Song Description

Iman Khelif, Olympic boxer, got a lot of shit because of her genetics. Most of what people write was so nasty...let's see if we can upgrade our relationships to screens....and our fellow human beings by learning from our historical wisemen. (and women).

Lyrics

Shadows in a Digital Wind
Lyrics:
Verse 1:
On modern screens, gossip slips through fingers like thieves,
Truths sway, lost in digital seas.
A friend once swayed, dimming the light,
Iman Khelif's tale lost in the fight.
Chorus:
Hear the ancients calling, through our noisy clime,
Wisdom drowned out by the chimes of time.
In our haste to speak, what truth do we send?
Are we but shadows swirling in a digital wind?
Are we but shadows swirling in a digital wind?
Verse 2:
Beneath boughs where sages once shared,
Digital etiquette, their olden scrolls declared.
Before the tweet does fly, before you hit send,
Pause beneath that tree, where truth began.
Bridge:
In virtual caves where shadows play,
Each post and tweet, stones thrown away.
Ripples form where deeper currents play,
Choose your pebbles wisely, let wisdom say.
Chorus:
Hear the ancients calling, through our noisy clime,
Prudence drowned out by the chimes of time.
In our haste to express, what hearts do we mend?
Are we but shadows swirling in a digital wind?
Are we but shadows swirling in a digital wind?
Outro:
From the untruths spoken to the real we know,
Let our words be seeds in the fields we sow.
May our voices join the wise and mend,
Resounding through the forests of the digital wind.
