	Story Behind the Song I guess this is a play on "E pluribus, Unum" as well as an allusion to 9-11, though it wasn't meant to be so political. Just one imaginary guy talking, really. Lyrics (Chant) These are not reservation songs These are our preservation songs Not just people, prayin' for rain But a people living over the pain You know, you were coming to get us You wanted to destroy us Man, we never got close to one (Chant) What the hell happened to the land you took Full of bison and endless trees All I see now is a modern playground Land of strip malls and SUVs You were coming to take this land You were always gonna do this, man We coulda got closer to one (Chant) Now don't worry, I'm a realist I drink whiskey, drive a pick-up truck Ain't gonna start no native revolution But I get angry if I think too much Feels, sometimes like you're still coming to get us Ooh, like you wanna destroy us Will we ever be closer to one (Chant) These aren't just reservation songs These are our preservation songs Never thought you would ever need them Now you know that we all need them Now they're coming to get us ALL Yeah want to destroy us all You know, we better get Closer to one Closer to one
