Name: Mary
Duration: P00H02M51S
Description: Last year after playing a street music set, a man asked me to make a song for his young daughter 'Mary'. I said I will release a song called 'Mary' this time next year. It's now 'this time next year'! The song is about hope and faith that Mary's generation will do better than ours and the generations before us in regards to the environment.

lyrics

I looked around in the centre of town.
The shutters were shut, all the flags they were down.
I scrolled through my feed, saw chaos and rage.
Now they wait for you, to bury the past.

I know you will rise.

I saw the news, the fires rage on.
The forests they burn and the oceans they storm.
We left you our mess, no sign of a sorry.
I have faith in you, to better our past.

I know you will rise
