Tear Jerker / Running Wild

• "Uaschitschun", where the protagonist grieves over the death and destruction white settlers have brought to his people and the natural environment of his home. They, at the same time, proudly remain Defiant to the End in the triumphant yet melancholic chorus:
  I'm riding free
  Riding free with the wind
  Free as an eagle
  Proud as a king
  • The words of the bridge section, a quote from Abenaki activist and filmmaker Alanis Obomsawin that was inspired by Chief Seattle's famous speech, also enhance the song's powerful message yet very melancholy tone:
  Why do you kill yourself
  Ravage what you need to live
  You can't eat your gold
  Nature's calling you
