about

These lyrics were written by kokonda dub and Greenlandic theatre performer and poet Jessie Kleeman. Lyrically it’s a meeting of indigenous mythology and radical street politics. It reflects dub wisdom and inspiration from Bobby Marshall, Dr Das, Not4prophet and jessie. Dub mediation by Prasad Bidaye led us to Christiane D and Soy Sos of Soma Mestizo who blessed us with a beautiful dub mystical interpretation that compliments adrian sherwood's dub wizardy

lyrics

EAGLE SCREAMING: RED SKY ALIGHT

i am a seal woman
but afterwards i become an eagle
with wings and feathers of the suns many colours
in my song i call for the human beings
time for evolution
time for revolution
out of the darkness
comes a light
out of the ashes of the fire
we create the things we desire
indigenous revolution
still searching for solutions
and within the revolution we create another
revolution
hope is my guiding light
even the butterflies live in the artic
