Hive Open Mic Week #79 | Colors of the Wind cover by @me2selah

in Hive Open Mic2 years ago

Hello Hive Open Mic Community!

Here I am again for my entry for week 79. I sang Colors of the Wind by Vanessa Williams. I've sang this song many times. And this time I like to share it here in the Hive Open Mic community. I don't know if this song fits for this week's theme. I just love the message of this song. We can't just be proud and arrogant of what we thought we are and what we have. We need to stay humble and down to earth. This song tells us that we have to respect everyone we meet on this earthly existence.

This song is one of the soundtracks of the Disney movie Pocahontas. I am sure you are familiar with the movie and its story. I just love Disney movies and the soundtracks.

So here goes my rendition of the song:

COLORS OF THE WIND
source

[Verse 1]
You think you own whatever land you land on
The earth is just a dead thing you can claim
But I know ev'ry rock and tree and creature
Has a life, has a spirit, has a name
You think the only people who are people
Are the people who look and think like you
But if you walk the footsteps of a stranger
You'll learn things you never knew you never knew

[Chorus]
Have you ever heard the wolf cry to the blue corn moon
Or asked the grinning bobcat why he grinned?
Can you sing with all the voices of the mountain?
Can you paint with all the colors of the wind?
Can you paint with all the colors of the wind?

[Verse 2]
Come run the hidden pine trails of the forest
Come taste the sun-sweet berries of the earth
Come roll in all the riches all around you
And for once, never wonder what they're worth
The rainstorm and the river are my brothers
The heron and the otter are my friends
And we're all connected to each other
In a circle, in a hoop that never ends

[Chorus]
Have you ever heard the wolf cry to the blue corn moon
Or let the eagle tell you there he's been
Can you sing with all the voices of the mountain?
Can you paint with all the colors of the wind?
Can you paint with all the colors of the wind?

[Bridge]
How high does the sycamore grow?
If you cut it down
Then you'll never know

[Chorus]
And you'll never hear the wolf cry to the blue corn moon
For whether we are white or copper-skinned
We need to sing with all the voices of the mountain
Need to paint with all the colors of the wind

[Outro]
You can own the earth and still
All you'll own is earth until
You can paint with all colors of the wind

Thank you for listening. Thank you for Hive Open Mic Community Admin @cabelindsay and all community moderators for this opportunity to share.

Until Next time!

Love,
