We possess the knowledge to solve each plight

Food clean energy shelter's light

To the moon the depths no bounds we see

Yet our own power's grip won't set us free

One finger pointed out three point back

Do you see do you track?

Trauma obstructs trust hinders cooperation's spark

Top-down models intermediaries effable dark

Indigenous wisdom from ground we return

Top-down or bottom-up which way do we return?

Dystopian divide and conquer control or quiet little voices light

Heartless capitalism and hungry ghost thrives on mistrust and fright

Trauma blocks trust trust obstructs our way

Top-down bottom-up which will save the day?

Effable and ineffable different games they play

Do we want control or unity to sway?

Consider China's social score

Cash obsolete ledgers store

Pandemic's lesson ledger's might

Canada's truckers frozen in the night

Block passports restrict the way

Control movement home or away

Bureaucracy is the death of intimacy and family spirit's foe

Past bureaucracy at least had fogged out faces behind the desk now just an error's glow

Hyper-connected every action seen

Comprehensive social credit scores dictate the scene

Trauma blocks trust cooperation's plea

Blockchain whispers set us free

Trauma blocks trust trust obstructs our way

Top-down bottom-up which will save the day?

Effable and ineffable different games they play

Do we want control or unity to sway?
