Story behind the song
Mitakuye Oyasin (we all are connected) is a traditional prayer of the Lakota Sioux, often used as a refrain in many prayers and many songs Lakota. It reflects the intrinsic belief of most of the traditions and beliefs of Native Americans, where "everything is connected". All Native American tribes Lakota, Dakota and Nakota, worship and prayer in this particular is used in all the ceremonies and spiritual activities held in Yankton in South Dakota, such as the Native American Church; also it is used as a final prayer at the end of other prayers, after which the sacred food or the sacred pipe is passed and shared among members of the ceremony. In 1940 Joseph Epes Brown, wrote a study on prayer Mitakuye Oyasin and its relevance in Sioux ideology of "Connecting the bottom" and "unity". The opening words, that give the name to the prayer, have become a "cliche" used to greet each other, especially in what concerns the rights of animals, women and in all that you can call "activism" for the Protection of Human Rights.
Lyrics
We're capable of many good things in this world but all of our time is wasted wasted on hatred but there's no one to blame because we refuse to see that we are the same. We are the river we are the wind we are the border and we are the bend we are the mountain we are the sight we are tunnel and we are the light You and me we are one, we are one You and me... The root of pain is deeper deeper than you know we're all just people trying to find out where to go. We get caught up in places or places were from but it doesn't matter because we are one. You and me, we are one we are one The only hard battles live in our shadows. We choose our battles to live in our shadows.2X For the rest of our lives, for the rest of our lives we are one For the rest of our lives we are one. Don't you see that we are one, we are one now...
