MAX Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
The earth is just a dead thing you can claim
But I know every rock and tree and creature
Has a life, has a spirit, has a name
You think the only people who are people
Are the people who look and think like you
But if you walk the footsteps of a stranger
Have you ever heard the wolf cry to the blue corn moon
Or asked the grinning bob cat why he grins?
Can you sing with all the voices of the mountain?
Can you paint with all the colors of the wind?
Can you paint with all the colors of the wind?
Come run the hidden pine trails of the forest
Come taste the sun-sweet berries of the earth
Come roll in all the riches all around you
And for once never wonder what they're worth
The rainstorm and the river are my brothers
The heron and the otter are my friends
And we are all connected to each other
In a circle of a hoop that never ends
Have you ever heard the wolf cry to the blue corn moon
Or let the eagle tell you where heβ²s been?
Can you sing with all the voices of the mountain?
Can you paint with all the colors of the wind?
Can you paint with all the colors of the wind?
How high does the sycamore grow
If you cut it down then you'll never know
And you'll never hear the wolf cry to the blue corn moon
For whether we are white or copper skinned
We need to sing with all the voices of the mountain
We need to paint with all the colors of the wind
You can own the earth and still
All you own is earth until
You can paint with all the colors of the wind
MAX's song "Colors of the Wind" draws its inspiration from the Disney animated movie Pocahontas. It utilizes the themes and messages conveyed by the original soundtrack to deliver a powerful message about respecting and living harmoniously with the natural world.
The lyrics call out the perception that one can own the land and nature. It asserts that everything on this planet - be it a rock, a tree, or an animal - has a spirit, life, and a name, and therefore, it is unjust to try and claim ownership over it. It also points out the dangers of living in isolation as it leads to narrow-minded thinking. One can learn and gain wisdom by walking in a stranger's footsteps and seeing things from different perspectives.
The song also touches upon the importance of connecting with nature and life's other simple pleasures. The singer describes the joys of running in the forest, tasting the sweet berries, and rolling around in the riches surrounding him. It highlights that satisfaction doesn't come from material possessions but from the relationships we form with the world around us.

Think you own whatever land you land on
Believing you have ownership over any piece of land you step foot on
The earth is just a dead thing you can claim
The planet is simply an object that can be taken ownership of
But I know every rock and tree and creature
Understanding the life and significance of every natural element
Has a life, has a spirit, has a name
Recognizing that every rock, tree, and creature has its own unique identity and value
You think the only people who are people
Believing that only individuals who physically resemble oneself have true humanity
Are the people who look and think like you
This belief is based on shared physical characteristics as well as shared beliefs
But if you walk the footsteps of a stranger
By experiencing the journey of someone who is different from oneself,
You'll learn things you never knew you never knew
Gain knowledge and perspective that were previously unimagined
Have you ever heard the wolf cry to the blue corn moon
Ever experienced the call of the wild and the beauty of the natural world

The natural elements are imbued with life and considered family
The heron and the otter are my friends
All creatures, no matter how small, can connect with one another on a profound level
And we are all connected to each other
The Earth, its inhabitants, and its natural elements are all interdependent
In a circle of a hoop that never ends
The cycle of life and nature is eternal and never ending
How high does the sycamore grow
Pondering the limitless beauty and possibilities of nature
If you cut it down then you'll never know
If you destroy nature, you will never experience what it can offer or what you have lost
And you'll never hear the wolf cry to the blue corn moon
If nature is destroyed, its unique call and beauty may never be experienced again
For whether we are white or copper skinned
Regardless of physical characteristics, all individuals deserve access to the beauty and marvel of nature
We need to sing with all the voices of the mountain
It is crucial that we embrace and strengthen our bonds with nature
We need to paint with all the colors of the wind
We must capture and celebrate the unique, diverse beauty of nature in all of its forms
You can own the earth and still
Despite perceived ownership, humans cannot truly control or conquer nature
All you own is earth until
Ownership of Earth is temporary and fleeting
You can paint with all the colors of the wind
However, the ability to connect with and capture the beauty of nature will last a lifetime
