From the mountains to the sun
Life has only just begun
We wed this land and pledged
Our souls to meet it's end
Life has only just begun
Here my people roam the earth
In the kingdom of our birth
Where the dust of all our horses hides the sun
We are mighty on the earth, on the earth
You have come to move me
Take me from my ancient home
Land of my fathers I can't leave you now
We will share it with you
No man owns this earth we're on
Now the wheels are rolling
Hear the howling winds of war
It's my destiny to fight and die
But is there no solution
Can we find no other way, Lord, let me stay
Under the endless sky
And the earth below
Here I was born to live
And I will never go, oh no
But we cannot endure
Like the earth and the mountains
Life is not ours to keep
For a new sun is rising
Soon these days shall pass away
For our freedom we must pay
All our words and deeds are carried on the wind
In the ground our bodies lay, here we'll stay
I seen Kansas 3 times during my life, I'm getting ready to pass away and I know my body will be here to stay, kind of like the Crosby Stills Nash and Young's Woodstock we are stardust, we are golden, we are billion year old carbon, we have always been around in one form or another since the beginning of time, and we always will be.
