I wrote this song because sometimes music reaches the soul where words cannot. I feel that technological advancements are important, & we as humans have become very dependent on it all, but I wonder if the rapid expansion of data centers is destroying the environment. There have been many droughts throughout history, but the last time the lower 48 States was in over 50% land mass drought was the Dust Bowl in the 30's and I feel this is worthy of pause & consideration. There has to be a way to do this safely, without sacrificing the environment.
