Echoes of Nature at Peace (but) No More


Will They Ever....

Will they ever find a missing Indian alive
Not if the goons and feds can help it
For this they strive

There is still so much belief
In the saying, "The only good Indian is a dead Indian"
And still we're filled with grief

These last two brothers
Wilson Black Elk Jr.and Ronald Hard Heart, are not the only ones
My friends there are many others

Not to mention those not investigate
Of those the numbers mount
Its hard to understand why we are so hated

But let us stand together
And know they died not in vain
Keep on searching regardless of the weather

All will come out one day we know
We will be the ones from then
In the knowledge of our Ancestors
To help all grow

Let us strive to find the facts
Not with warring
But with good acts

Shed your tears, then grieve no more
For with the Eagle
Their souls do soar
