lyrics

We are made of Earth, why do we think we’re so powerless
Accepting oppression for so long it’s re-written all our songs

Now we sing those lies every day, the truth seems so far away
Truth is we are made of Earth we are power

It’s not okay to say that shits gonna happen either way
That just feeds fearfulness let it starve and feed your courage instead

Cause there’s more to life than submission to authority
And then lie to yourself saying that you’re free when you’re only afraid

In the words of JT we’ve been captured and taught what to believe
Let me tell you the answer right now
It’s all in your head
