Lyrics

[Verse 1]
This broken arrow needs heeding
When great white fathers
Your mistress is inequality
[Verse 2]
Rash and reckless
Won't get us to
Where we want to be
Are we emancipators or oppressors of
Lady liberty
[Verse 3]
Have we lost her?
Have we lost her?
Have we lost her?
[Verse 4]
This broken arrow needs heeding
When great white fathers
Our poisoned rivers feed your greed
[Verse 5]
Rash and reckless
Won't get us to
Where we want to be
Ancient song lines
Are singing to wake
Lady liberty
[Verse 6]
She may seem weak
We may be battle weary
Still those song lines sing
From our Great Lakes
To our sacred Badlands
Over sweet prairies
[Verse 7]
No I'm not letting go
Won't be silenced or frozen out
By those who must account
In our Senate
And in the House
[Verse 8]
We the people
Dear judges
Be watching
[Verse 9]
Over you
Over you
[Verse 10]
Have we lost her?
Have we lost her?
[Verse 11]
This broken arrow needs heeding
