Lyrics Ascent - Hawkwind

Ascent

There are many things that we don’t understand
The meaning of life, the ascent of man
But where in this world of creatures great and small
Can we help for the good of the whole?
In this world full of avarice, greed, and hate
We must turn the tide and educate
Look to the living, either left or right
Ready to give up without a fight
Systems overload, population explode
Where we go from here
God only knows
In this world full of avarice, greed, and hate
We must turn the tide and educate
We must turn the tide and educate
Turn the tide and educate
Learn to live in harmony and love
Light up the night sky, the heavens above
Protect our wipeout from this world so great
Stop the hunting of fish
Keep the oceans pristine
In this world full of avarice, greed, and hate
We must turn the tide and educate
We must turn the tide and educate
Turn the tide and educate…
