Rudd, Xavier - Sky To Ground Lyrics






I've seen babies begging, scratching round for food to eat
I've seen a big old tree still standing tall, two thousand years healthy
I've seen the oldest woman shaking her head at what went wrong
I drank water from a stream so fresh you couldn't see the water at all.
At all.

I've seen streets so dirty, there is hardly a place to walk and
I've fallen asleep to our bush birds, singing the prettiest song
I've seen all of the pain and all the murder on tv and
I've stood free on solid waves, mother earth's greatest treats

Oh peace on earth that I know
Sending us out to war my friend
This place my home from sky to ground
See the universe connected from the inside

I've seen people screaming at the car that cut them off
And I've felt the cleanest mountain air cleaning out my nose
I've seen fast food chains nearly every place that I go
I've had a belly full of the freshest fish speared with a single throw

And I sing
Oh peace on earth that I know
Sending us out to war my friend
This place my home from sky to ground
See the universe connected from the inside

There's been changes in weather like never before
Changing the winter and summer and spring
Many many people still listening to the earth and her song
So is sing it strong

Oh peace on earth that I know
Sending us out to war my friend
This place my home from sky to ground
See the universe connected from the inside

In theses times of trouble in these times of war
In theses times when our planet is it getting to warm
It makes me simple to take a look around
Of this earth and this earth we can be so proud

    One of the most beautiful songs showing the saddening amount of duality in the world but remains on the middle path of the two, just joy! A genuine spirit he is!

  7. C.... L....

    xavier rudd is one of the shittest humans alive. i wouldnt even class him as human due to his lack of compassion and respect

    when auto tune is in the artists throat that is real talent

    T.... ....

    There;s no autotune.. there's only an echo effect.

    T.... ....

    @Museful You're both saying the same thing.

    T.... ....

    @Michael Aleo it was an attempt at a witty comment 

    T.... ....

    I'm sorry, I wasn't trying to be witty. I thought autotune had to do with morphing the voice itself.
    I was ignorant on what it really meant.
    Didn't mean to appear rude.

    T.... ....

    @Museful quite alright sir no apology necessary

    @Deputywelld
    yeap, you're totally right, but forgive him for not knowing. i'm pretty sure you were just in a bad mood when you replied to his comment or went through the same situation some time ago, coz otherwise you wouldn't have been so aggresive =]

  47. D.... M....

    @cdog251983 your wrong its not just him you fool
    uncle tio moloantoa is on base
    and andie nqubezelo is on drums
    i just fucking hate it when people shit on the little guys
    and i'm not taking anything away from the big XR
    he's fucking savage
    its just people always make little of guys who are essential in the big picture....

  48. k.... ....

    @killercreek450 ah it kinda seemed relevant, nvm

  49. D.... P....

    @killercreek450
    sorry dude, but i don't understand what's this reply to...

    @sssPUNKyyy man i think alot of people are afriad to search through themselves, through innerspace. theyd ratther blame their shit on other people

  51. s.... ....

    he's coming to Portugal in November but i can't go.. sucks -.-'
    i love is music ... he puts so much soul in what he does

  52. D.... P....

    @CharlieODonovan
    lol...yeah, thanks...i really messed this up alright...
    there were all the lyrics but i've put them in the wrong order for one reason that i can't really understand...i think i was drunk or high at that time...or both =]

  53. D.... P....

    @cdog251983
    he's got a lot of talent and soul...

  54. D.... P....

  60. w.... r....

    Powerfull song !!!!!!!! amazing poet very talented........

  61. D.... P....

    @djreedoo87
    make a facebook group or something and get people to join. this way maybe you'll have his attention and he'll come to munich ;]

  62. D.... P....

    @BonJerg1
    lucky you ;]

  63. D.... P....

    @Mairesa
    ytube must be doing this because of its policy against music piracy, but anyway you can find the music somewhere else. so then what's the point?! =]
    but it also might be because of the fact that some people have a poor internet connection so not everyone can afford to watch videos in HD quality
    anyway, i just need to find some software to upload HD videos ;]

  64. M.... ....

    thanks for the reply. I have the CD - it's awesome - and would have liked to share it however youtube does the artist a disservice if it transforms the audio like this. I wish XR would put up some official videos ... be well:)

  65. D.... P....

    @Mairesa
    unfortunately i don't have any software to make a HD video. i have this song in VBR 213 kbps mp3 quality. i think that when uploading a 480p video, youtube automatically transforms the audio part to a 128 or 192 kbps equivalent audio format...something like that...
    so i you need it in good quality just ask me or go to demonoid or find on any other site or just buy it. you have a whole lot of variants to choose from ;]

  66. M.... ....

    the poor recording quality does not do this song justice ....
