Indigenous Worldwide ft. DJ OHM Lyrics

Yea

Scarred but we're never dead

Heart like a rebel red

Bars from a thoroughbred

Sharp like an arrowhead

Believe in peace for all beings in each region

The trees breathing streams deepen it's spring season

Chiefs keep chiefing indigenous queens leading

My ink's bleeding keep thinking while dream weaving

To a newer definition of traditional boom bap

You're listening to aboriginal medicinal smooth rap

A little wild style with some pow-wow to make you dance

Gather round the round house for major plans

Today we take a stand

Save this native land

Yea

Pray with sacred chants ways of ancient man and woman

Giving thanks to the creator praise and raise my hands

Making clay from sand embrace our way and clans

Yea

New school to old go make the connections

Four sacred elements four sacred directions

Indigenous Tribes

We have survived

Worldwide

Now it's time to thrive

We have survived

Worldwide

Indigenous Tribes

Worldwide

Now it's time to thrive

Open up your mind

Giving thanks to the creator everyday I'm on the road

Broke down out of town but I made it to the show

Was a baby in the cradle thankful that I'm grown

I cherish my grandparents they made it on their own

I'm on the red road they tried paving it with gold

While flow is prayer that's painted with my soul

I'm giving it my all while haters and naysayers are wishing that I'd fall

I'm not giving up I'm up listening to Paul

They can't box us in so we kicking through the wall and I've written this for ya'll

Breaking out the system while changing how I'm living

Raised up in two worlds but saving our traditions

Under the sweet moonlight I reach new heights

I speak peace through mics and bring dreams to life

Awake to another day with a renewed site

But this isn't déjà vu where you could redo twice

Whoa

Indigenous Tribes

We have survived

Worldwide

Now it's time to thrive

We have survived

Indigenous Tribes

Worldwide

Yea

Now it's time to thrive

Open up your mind

Giving thanks

Yea

Thankful we survived last year

Prayers for our ancestors my tribes right here

They say it's the weather or pressure but I can feel the vibes in the air

The messages, the lies with the fear

Looking at the highlights in hindsight reappear

Blurry twenty twenty vision what happened isn't clear

No crowds too quiet we find time to cheer

Collecting memorabilia, stripes, and riot gear

Way passed the television as I have teleported

Hovering mother ship metamorphing shutting down your warship

Not as concerned with sports or who's really more lit

From a disenfranchised tribe I was a poor kid

And we're survivors of genocide for generations

Scorched earth policies long walks with poisoned blankets

This country is corporate my cultures sacred

You can put your weapons down and put down your hatred

Yea

Indigenous Tribes

We have survived

Worldwide

Now it's time to thrive

We have survived

Worldwide

Indigenous Tribes

Worldwide

Yea

Now it's time to thrive

Open up your mind

Yea
