I am a hawk on a mountain side A crashing wave on a winter's tide The breeze that blows on a tall ship's sail I am the kick of a salmon's tail I'm up above and I'm down below I'm black and white, I'm sand and I'm snow I'm all around and I live within I'm mother earth, the spirit in all living things I'm winter white, oh I'm autumn gold I'm summer's bloom, I'm spring's new soul I'm every season with the birds that sing I'm mother earth, the spirit in all living things But you cut down the trees Your fumes, they choke the breeze You burn the world for oil And you poison the soil So I'll flood the plains I'll drown you in acid rain I'll pour forth a curse And return you back to dust When lightning strikes, well, you'll know I'm near You knew the beauty, now feel the fear Your storm rolls in, well, you better hide I'll make you wish that you weren't alive I am a hawk on a mountain side A crashing wave on a winter's tide The breeze that blows on a tall ship's sail I am the kick of a salmon's tail
