Mega Ran, Penny The Great, Slopfunkdust - Reconstruction Blues lyrics

It's been a few years since
The battle for the planet
A lot of devastation every city every nation
We stuck with limitations
Even poison vegetation
We faced extermination but the
Human race survived
And to everyone's surprise we
Decided to rebuild
Put our strength to the test
And combine every skill
But for people like me u
See the mission never stops
Skull squadron on patrol and we
Always on the watch
I'm flying over deserts once populated cities
The epitome of life man the
World was so pretty

Now it's nothing but a wasteland
The water isnt safe man
Life flourished on the planet now
Theres no trace fam
Separated from my squad had to
Make my own rounds
Restricted flyzone i see something
On the ground i had to take a closer
Look set my veritech down
I can't believe my eyes and tell
The people what i found order out of chaos
It comes and it goes
Like the Phoenix in the flames
Death before growth rising from the ashes
Fires and the clashes natural disasters
The here after ain’t nothing more we can do
These are the reconstruction blues

I see Flowers blooming i can't
Believe my own eyes
The planets reconstructing it'self
What a surprise
The zentradi battleships destroyed
The whole surface
In just a few minutes for one simple purpose
The SDF1 was something more
Than it really seemed
A protoculture factory
Something from our worst dreams
The only power source that
The aliens required
It landed on our planet like
A chariot of fire
And unbeknownst to us we decided we
Decided we can fix it
Develop their technology and build
Our own ships wit

We had it all twisted and we
Sprung the first booby trap
And here comes the aliens we
Had to fight back
Now the robotech scrap from
The planets greatest battle
Covers plains in the fields where
The cattle used to graze
I feel lost in a maze
And every wrong turn is death
Big brother said be brave so
Ima listen with respect

Order out of chaos it comes and it goes
Like the Phoenix in the flames
Death before growth rising from the ashes
Fires and the clashes natural disasters
The here after ain’t nothing more we can do
These are the reconstruction blues
Ain’t nothing more we can do
These are the reconstruction blue
