[Intro]
Ancient whispers in the wind
Prayer beads scattered in the sand
Grandfather's secrets worn so thin
Like threads unraveling in my hands
[Verse 1]
Down in the medina's shade
Where merchants trade our souls away
Sacred strings for foreign coin
My teacher taught me how to play
But now he sells our history
One instrument at a time
Can't blame a man for staying alive
When hunger gnaws deep inside
[Chorus]
Prayer threads, prayer threads
Holding on by sacred bones
Prayer threads, prayer threads
Desert wisdom carved in stone
My father's father's holy song
Fading like the setting sun
Tell me where we all went wrong
As the golden age comes undone
[Verse 2]
Found that old rug in the dark
Hidden treasures falling apart
Every pattern tells a tale
Of desert storms and caravans
Now the tourists come and go
Taking pieces of our show
But they'll never understand
The spirit flowing through this land
[Bridge]
Between the dunes and modern days
We dance on shifting sands
Trying to keep our ways
With weathered, calloused hands
[Chorus]
Prayer threads, prayer threads
Holding on by sacred bones
Prayer threads, prayer threads
Desert wisdom carved in stone
My father's father's holy song
Fading like the setting sun
Tell me where we all went wrong
As the golden age comes undone
[Outro]
Ancient whispers fade away
Like footprints in the sand
But in these bones, we'll always stay
Children of this sacred land
