Wild Turkey "One Sole Survivor"

(lyrics found and bit modified) 

* From album: "Battle Hymn"

The people who cried 

Beneath their trash had died

Lost troughout time are the words of a lifetime

Praise not your name for as long as you're known

Keep to the path that your soul doth survive

Feelings for no one soon found in your strife

Feel free, you'll see

You have time to forgive

Stand clear, no fear

Forever you may live

Alone you stand on a tower of knowing

Watchin' over your world for what shame

Soon you'll appear to be without fear

Preaching the lessons your children will hear

Can feel free, you'll see

You have time to forgive

Stand clear, no fear

Forever you may live

Once in one's life there's a shadow of fear

Hold out your soul, never cry in the sun

Remember your children; there's love by your side

Remember your father who fought for your pride

Can feel free, you'll see

You have time to forgive

Stand clear, no fear

Forever you may live

Alone you stand on a tower of knowing

Watchin' over your world for what shame

Soon you'll appear to be without fear

Preaching the lessons your children will hear

Can feel free, you'll see

You have time to forgive

Stand clear, no fear

Forever you may live

Wild Turkey "Sentinel"

(lyrics found) 

* From album: "Battle Hymn"

Within the jungle hides

Climbing through the trees

Three orangutans resign 

Their lives to eating leaves

Staring into space

Never thinking why

Within the city's walls

Rushing underground

Commutor trios sit

And talk of things profound

Of what and why there are

Wonderous things to come

High above my head

Twirling in the sky

Three explorers bide 

Their time to wonder why

Why it is that we 

Are the way we are

Upon the ground I sit

My eyes forever scan

The ways of industry

The thoughts of fellow man

To watch, to think, observe

Find the answers why
