Dear Grandfather

Dear Grandfather
My people are troubled these days
They put so much faith in things
Things aren’t worth the ways you have to pay for them

And Dear Grandfather
So much of our freedom depends
On how well we’ll pretend we’ll kill more of them
Then they’ll kill of us in the end

And I call to you wishing to serve you well
Is there a way I can heal what keeps us apart
For I am an orphan who’s come home to you in my heart

Dear Grandfather
We tax all the land for what it’s worth
Til it has to make monеy and we build something ugly
An insult to the sky and thе earth

And Dear Grandfather
Our rivers have suffered the worst
And I learned to drink before I learned to think
And still I am dying of thirst

And I call to you wishing to serve you well
Is there a way I can heal what keeps us apart
For I am an orphan who’s come home to you in my heart

And I call to you wishing to serve you well
Is there a way I can heal what keeps us apart
For I am an orphan who’s come home to you in my heart

Dear Grandfather
I've put my faith in a song
Although I’m learning to believe you get what you need
And sometimes you must lay it down

And Dear Grandfather
To your silence I have come
Though the wisest of men say we’ve spit on your hand
And soon your answer will come

And I call to you wishing to serve you well
Is there a way I can heal what keeps us apart
For I am an orphan who’s come home to you in my heart
I am an orphan who's come home to you in my heart
