We've been here since the beginning
Descended from sacred obligations
We still stand by those
As we dream in the now
Born into where the slope been slippery
Check the history
It's been no mystery
Stolen removed Indigenous liberty
Placed power before
Understanding and humility
Armed with artilleries
Hostilities prayed upon
Until they caged us
Not realising later on creators songs
Would have us rising celebrating strong
Calibrating emanating
Sacred ancient throng deep
In the lands wisdom we do belong
These words are seeds that thieves
Could never take from
Our mothers womb piercing always beyond apocalypses and wrong totem extinction
Roaming restrictions
Trapped in missions
And colonial systems
Assimilation prescriptions
But our spirits never trapped
We always here glisten
Ancestors wisdom
Forevermore given yo
Yes we will always survive
No matter they do
Never gonna die
Yes will always survive
Yes we will always survive
Yes we will always survive
Yes we will always survive
Before 1788 there was nothing but black there was magic manifested in stacks until
The gun barrel tried to bring on
Genocidal attacks
But now
200 plus eons have elapsed that conquest didn't work
Cultivating new tracks
Packed with the pain
Of generations
Impacts upon our backs
From these constant
Hideous attacks
But yet we stand strong
In spite of all of that
Through the quicksands snakes and spiders
We are still surviving
Multiply like diamonds from asteroids colliding
Spiritually we guided through
The sounds and the silence
Alarm bells and sirens
Creators persisting
Flood out the colour
Through the policy and violence
We all family anew
Its a black uprising
Its a black uprising
Yeah we always surviving
Yes we will always survive
No matter they do
Never gonna die
Yes will always survive
Yes we will always survive
Yes we will always survive
Yes we will always survive
