lyrics

FUTURE PASSING

It’s an endless job keeping up with the changes,
They happen so fast, the future already past.
I can see we’re racing, which way is not clear,
But the speed of it all, leaves no room for no fear.

I’m stepping, I’m running, I’m trotting along,
With the sounds and the lights just like dropping bombs.
I dodge, I’m crawling, I swim and I fly,
With the dead and the wounded looking up to the sky.

They want explanations, they pray and they rise,
We’ve been fooled once again, but we’ll not compromise.
You promised us safety; we’ve been told we are strong,
But now we are crushed, something went wrong.

Oh mama, oh goddess, we are ready to meet.
Forgive us the arrogance of our shady deals.
O mama won’t you give us one more chance to retreat,
As we drown in your craters, when the waves climb the hills.

It’s the color of speed, it’s the speeding of light,
That creates and destroys in the cycles of life,
We can tune in and surf on the top of it all,
Or we dam it and force it and we’re crushed in a hole.

We’ve been given a chance, we’ve been chosen to live,
We will carry the weight of our ancestor’s deeds.
Can we learn from the past and create a new world?
Can we hear Mother Nature as we’re surfing the web?

We are here for good reason, for a lesson to learn,
We can shove it a side, or some credits we’ll earn.
For the sake of our children and of my planet earth,
Let’s get on with the action, as our hearts give us strength.

Oh mama, oh goddess, we are ready to meet.
Forgive us the arrogance of our shady deals.
O mama won’t you give us one more chance to retreat,
As we drown in your craters, when the waves climb the hills.

O mama won’t you give us one more chance to retreat,
As we drown in your craters, when the waves climb the hills.
