Virunga (Whispers)
Teetering at the brink of extinction
Erased from the planet with barely a mention
We walk the road of lust and greed
Deny responsibility or creed
That calls us to stand as the light of the world
Hold it up let the light unfurl
For those who come after will they ever know
The grace and strength of the black rhino
The answer is no at the hand of our own
The answer is no, the answer is no, no.
We are whispers in the wind (Whispers in the wind)
Made of blood and dust (Blood and dust)
We are ancient love (Ancient love)
Rooted rising (Rooted rising up)
And we live in critical pivotal times
So I'm spiting critical pivotal rhymes
It's far past time, far past time,
To give voice to the canary in the coal mine
Is it too late? Have we sealed our fate?
We will certainly pay, we can't get away
The law of man we think we can
But the law of the land is the one that stands
The law of man we think we can but the law of the land is in command
So I'm treating my heart like a box o' matches
Strike it, light it up and see what catches on
From the words in my song
and the rhythm in my roots
to the rattle in my bones my bones
I'm gonna light it up and imma take you with me
Lets set cosmic sail and see what we can see
See cause the light that shines in you it is the light in me
The brighter that you are the brighter I can be
There is nothing new under the sun
Everything we do has already been done
If we can believe in this
Then we really don't know what evolution is
The sun shines out in the puzzle with a piece
The brighter that we burn the more energies release
The bottom of the line, we don't have the time
to hold hurt and anger and pain in our mind
So let it all go, let it back to the source
Alchemize it and reap the rewards
Plant good seeds and we will reap good harvest
Love above all and in all be honest,
Hold love above all love above all
Oh love above all love above all else
We are whispers in the wind (Whispers in the wind)
Made of blood and dust (Blood and dust)
We are ancient love (Ancient love)
Rooted rising (Rooted rising up)
Erased from the planet with barely a mention
We walk the road of lust and greed
Deny responsibility or creed
That calls us to stand as the light of the world
Hold it up let the light unfurl
For those who come after will they ever know
The grace and strength of the black rhino
The answer is no at the hand of our own
The answer is no, the answer is no, no.
We are whispers in the wind (Whispers in the wind)
Made of blood and dust (Blood and dust)
We are ancient love (Ancient love)
Rooted rising (Rooted rising up)
And we live in critical pivotal times

We are ancient love (Ancient love)
Rooted rising (Rooted rising up)
