Sacred Ground Songtext
von Living Colour

How many times must we tell them
Are they never gonna learn

How many times must we tell them
Are they never gonna learn
That this is sacred ground, sacred ground
How many times must we tell them
Are they never gonna learn
That this is sacred ground, sacred ground

For all those trying to make a stand
Fighting to save their, tribal land
For all those trying to make a stand
Dying to protect their tribal land
For all those dying to protect their tribal land

Rainbow warrior, Chico Mendez
All the dissidents that they tried to suppress

How many more martyrs must there be
Will this be our poisoned legacy


How many times must us tell them
Are they never gonna learn
That this is sacred ground, sacred ground
How many times we must tell them
Are they never gonna learn
That this is sacred ground, sacred ground

For those who lie before the bulldozers
And chainsaws
Battling the devouring mega corps
Here they come with their cash draws grins
Vampires, parasites and vermin

How many times must we tell you
Are you never gonna learn
That this is sacred ground, sacred ground
How many times must we tell you
Are you never gonna learn
That this is sacred ground, sacred ground

How many times, how many times
