To Martina McBride on behalf of the Orca’s and Dolphins

your song reminds me truly of the
great souls of the sea
Concrete angels clearly
were never mean’t to be
but if we care to just reflect
the orca black and white
the dolphin both are angels
with their enormous might
and sensitive intelligence
advanced in every way
they show their feelings
in their songs as you do
every day

they are encased in concrete
Sea world has seen to that
a soul as wild as any wind
its tears are where its at
there is nothing there that’s subtle
their melancholic state
their hearts of course are broken
for they, understand their fate

prisoners that’s all they be
used and abused each time
they have to entertain
the human tribe
its but a crime
if anything in point of fact
these souls do like to play
in the ocean where they all were put
by the creator of all
you’d say

why would anybody in their right mind
steal your lives?
and put you in a concrete tank
no depth for your dives
no plants for your garden
no friends for your heart
just a concrete angel
whose tears fill every part

of every story ever told
of every tear that fell
the Orca’s and the dolphin’s
are in Sea world for a spell
that is torturing their spirit
their freedom and their soul
Martina Mcbride now deep inside
we all can take control

we all can help to free them
we all must help them be
please cancel your gig at Sea world
so the Orca’s can soon be free
so many acts have seen the film
the Black fish and they know
how truly vile and inhumane
this entertainment show

has been and is and you my dear
your blue eyes like the sea
are beautiful and sensitive
as they will always be

Thank you Martina for considering our request
