Story behind the song
The song is from my recently produced album and show of the same name, it is a global satire that directs attention to the imbalance in our priorities, powerful, funny, sad, catylising....
Lyrics
La Selva Sagrada - The Sacred Jungle Here, inside the wire, I knew the father of all legends, he taught me, roaming in valleys through the floor of all space I was singing until my heart was fully given just to be with him, in time I roared for joy, as he overflowed his river’s banks, rich in rain’s bounty and the watching stars and a loving sky were up so high forever, I learned all land was alive and the blessing of his sacred life was in us all Wanderers, lost, maddened by desires, came to claim all lands for their own tribe, hungry for my father’s might, stealing the gifts of his truth, I fought for their souls and lost, to watch them build their smoking deaths, their killing roads under the light of a cold false moon and I knew an end to joy and lay deafened by shadows that tilled so far and raw My people go without, hungry, while bellies burst and banks now own the rivers, and all hearts break with sorrow for the hunger that never ends. Walk with me, I know a journey road Here upon the resting bones of my father’s life, I’ll sing a broken earth, I hear the homelessness of all our people, and I’ll weep the last tears of my father’s blood for the children of the world ©? 2005 Teone Reinthal
