Borrowing
by John Batdorf and Michael McLean (c) 1994

We have not inherited the earth
From our parents when they gave us birth
We are borrowing the sea and land
From our children and their children's children
There's some wisdom engraved in stone
That stands alone on the road not taken.
It's a voice crying from the dust
To all of us in every generation
And it begs us to reconsider
The debt we owe the future
What every borrower should know, oh oh
We have not inherited the earth
From our parents when they gave us birth
We are borrowing the sea and land
From our children and their children's children
Unborn spirit's lay a claim
To the earth that we have borrowed from them
Masquerading as human need
Is all the greed that's fueling the fire
Of American dreams we've dreamed,
That somehow seem so uninspired
In the making of all the choices
who champion's the voices
Of those the earth is borrowed from.....
We have not inherited the earth
From our parents when they gave us birth
We are borrowing the sea and land
From our children and their children's children
Unborn spirit's lay a claim
To the earth that we have borrowed from them
We have not inherited the earth
From our parents when they gave us birth
We are borrowing the sea and land
From our children and their children's children
Unborn spirit's lay a claim
To the earth that we have borrowed from them.
