get to the high ground

a.i. assisted demo production of original songs, written, structured, and © by richard flynn murrey. the songwriting is still mine… creativity didn’t come from software. tools evolve—songwriting doesn’t. a.i. helps me produce demos efficiently and much cheaper! (especially after my stroke). however it’s made… the song either connects or it doesn’t. get to the high ground - ©Richard Murrey Morning on the shoreline, fishermen at seaChildren chasing seabirds underneath the coconut treesThen the old man starts listening to a radio on the dockSays, "Something's moving way out there..."Everybody watch the clock When the ocean walks away... don't stand there looking roundThat's Mother Nature talking... better head for higher ground Get to the high ground... don't wait aroundWhether it's the mountain... or the sweet herb you've foundLift your heart, lift your soul, lift your feet off the sandGet to the high ground... Jah's got a better plan Brother says, I'm climbing... Sister says, Me too...One got hiking boots... one rolled a bamboo tube... When the ocean walks away... don't stand there looking roundThat's Mother Nature talking... better head for higher ground chorus repeat Remember the drills we had in school The respect they taught us of the ocean Now the time is ripe for the reality As mother sea must share her motion chorus repeat High ground? Already there, mon When the waters rise... Lift your eyes... Get to the high ground...
