\n Ancients Call \n <\/span>\n <\/span>\n <\/a>\n \n <\/dt>\n
\n Songwriter: Les Stroud<\/i>\n

I can tell you by the blood I left behind
\nI\u2019m bound to a sacred place by more than blood alone
\nDevine healer she opens the door
\nTo the world of the ancients
\nAnd they cry to me come with us come with us now
\nThe whole earth bleeds and people cry
\nBut the earth can heal and so can I<\/p>\n

Ancients call call me home follow where I go<\/p>\n

And far away across the sands of the kalahari desert
\nThe bushman dance long into the night
\nOvercome by their trances they seek the wisdom of the ancients
\nThey look to the ancesters among the stars
\nAnd they ask for guidance on how to survive
\nFor the whole earth bleeds and people cry
\nBut the earth can heal and so can I<\/p>\n

The ancients call call me home follow where I go<\/p>\n <\/dd>\n <\/div>\n

\n Arctic Mistress \t\t\t \n <\/span>\n <\/span>\n <\/a>\n \n <\/dt>\n
\n Songwriters: Les Stroud, Bryan Potvin<\/i>\n

I wanted to feel wind blow across my face
\nI wanted to see her beautiful northern lights
\nI wanted to know if there was a reason to love
\nA place so pure
\nAnd so full of emptiness<\/p>\n

Breath the arctic air
\nBreath the arctic air\t<\/p>\n

I don\u2019t want to see the end of her frozen world
\nShe shows me her snow and glaciers that melt into tears
\nShe calls me back home and lays like a beauty upon
\nHer bed of ice
\nThis cold arctic mistress<\/p>\n

Breath the arctic air
\nFeel what she shares
\nBreath the arctic air\t<\/p>\n

Breath the arctic air
\nFeel what she shares
\nBreath the arctic air
\nSee how she cares<\/p>\n <\/dd>\n <\/div>\n

\n Into The Wind \n <\/span>\n <\/span>\n <\/a>\n \n <\/dt>\n
\n Songwriter: Les Stroud<\/i>\n

Stand out in the rain
\nfeel the water running down your back
\nStand our from the crowd
\nyou will never get this moment back
\nStand out in the rain<\/p>\n

Sit down on the ground
\nfeel the earth that lies beneath your skin
\nLie down on the ground
\nkiss the earth and all the souls within
\nSit down on the ground<\/p>\n

I\u2019ll run
\nI\u2019ll fly
\nI will certainly kiss the sky
\nI will talk to the rain
\nI will prove I am not insane
\nWhen I die burn me hot
\nblow my ashes into the wind
\nInto into the wind
\ninto into the wind<\/p>\n

Hold me\t in the rain
\nthere\u2019s water running down my back
\nTear drops from the clouds
\nThe earth cries we will feel the rain
\nThe earth dies we will feel the pain<\/p>\n

I\u2019ll run
\nI\u2019ll fly
\nI will certainly kiss the sky
\nI will talk to the rain
\nI will prove I am not insane
\nWhen I die burn me hot
\nblow my ashes into the wind
\nInto into the wind
\ninto into the wind<\/p>\n

Sunset\tsunrise
\nI will greet the day with open eyes
\nHold me in the sun<\/p>\n

I\u2019ll run
\nI\u2019ll fly
\nI will certainly kiss the sky
\nI will talk to the rain
\nI will prove I am not insane
\nWhen I die burn me hot
\nblow my ashes into the wind
\nInto into the wind
\ninto into the wind<\/p>\n <\/dd>\n <\/div>\n

\n Life On Earth \n <\/span>\n <\/span>\n <\/a>\n \n <\/dt>\n
\n Songwriter: Les Stroud<\/i>\n

Life on earth <\/p>\n

This is life on earth this is who we are
\nHow\u2019d it come to this how\u2019d it get this far
\nLook around you now there\u2019s no more wild and free
\nThis is our one last chance to make the bastard see
\nIf we\tpick up arms\t draw our swords
\nOn those who rape the earth we can win this war<\/p>\n

We let it get this far we let it come to this
\nDon’t let them take it all\t don’t let it dissapear
\nFor all the beasts on land and all the fish at sea
\nAnd all the birds in air its time to set them free<\/p>\n

We have a mother earth and we have let her down
\nIts time to build her up regain her crown
\nWe can repair her wounds and clean the air
\nWe can save the sea this earth we share<\/p>\n

We let it get this far we let it come to this
\nThe land we gave away is land we\u2019re gonna miss
\nFor all the beasts on land and all the fish at sea
\nAnd all the birds in air it\u2019s time to set them free<\/p>\n

We let it get this far we let it come to this
\nThis is life on earth
\nThis is who we are
\nThis is life on earth<\/p>\n <\/dd>\n <\/div>\n

\n One Giant Farm (feat. Slash) \n <\/span>\n <\/span>\n <\/a>\n \n <\/dt>\n
\n Songwriters: John Domovic, Ian Goodman<\/i>\n

Stop living blindly
\nHere what I say
\nStand up \tdon’t walk away
\nA revolution is coming soon
\nChildren today can\u2019t be fooled<\/p>\n

I know this world is smaller now
\nDon\u2019t ignore this simple truth
\nThe earth is not one giant farm<\/p>\n

Tell me where now can I roam, I roam
\nTell me where now is my home
\nMy wilderness home
\nWe\u2019re turning every place we know
\nInto one giant farm<\/p>\n

Hunt the dolphins
\nKill the whales
\nBlood stains cover your sails<\/p>\n

Farm the forests
\nFarm the seas
\nWill nothing be left behind<\/p>\n

I know this world is smaller now
\nDon\u2019t ignore this simple truth
\nThe earth is not one giant farm<\/p>\n

Tell me where now can I roam, I roam
\nTell me where now is my home
\nMy wilderness home
\nWe\u2019re turning every place we know
\nInto one giant farm<\/p>\n

So free the dolphins
\nSave the whales
\nAnd breezes will fill up your sails
\nLove the land\tlove the seas
\nLove mother earth wont you please<\/p>\n

I know I\u2019m feeling stronger now
\nHeed the simple truth the earth is not one giant farm<\/p>\n

Tell me where now can I roam, I roam
\nTell me where now is my home
\nMy wilderness home
\nTell me where now can I sail, I sail
\nWe\u2019re turning every place we know
\nInto one giant farm<\/p>\n <\/dd>\n <\/div>\n

\n When It's Gone \n <\/span>\n <\/span>\n <\/a>\n \n <\/dt>\n
\n Songwriter: Les Stroud<\/i>\n

It\u2019s all gonna change
\nThis world you\u2019re so used to
\nWon\u2019t be without pain
\nWhen all your big plans have fallen through<\/p>\n

So I walk on sand
\nI walk on frozen lands
\nI walk in forests
\nWhere I feel home
\nI feel home<\/p>\n

Open your eyes
\nFill your empty souls
\nWe all realize\tthe world is whole<\/p>\n

So I walk on sand
\nI walk on frozen lands
\nWalk in forests
\nWhere I feel home
\nI feel home<\/p>\n

When it\u2019s gone
\nI\u2019ll feel I\u2019ll breathe
\nWhen it\u2019s gone
\nIt\u2019s all on me
\nWhen it\u2019s gone
\nThis is the dark night of my soul
\nWhen it\u2019s gone
\nWhen there is no place I can go
\nWhen it\u2019s gone
\nAs above so below
\nWhen it\u2019s gone
\nAs within so without<\/p>\n

Without
\nWithout
\nWithout<\/p>\n <\/dd>\n <\/div>\n <\/dl>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n<\/div>\n \n\n
