Oh Mother Earth. We’ve been so foolish.
Oh Father, Sky, We have been so blind.
Oh creatures great and small we have been so unkind
Oh Mother, Father, God, won’t you forgive us.
And Oh the Waters. You once ran free.
We’ve tainted and damned you.
Poisoned you with our debris.
We drill off shore and we get oceans of grease.
Oh Mother, Father, God won’t you forgive us.
And Oh the Trees. We’ve cut you at your roots.
We’ve force fed you toxins. Robbed you of your sacred fruit.
We’ve paved it all saying progress is good.
Oh, Mother, Father, God won’t you forgive us.
And Oh the Air, we simply do not see.
We crave our objects so we build our factories.
Oh won’t you please forgive humanity.
Mother, Father, God, won’t you forgive us.
And Oh the Fire that burns within us.
And Oh the Fire that can transform us.
One careless cigarette can take our forests.
Oh Mother, Father God won’t you forgive us.
Oh Mother Earth. We’ve been so foolish.
Oh Father, Sky, We have been so blind.
Oh creatures great and small we have been so unkind
Oh Mother, Father, God, won’t you forgive us.

I walked away from playing music ten years ago, disgusted with music and myself. SJ Tucker's songs have played no small part in bringing me back in a truly strange yet beautiful way. The blisters on my fingers and the gloom in my heart are nearly healed. I sat down my new acoustic guitar to write a comment about some heavy medicine and now I'm going to get back to my therapy. I can't thank you enough SJ! Keep up the good work! roddylloyd
