Angry is the Wind

The limbs of the trees are trembling
They are frightened by the sounds
The sounds of gunfire, where I do not come from
My people are native American, we fight only to be free
The deer run, the birds fly in surprise of the unknown
While our tribe and family set campfire for the night
We will scatter and find a place to bed, protected by the wind
Angry is the wind that creeps upon the wounded men, it follows us in sin
The bloodshed, the fear of our children we bare, only they know we care
Nothing takes away the song in our drums that play throughout the day
The wind is our friend, under our feet it lives and loves, as we dance
Away these evil thoughts, and conquer our feelings of mistrust
As we are blood of the earth and the wind and sky are on our side
Angry is the wind only passing by
