Land (3.37)
Once the God of Sun
Was worshipped by every living soul
Men believed the earth was flat
And feared a hell below
Explorers came in peace
And occupied the land
Divided what was one
With the Bible in their hand
With the Bible in their hand
As I stand beyond alone
I catch the echo in the bone
The land belongs to no man
It is it’s very own
It is it’s very own
War between men
About the soil he claims
What is yours and what is mine
It seems these stories never change
Strange beauty came in my nighttime dream
And Earth the Sacred mother spoke
Consolation filled my heart
I felt peace when I awoke
I felt peace when I awoke
As I stand beyond and alone
I catch the echo in the bone
The land belongs to no man
It is it’s very own
It is it’s very own
Someday a trickster will appear to you
And will put you to the test
Then you’ll finally realize
You’re just a foreigner, a guest
As I stand beyond alone
I catch the echo in the bone
The land belongs to no man
It is it’s very own It is it’s very own
