Nick Mulvey - In The Anthropocene

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

In the anthropocene
What does your freedom mean?
What does your freedom mean
In the anthropocene?

All along the water
Underneath the sea
Can you hear the thousand mile melody?
Comin' from a distant way
You're callin' from afar
Callin' through the ocean channels
Sayin', sayin' can you hear me?
Hear me?
Can you hear me?
Hear me?

(Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah)
In the anthropocene
In the anthropocene
What does your freedom mean
(Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah)
In the anthropocene?

Stumbling through my dreams
Sailing on the sky
The voices of future beings
Remind me to feel
Remind me to feel
Remind me to laugh and cry
The voices of future grandchildren
I hear them asking, “What were you doing?
What have you done?
What were you doing?
What have you done?
What were you doing?
What have you done?
What were you doing?
And are you alive?
And are you free?
Are you free?
Are you free?”

(Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah)
In the anthropocene
In the anthropocene
What does your freedom mean?
What does your freedom mean
(Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah)
In the anthropocene?

And the Ai Ni come back
And the Sehwa come back
And the Aya come back
And the knowledge come back
And the dances come back
And the sweet grass come back
And the rivers come back
And the laughter come back
And the medicines come back
And the stories come back
And the power come back
And the oceans come back
And the prayers come back
And the coral come back
And the soil come back
And the tenderness come back

Elder brother said we must remember the old ways
The dreamin' of the land
And the calling of the rain
We are life itself
Remembering our way
We are life itself
The dreaming of the sea
We still have time
We still have some time
Yes, we still have time
We still have some time
