Heritage of the Natural Realm (single)

by Sojourner

supported by

Caleb Bratcher Sounds like a natural companion to their full-length album Empires of Ash. Beautiful stringed and air instruments combine to make the masterpiece that is now the standard for future Sojourner releases.

NorthwoodsBrewer502 this sounds like kroda's " cry to me river" meets summoning. Hell yes.

Masayume Wonderful cover art, wonderful music!
Waiting for more...

Cultureplastic This album is recorded amazingly. The composition of this song is flawless. I have to hear more from this band.

Spinebrain Hits my sweetpot hard. Another fine addition to my atmospheric pagan metal collection and totally stoked for the debut album.

	1.	Heritage of the Natural Realm 09:30	lyrics
	Around me they circle Emerald tones of past and present Oaken beings stand tall The sturdy mounds of granite surround us all Sapphire glowing above Bask in the glory of our mother She protects us ever still and so we shall reciprocate for without her glory we are but lost souls on a journey to nothingness Oh mother, hear our call We summon you to show us the way For we are lost in the wilderness Within us, we bear the torch The virtues of our matriarch Embedded in our every being To be awakened She is eternal After the eras of our occupation we shall soon wither And you shall so beautifully remain...
