about

Imagine a future where Mankind got its shit together. You might have to brush up a bit on your Martian geography though. Yusuf Islam connoisseurs will know why we mispronounced ‘Jezero’…

lyrics

The sun rises white
In the dust-blue sky
As a new day dawns
Red soil on our hands
White clouds up above

As we tap into the ground
We tap into the ground

New lands wait out ahead
As our children, tall and pale
Roam from lake to lake
Spread from lake to lake
Sprung from the air

Earth's a tiny speck
Rising over the horizon
As Phobos climbs the sky

From the rivers deep in valleys
To the peaks of Mt. Olympus
Mars is our new home

From Melas Chasma rises
Earth Memorial spire
Repository of memories
Tricentennial choir

Hear Syrtis Major Planum call
With gravity anomaly
Jezero crater our landfall
Beneath la Mer du Sablier

Let’s count our blessings
Let us breathe in the day – under
Distant earthlight
Distant earthlight

Let’s count our blessings
Let us breathe in the day – under
Distant earthlight
Distant earthlight
Distant

Blessed be the Ancients
And the world that they have made
For their children deep in time
And our future out…

…ahead
