I came across this song the other day on Facebook and can't remember ever really hearing it... so looked it up. It seems (after digging) it was written by Paul McCartney in around 2012. Anyway I was inspired to write it out. It's lengthy and I don't usually do lengthy stuff...
size: 8" w x 12" h
Done on Edge Mixed Media Sketchbook paper using broad edge nibs (Speedball C-5 and Brause 1.5) and Bister inks mahogany (small text) and black (large text) in Uncial style.
words:
we need to wake up
we need to wise up
we need to open up our eyes
Refrain:
and do it
NOW! NOW! NOW!
we need to build a better future
and we need to start right now
we're on a planet
that has a problem
we've got to solve it, get involved
Refrain:
we have to build a future
make it greener
make it cleaner
make it last, make it fast
Refrain:
we need to build a better future
and we need to start right now
no point in waiting or hesitating
we must get wise, take no more lies

Good advice. I wonder how much we've really accomplished in the years since that was written.
