Orenda

Orenda is the Iroquois name for a certain spiritual energy inherent in people and their environment. It is an "extraordinary invisible power believed by the Iroquois Native Americans to pervade in varying degrees in all animate and inanimate natural objects as a transmissible spiritual energy capable of being exerted according to the will of its possessor." Orenda is a collective power of nature's energies through the living energy of all natural objects: animate and inanimate.Anthropologist J. N. B. Hewitt notes intrinsic similarities between the Iroquoian concept of Orenda and that of the Siouxan wakan or mahopa; the Algonquin manitowi, and the pokunt of the Shoshone.

Bite your lip 
And keep your chin up 
Repeat these words after me, 
You haven't had enough 
I know it's hard to know you'll end up in failure 
But the only way to force change is for you to push harder 

Some say the ashes are coming 
Some say the dreadnaught is here 
Trumped and hung over head 
Were paralyzed by fear 
We've torn our lands, bleached our seas 
To keep the status quo so forever lives the American dream 
So buy more, spend more, forget more 
Distract yourself from our failure so you can sleep more 
Busy on the path to the furthest grave 
But the writing on your headstone said your life meant nothing. 

We are our enemy 

He said 
""So take my hand and I will show you how to disappear 
I'll take your name, change your life and wash away your fears 
It's not enough I'll take your voice and mind 
Ban the pauper for the violence and the identity crime 

So take my hand and I will show you how to disappear 
Blame the poor for the violence and crimes I made 
I swear I'll never get enough of all the lives I’ve bled 
It's not for you but I've made this life great again"" 

And in life and liberty 
we are the enemy 
A death of civility 
We are the enemy 

We're Slaves 
 to cold hearts and war drums 
We face a void, but the void speaks for no one. 
Rage, rage against the death of discourse 
We need to get ourselves back to the source 
Our hope our pride 
Is there anything left for our lives? 
Whole without a semblance of shame 
Covered by shadows of the heads we hang 
Heads we hang 

And in life and liberty 
You are the death of sanity 
And in life and liberty 
We are the enemy 
A death of civility 
We are the enemy
