In the Anthropocene

What does your freedom mean

What does your freedom mean

In the Anthropocene

All along the water underneath the sea

Can you hear the thousand mile melody

Coming from a distant whale calling from afar

Calling through the ocean channels saying saying

Can you hear me

Hear me

Can you hear me

Hear me

In the Anthropocene

In the Anthropocene

What does your freedom mean

In the Anthropocene

Stumbling through my dreams sailing on the sky

The voices of future beings remind me to feel

Remind me to feel remind me to laugh and cry

The voices of future grandchildren I hear them asking

What were you doing

What have you done

What were you doing

What have you done

What were you doing

What have you done

What were you doing

What have you done

And are you alive

And are you free

Are you free

Are you free

In the Anthropocene

In the Anthropocene

What does your freedom mean

What does your freedom mean

In the Anthropocene

And the ayni come back

And the sewa come back

And the air come back

And the knowledge come back

And the dances come back

And the sweetgrass come back

And the rivers come back

And the laughter come back

And the medicines come back

And the stories come back

And the oceans come back

And the power come back

And the prayers come back

And the coral come back

And the soil come back

And the tenderness come back

Elder Brother said we must remember the old ways

The dreaming of the land and the calling of the rain

We are life itself remembering our ways

We are life itself the dreaming of the sea

We still have time

We still have some time

Yes we still have time

We still have some time

In the Anthropocene

In the Anthropocene

What does your freedom mean

What does your freedom mean

In the Anthropocene

In the Anthropocene
