about

There's certainly nothing more pressing in our world today than addressing climate change. There's more than enough worry to go around. With politicos only paying lip service to it or outright denying it, our addiction to fossil fuels, our consumption-throw away-self involved culture, quick profit over long term survival, big money interest groups doing their damnedest to control the narrative, hurricanes, tornadoes, flooding, wildfires, drought, rising sea levels, we've got a situation of epic proportions on our collective hands. As a musician living at ground zero in the digital behemoth empire but raised in a state where oil and coal are king, I see the lines are drawn with no easy solution. Maybe in a small way this song can help reach critical mass.

lyrics

Verse
In the dawn of a future foretold
Winds of change will blow cold
As empires crumble, then fall like dominoes

I can feel trouble brewin', smell it on the wind
I know it's nature, it's like next of kin
No 'ifs' about it, it's only a matter of when

Chorus
As the oceans heave and the tempest roars
Pray to God but keep on rowin' to shore
He'll take the helm but you must handle the oars
No more kickin' that stone
Further down the road
Kickin' that stone down yonder's road

Verse
Choose to believe or choose to ignore
Truth that can't be denied anymore
A reckonings coming, like none have witnessed before

Chorus

Bridge
Let today make a promise
That tomorrow keeps
Respect and protect our Mother Earth
While salvation is still within our reach

Chorus
As the oceans heave and the tempest roars
Pray to God but keep on rowin' to shore
He'll take the helm but you must handle the oars
Through the rising seas of apocalyptic storms
That only a ship of fools can ignore
No more kickin' that stone
No longer kickin' that stone
No more kickin' that stone
Further down the road
Kickin' that stone down yonder's road
Yonder's road
Yonder's road
