With iron in our blood and water in our eyes
It’s hard to explain why death we cannot defy
Because the metal that’s made us is just rearranged dirt and dust
As we as a society are ****** forward by scientific wanderlust
Perpetual drive to figure out what is human while forgetting to be a person
But the human condition worsens as we evolve to a certain urban version
A claimed advanced people with brain and brawns for power
It becomes easy to forget nature’s showers; the trees and flowers
Never forget your origins. Never forget where you come from
The Earth that made you isn't just a drum for you to beat with your thumb
With iron in our blood and water in our eyes
We lose our elemental touch as the world continues to cry
