Something simple Is what we want But they don't want to give How we want To really live Indigenous land this is But they don't see the situation Only concerned with money and vacation Betrayed in our own land Sometimes they treat us like Strangers In Our Own Land Ohhh... Here they come again And they take so much from us I don't know What do I have left to give for them They take everything from we And what do we have left to give for them They don't want us happy They try to take everything and send us back To our little piece Do they want us to be Ever really be free? Freedom to us Is probably not the same thing it is to you Instructions of how to live Don't include money they are spiritual How to live in balance With all of creation If we don't do that it's destruction of our nations Betrayed in our own land We're always treated like strangers in our own land First they took the land and kids Now minerals, water I don't know What do I have left to give for them They take everything from we And what do we have left to give for them They don't want us happy They try to take everything and send us back To our little piece Do they want us to be Ever really be free? At Standing Rock we stood up They pushed us down Because they want their money And they want it now Same process of colonization That's been destroying every Indigenous nation Your money is made off of our destruction I don't know What do I have left to give for them They take everything from we And what do we have left to give for them They don't want us happy They try to take everything and send us back To our little piece Makes me wonder will we, ever be free again Or will the world, destroy itself?
