about

This is the second song on our journey. It is for Spring/Taurus and our feeling of abundance or lack of.

lyrics

Give It Up

I bought some land and the land was living,
I felt its heart beat inside of me,
It fed my soul just what I needed,
Did I own it or did it own me?

Sunrise, sundown, the circles guide me,
Nature’s banquet, the gift is free,
I know you want to give it value,
But land is older than currency.

Give it up, let it go, let the flowers grow and the rivers flow,
Give it up, let it go, it’s not a marketplace,
Just a beautiful show.

We came from the land and the land was giving,
But we learnt to live independently,
We paved paradise and we built our cities,
And put a price tag on all we see.

They’re selling pieces of the moon,
And wonders never cease,
Do you want a piece of the moon even though it’s the wrong kind of peace?

Have we lost our way in this concrete jungle?
A yearning heart grows needy.
The need it grows and the price is rising,
So we file our hearts up for bankruptcy.

Give it up, let it go, let the flowers grow and the rivers flow,
Give it up, let it go, it’s not a marketplace,
Just a beautiful show.
