Wolf Cry from Wolf Cry by Jordann Funk

welcome to this madness
where what we've imagined has
become more valued than the earth on which we stand

welcome to this madness
where we've let be a currency
that poisons our rivers and our seas

won't you let the wild wolves of your words escape?
howl like there is no way for us to lose what's at stake
won't you let the wild wolves of your words escape?
howl like there is no way for us to lose our faith

welcome to this madness
where our ancestral way of healing with the land
has been threatened to put the power
in the oppressor's hands

won't you let the wild wolves of your words escape?
howl like there is no way for us to lose what's at stake
won't you let the wild wolves of your words escape?
howl like there is no way for us to lose our faith

and i know you've got the grief of this earth on your shoulders
though the wisdom of us rooted is so much older
than those who have turned their backs on their mother
so together let's shout our truth and move boulders
and tumble down the structures of those who give orders
yet cannot hear the voices of the earth and her creatures
but not for long
for here we stand
howling at the moon
