all things green are not created equal, what brings mean hearts a revival, the green that some die for, the green the mint strives for, there are no green initiatives, only a green economy there is no interest, that will starve the old, their bank cupboards bare, soon they will eat their own flesh. they ayes may have it everywhere so be aware, watch your step there the green that binds our hands, binds our feet, binds our minds, bind us together in defeat. this may sound like a call but really it is one voice with a bad echo, bouncing off the walls of misappropriation and missed understandings stewardship is taking care of what was given, (not earned) he who made stewards of us is going to call (out our names) to find what we did with the Terra entrusted with us (what a rush) embracing the wrong green blinds us as it binds us to a rocky spire, that double edge blade hacking at the legs of God's footstool. the light talk about saving a planet, ****** Janet, what fool's we have been, we blame colour blindness for corporate greed, oh the green that bind us to every wrong to which we own, will now cost us the best spot closest to the throne.

The Green that Binds Us
all things green are not created equal, what brings mean hearts a revival, the green that some die for, the green the mint strives for, there are no green initiatives, only a green economy there is no interest, that will starve the old, their bank cupboards bare, soon they will eat their own flesh. they ayes may have it everywhere so be aware, watch your step there the green that binds our hands, binds our feet, binds our minds, bind us together in defeat. this may sound like a call but really it is one voice with a bad echo, bouncing off the walls of misappropriation and missed understandings stewardship is taking care of what was given, (not earned) he who made stewards of us is going to call (out our names) to find what we did with the Terra entrusted with us (what a rush) embracing the wrong green blinds us as it binds us to a rocky spire, that double edge blade hacking at the legs of God's footstool. the light talk about saving a planet, ****** Janet, what fool's we have been, we blame colour blindness for corporate greed, oh the green that bind us to every wrong to which we own, will now cost us the best spot closest to the throne.
reading allot of green lately, spin doctors are having their way with the celestial virginal idea seniors that have investments are having to spend the capital portion (flesh) just to survive, due to artificially suppressed interest rates, but remember I am not an economist (and the people said that is obvious)
