Lyrics
Home
I needed a home, you gave my land away.
I took off into the air, and landed in your oil.
I caught you a fish, and planned you a party.
You raided my nest, and ate it unseen.
I taught you to fish, you then broke my pole.
You cut and gutted me, hung me over a fire.
You do me wrong.
Forgot me and I burned to a crisp, and burned
the fire pit, and the forest we once shared.
Our home is gone now, we shouldn’t eat fish.
I need a home now, you can plant a tree.
But you can’t live there, and you can’t cut it down.
Don’t try to climb it, you will fall to the ground.
You are wrong.
If I needed a home, could I perch on your porch?
If I took off into the air, would you admire or fire?
If I gave you a plant, and made you a meal.
Would you accept and make me one in return?
If I taught you to make food, with seed, sun, and soil.
Would you learn to plant, to harvest, and share?
I wish you well but I wish that you would change.
and still we go.
