Piece's of Peace
Wind warrior's chant among proud souls
high in the mountains on grassy knolls
ancient ancestors urging them on
from deep within' their own heart song
The skies ceiling is breakin'
the people have weakened
honor has slipped out the door
empty faces , lifeless traces
human races , unfit , grace no more
Their book's speak of idol worship....
what do they worship now ??
Their book's speak of gluttony ,
mistaken as just overeating............
who live's in excess and obesity ??
Their book's speak of vanity ,
looked at as self conceit.........
but you only want to look better
to make me feel worse about me
so you can feel better about you........
Their book's and belief's have me always a subordinate
I suppose that show's whom is truly ignorant
They say ignorance is controllable , don't teach them the truth.......
but if that is true..........who controll's you ??
broken promises , broken treaties , broken people , broken arrows
now is not the time to feel sorrow ,
our earth mother needs us more than ever ,
to bond our connection they have tried to sever .............
