UPWELL

Lyrics

$ELL THE SKY

I wish there was more ceremony
In all the ways that we strive to be right
All those who came before me were wise
We took it all and then stomped on the fire

And we’ll live, and it won’t seem so & we’ll all be gone
It’s just a matter of time
And all the things that keep us alive
They won’t last long

Air, sun, land, sky
It’s just for me and my child
Smog-filled high rise
It’s just for me

They’d kill almost anybody
Inventing ways that aspire to feed life
Don’t come & take my money, all right?
I got my gun and I like to be right

So ya got all the big-wig power, but ya can’t see good
Your eyes are sinking and blind
And all the rules that you now live by
They won’t last long

Air, sun, land, sky
It’s just for me & my child
Smog-filled high rise
It’s just for me, high-priced

You take from the land whatever you need
The earth is not brother, but enemy
And when you have conquered, you only move on
How can you buy or sell the sky?
