LYRICS:
We are proud individuals living on the city
But the flames couldn't go much higher
We find gods and religions to
To paint us with salvation
But no one
No nobody
Can give you the power
To rise over love
And over hate
Through this iron sky
That's fast becoming our minds
Over fear and into freedom
Oh, that's life
Left dripping down the walls
Of a dream that cannot breathe
In this harsh reality
Mass confusion spoon fed to the blind
Serves now to define our cold society
From which we'll rise over love
Over hate
From this iron sky
That's fast becoming our minds
Over fear and into freedom
You just got to hold on!
You just got to hold on!
Oh oh oh oh
(To those who can hear me, I say, do not despair
The misery that is now upon us is but the passing of greed
The bitterness of men who fear the way of human progress
The hate of men will pass, and dictators die
And the power they took from the people will return to the people
And so long as men die, liberty will never perish
Don't give yourselves to these unnatural men
Machine men with machine minds and machine hearts!
You are not machines, you are not cattle, you are men!
You, the people, have the power to make this life free and beautiful
To make this life a wonderful adventure
Let us use that power!
Let us all unite!)
And we'll rise over love
And over hate
Through this iron sky
That's fast becoming our minds
Over fear
And into freedom
Into freedom!
From which we'll rise over love
And over hate
Through this iron sky
That's fast becoming our minds
Over fear and into freedom
Freedom!
Oh, from which we'll rise over love
And over hate
Through this iron sky
That's fast becoming our minds
Over fear and into freedom
Freedom!
Freedom!
Rain on me!
Rain on me!

![My Redneck Newfie Canadian Cousin - TrackSonix
My Redneck Newfie Canadian Cousin (TrackSonix). Lyrics and Music by Mike Crucefix and Jon Brooks. © 2025 Mike Crucefix and Jon Brooks. A playful, story-driven song about a wild Newfoundlander visiting the American South, where thick accents, hotter weather, and clashing cultures collide. From outport sayings to Alabama backroads, the track celebrates friendship, family, and the hilarious misunderstandings that come from mixing Newfie charm with redneck grit. Loud, proud, and full of heart - a cross-border, boots-in-the-mud comedy anthem.

LYRICS:
[Verse 1]
I got a cousin way up in Newfoundland,Wild as a moose and twice as loud—Boots in the mud, grinnin’ ear to ear,Chewin’ on salt beef, shoutin’ in the crowd.But he caught a flight, suitcase crammed full,From St. John’s fog to Bama’s red clay pull.Touched down in boots, sweat beads on his brow,Muttered, “Why for’s she so hot? Bye, turn that down!”
[Chorus]
Best kind, yes bye! No matter North or South,He’ll holler, Whaddaya at?” with a grin splitting his mouth.Say, “Stay where you’re at, I’ll come where you’re to,”He’ll wink right back, “Bye, that’ll do!”Lord tunderin’ Jesus, what a sight, them two—Redneck and Newfie, wranglin’ barbecue!
[Verse 2]
We’re cruisin’ the highway, windows rolled low,Country tunes clashin’ with the outport radio. [Pause]The heat is thick as pea soup, “It’s mauzy as sin!”He’s sweatin’ like a codfish, and just grinnin’ again.“Flat out like a lizard drinkin’,” he calls with pride,While a gator lumbers by the Alabama roadside.“Why for all this fuss, bye?” he howls at the sky—Then swats at a skeeter and gives it a try.
[Chorus]
Best kind, yes bye! Now we’re dodge’n the rain,From Dixie’s red clay to old Newfoundland’s plain.“Stay where you’re at and I’ll come where you’re to!”And if you’re confused, well, join the crew.He shrugs, “That’s a time,” and with Newfie delight—Turns up the drawl, and turns out the light.
[Bridge]
Out huntin’ for ducks, in a field with no sea,He asks, “Why for aren’t there boats? This don’t feel right to me.”He’s teachin’ me “Roll Tide!”—I reply, “What’s the point?”He cracks, “Lord liftin’, bye, have another joint!”When the job’s hard as butterin’ a cat’s arse with a needle,We just laugh and keep goin’, both stubborn as beagle.
[Outro]
Now the arse is gone out of ’er, time to roll on,Whether in bay or Bama, the foolishness goes on.If you ask how I’m cuttin’, “Like a knife!” I’ll say,‘Cause with a cousin like mine, life’s a wild kind of way.Best kind, yes bye, and don’t you forget—Redneck meets Newfie, the oddest duet.From St. John’s to Dixie, we howl at the moon:“Why for you stay where you’re at? I’ll come where you’re to! Y’all come back soon!”
