(No mercy, no mercy) The riptide greets the water's edge, he says it's good to meet again The sun is out, it protects us, it lets the fish in my belly swim Five thousand years ago, we danced with the comets from outer space It was our nature them, indigenous, and now I feel out of place (No mercy, no mercy) For the goods that grace us all, we destroy what's in our path (No mercy, no mercy) Understanding of the purpose of the nature of the world And then man came, we welcomed him with plants and food to eat Tranquil rivers and tall pines for shade now all but obsolete Brother dear would beautify the woods amongst us all And now he runs and hides from the hunter To keep his head from the hunter's wall (No mercy, no mercy) For the goods that grace us all, we destroy what's in our path Aaaahh (No mercy), aaaahh (No mercy) Understanding of the purpose of the nature of the world The gravitational pull Can never be wrong But to live all as one Has taken too long Mother Earth And deservedly so Has given birth to us all And there's nothing to glow But greed and corruption, violence, pollution Hate, a disease, a new constitution We need to gather 'round a global huddle Give praise to the ones that we lost in the struggle And spread the love, yo, spread the love Spread the love, spread the love, spread the love (No mercy, no mercy) For the goods that grace us all, we destroy what's at our path Aaaahh (No mercy), oooooh (No mercy) Understanding of the purpose of the nature of the world And now the skies are covered up From a blue to a shade of gray A man in red many moons ago Had a vision it would come someday Five thousand years ago, the earth we now deny Was the greatest canvas ever painted Under the eastern sky (No mercy, no mercy) For the goods that grace us all, we destroy what's at our path Aaaahh (No mercy), true (No mercy) Understanding of the purpose of the nature of the world (No mercy ,no mercy) For the creatures and the fish, and the people of the sun Aaaahh (No mercy), aaaahh (No mercy) For the concrete and the chemicals, k**s the nature in us all k**s the nature in us all k**s the nature in us all
