What have we lost, poisoned, or crushed

Holy rolling hills, were carded to dust

What voices were staffled, slienced, scared, and carried off

With your head in the sand

Who’s after taken, Our wages, and our trust

Our women forsaken, forgotten, and lost

Our Holy rollin hills, our waters, our crops

Are hid in their bills, Pushed through, hushed up, sold off like pawns
