Who owns this land

There is a green mark on it

Mi casa es su casa

Says the man who stole your land

Mi casa es su casa

Says the man who sold your land

Is this tattoo henna or ink

Does it fade?

Who remembers all of the patterns that you’ve made?

Let’s not talk about race

Let’s not talk about class

Let’s not talk about faith

Let’s not talk about caste

The motherland

The fatherland

Tick box otherland

The farmer’s land

His mouth is a crack

From the dought that attacked

Blood is thicker than water

Oil is thicker than blood

Water’s quicker than both

And when you’re hit with a flood

You’ll get caught in the mud

And you won’t be abl to run

Does the ice stich itslf back together

Does the forest stitch itself back together

Does the land stitch itself back together

Do people stitch themselves back together

Higher and higher (we'll turn)

Higher and higher (we'll turn)

Higher and higher

Water and fire

Higher and higher

Water and fire

Higher and higher

Water and fire

A hundred degrees

Will turn into hunger and greed

What the world gonna look like

From under the sea

How did it all get so deep

How did it all get so deep

High and higher

Water and fire

Hifher and higher

Water and fire

Higher and higher

Water and fire

Higher and higher

Water and fire

Higher and higher

Water and fire
