[Verse 1]
Snow on my shoulders
Frost in my beard
I have walked these ridges
Year after year
Footprints in blizzards
Vanishing trails
Still my heart keeps marching
Past all the gales
[Pre-Chorus]
Every scar
Is a map I have earned
Every storm
Is a page that I’ve turned
[Chorus]
Let it go
Let the cold winds howl
I break the ice with my roar
Fire in my breath
Steel in my brow
No fear in my soul anymore
Let it go
Let the dark skies pour
I stand where thunder was born
Let it go
Let the cold winds howl
I claim the north forevermore
[Verse 2]
Wolves in the distance
Songs in their cries
Echo my promise
Carved in the ice
Mountains remember
Names that don’t fade
Mine will be spoken
After the grave
[Pre-Chorus]
Every fall
Fed the roots of my rage
Every loss
Built the bones of this age
[Chorus]
Let it go
Let the cold winds howl
I break the ice with my roar
Fire in my breath
Steel in my brow
No fear in my soul anymore
Let it go
Let the dark skies pour
I stand where thunder was born
Let it go
Let the cold winds howl
I claim the north forevermore
[Bridge]
Raise high the hammers (hey!)
Beat on the shields
All that would break me
Bows as it yields
Storm after storm
I rise
I rise
Crowned in the hail
King of the ice
[Breakdown]
[Choir chants under growled lead]
Claim the north
Claim the north
Blood and frost
One oath
One war
[Final Chorus]
Let it go
Let the cold winds howl
I break the ice with my roar
Fire in my breath
Steel in my brow
No fear in my soul anymore
Let it go
Let the dark skies pour
I stand where thunder was born
Let it go
Let the cold winds howl
I claim the north forevermore
I claim the north forevermore
