kids just like you
Bear kids just like you
And that was Grizzly's gift to me
Two cubs for my father
And that was Grizzly's gift to me
Two cubs
For my father
