Lyrics

No One
[2021/07/04]

[A]
No one owns the water,
no one owns the land.
No one owns the oceans,
no one owns the sand.
Yet we live in a house divided,
divided it cannot stand.
No one owns anything,
please understand.

[A]
No one owns the forest,
the mountains, or the seas.
No one owns the valleys,
the fields and streams.
No one owns anything
except their hopes and dreams,
yet fighting for resources 
is reoccurring theme.

[B]
These gifts are givenby our mother,
were given to us for free.
Only from the hands of the greedy,
does the earth require a fee.
Money andthe lust for power
guide our hands from day to day.
Saying we own anything
is a foolish thing to say.

Break

[A]
No one owns the water,
no one owns the land.
No one owns the oceans,
or owns the sand.
With our house divided
it will never, ever stand.
No one owns anything,
 please understand.
