Asked to write a song to support the Beaver Lake Cree, and Crystal Lameman's sovereignty suit, I asked Crystal - ' what do you call the lands we have been told are tar sands? '

lyrics

All of the light
In the world
Won't stop the night

The bird has its flight
Water its course
Spare us some tears for our remorse

**********

Born into words
And into machines
The call of the wild
What could it mean

The hum of the crowd
Calling you to the game
Egging you on, drowning out your name

*************

All alone you might hear it

************"

Look at this man
What could be do
Look at these hands
Belonging to you.

Speak with your heart
hear the refrain
The call of the wild - the sound of your name

***********

All alone you might hear it

************

To what do you belong
To what do you sing

This life, this raven song
Belongs to everything

********

All of the light
In the world
Won't stop the night

The bird has its flight
Water its course
Fill us with tears
Grant us remorse

***********
All alone we might hear it

I know you can feel it

But will you get near it?
