Better rivers in better states!
A better living’ a better place!
Preparation of better days!
Generation of better ways!
If the Language is in the land, then the rhythm within the word,
If history’s in the song, then I’ll be singing’ it with the birds
They kill a million fish, and our Rivers are barely running,
You ain’t thinkin of my community you are swimming up in your money
I’m bout to talk, I hope you’re listening, My people are never givin’ in,
A PSA to the government while I’m running within the riverbed
Tellin you its a drought, what they rather have you believe,
they manipulating the Country without the knowledge of what it means
I’m sick of watching the Media trynna keep it all under wraps,
I been doing the same thing, through my lyrics I bring it back
It’s difficult to be critical when they’re tedious with the stats,
TV’s a medium of the past, check Wikipedia for the facts,
We gotta call out the coverup when they sweep it under the mat
with the Treaty and with the Gap, even Leonardo DiCap,
The rivers are runnin dry, and nothing livin throughout the traps,
From Brewarrina to Menindee I think the system is outta whack
So how depressing is that? Imagine it for the kids,
You’re irrigating illegally I would naturally resist
It’s 2 hundred thousand dollars, that slapping’ him on the wrist,
I feel like slapping him in his face, tell em “that’s for killin the fish!”
We’re Shouting it through the halls, let it rattle up through the walls
Take a hammer right to the weir Instagram it and Let it fall
If the Language is in the land, then the narrative’s in the soul,
if the history’s in the family then I’ll carry it evermore
I said the History’s in the ground, the Language is in the land
Follow the Mundagutta as he would travel into the dam,
It’s pink and blue in the air, the sun is watering down
The sky turning to caramel like a Paddle pop in the cloud
And the Birds, singing for rain, while the Rivers are running deep,
see the Yellow belly and Cod, and there’s plenty of em to eat
Give the water to Mother Earth, gotta give her what she deserve
Better rivers in better states, better living’ a better place!
Preparation of Better days, generation of better ways!
