Nahko And Medicine for the People Great Spirit

Tekst piosenki

Great spirit, I have had it
Bring me back to the nomadic
Way of weaving through the damage
Mindful, stay mindful

Great spirit for my sisters
Let me be a flowing river
Flood the banks the rocks that bind her
Carry, i’ll carry

[Chorus]
Great, great spirit (uh-oh-oh)
Great, great spirit

Great spirit, for my brothers
Let me be a mountain under
Which he climbs to discover, his process
Now thats progress

Great spirit, all that hinders
Tie reminders to my fingers
I must speak to you more often

[Chorus]
Great, great spirit (uh-oh-oh)
Great, great spirit

Great spirit, for my relations
Give them strength to face racism
In every single situation, easy now
Go on speak loud

Great spirit, take me instead
Guide me down the rode of red
Tunkashila, I am saying
Praying

[Chorus]
Great, great spirit (uh-oh-oh)
Great, great spirit

Great spirit, just don’t collapse
Nothing but the earth will last
And i’ll be singing sweetly into the darkness
Now hark this

Great spirit, on my tongue
Be still, be still
The time will come
When everyone will sing all life is sacred
While i’m waiting

Great spirit, my fist is up
Bringing the power to the people
Your reflection of us
Some of your people can’t hear it
The cries of the earth
Some of your people can’t feel it
The way that it hurts
And it hurts, great spirit
And it moves, great spirit
Interconnected in the wreckage
Of a paradigm on its way out
Its way out

Speaking of spiritual lyrical testimonies
The spirit that did resist
Weaving around false prophecies
Spirit directed and selected
With the message i bring
While the ship slowly sinks
I’ve been directed to sing

I’m like a wrecking ball
Breaking down the walls of the past
A minimalist
Livin’ on bliss
With the last of my cash
You’re gonna be justified
With how you treated the land
You’re gonna be by my side
When i stand and demand
A change

Great, great spirit
Great, great spirit

Great, great spirit
