about
The song was inspired by the phrase “Eye for an Eye” Law of retaliation by the Plains Indian Warriors during the 1800’s and our modern day Warriors in the form of protesters.
lyrics
When we stand up tall
Fight for what’s right
Standing side by side
With our fist held high
I got my coup stick here
Against you guns and dog
Eye for an eye, tooth for a tooth. You live and die, that’s the truth baby.
Its my code it’s a way of life baby. Eye for and eye, tooth for a tooth.
When we open our eyes
Ask the right question
Do we breath the same air
Drink the same water
I got my eagle feather
Against you bio war fair
Eye for an eye, tooth for a tooth. You live and die, that’s the truth baby.
Its my code it’s a way of life baby. Eye for and eye, tooth for a tooth.
When we link our arms
And put our foot down
No more fracking land
Or your golf course here
Or your pipe nine there
Against your corporate rule
Eye for an eye, tooth for a tooth. You live and die, that’s the truth baby.
Its my code it’s a way of life baby. Eye for and eye, tooth for a tooth.
