LYRICS

You want division? Ok listen…
My people making up 28% of these prisons,
We make up 3% here in this population while the other 97% under the ground missin
You wanna talk about it? Ok let’s talk about it
We got coppas killin mob and walking round and proud about it,
Wonder we’re loud about it?! We been silenced too long,
And I’m sick of being angry my people sick of being too strong,
I’m sick of my mob locked up, all over petty crimes,
White man gets let off and the black fullas lose a life,
You got our kids messed up, rippin apart our family ties,
Look at the statistics on abuse their institutionalised
I’m sick of being painted as a drunk,
I rock up to ya pubs and I don’t even have a drink but it’s full of fkn gubs,
I’m sick of white tears claiming they don’t get no love
But when look at the history they’ve always hated us,
Yous created division! This is white man made,
Truckers go into communities and make the black girls slaves,
Let’s get em hooked on meth then the white man rapes,
Then points the finger at the father so the black man’s blamed,
THIS THE TRUTH! They get fucked up it even ain’t mentioned,
You bring that poison to the people NT intervention, (let’s teach em a lesson
They’d be nothing without us,
We stole inventions and claimed em how dare first people go doubt us
They just created a stick…) But you poised our waters,
You went endangered our species all my Ancestors was slaughtered,
Then they created the borders, while they wiped out our knowledge
stole the language off my mothers tongue hell fire upon us
I’m just keeping honest,
I’m preparing to die
If that means my culture thrives without me alive
I’d do anything to have a little peace
But before I was born they already hated me
SO WHO THE FUCK I GOTTA BE?!
I ain’t your puppet on a string!
God save the fkn Queen? Fuck your Anthem I don’t sing,
You must got to be thick if you think it’s all a game,
I got my old people here without a name up on their graves,
Best believe it’s bout to change
They had us all stuck in a box,
So now we breaking out the barriers for the ones we have lost,
I’m coming for that stolen wage through my voice pay the cost
The tables have turned so now you call me mrs boss
Mr boss man?! Think you can close my eyes,
I’ll be that loud Blak bitch that you fkn despise,
I’ll be that angry Blak sister with that fire inside that lights the fires that make sure that my young kids survive,
You can call me you want!
Cause ima call it what it is
The rest of the world can see that Australia’s racist,
My page is full of pages commenting without faces,
And when they do show their faces they’re usually shit faced,
Have another one Shazzaaaa
Pour it up,
Put that bottle to your head and you can go and get fucked,
Think ya better doesn’t matter you’re the neighbourhood drunk,
Who gets fucked up on VB and shames out your sons,
Mother fucker!
65,000 fuckin years nah we ain’t done yet,
I don’t want your table fuck your table and it’s weak legs
Fuck your constitution you can keep it for them red necks
And every time you look at us I hope it makes you fuckers sweat

(in Barkindji)
