lirik lagu rekindled systems – allara
[verse 1]
strong connections with these ancient lands
descending bloodlines for centuries
mussels, fish, birds, berries, yams
our people used to feast
cooking in old ovens under great trees
who’ve watched out life cycles custodial in style
on the dhungala river bank, crystal clear, clean, free
from carp, that muddy b*st*rd
he was never invited
[verse 2]
surveyors marking acres and acres
missionaries and jesus with religious take over
crown sort of saying
this land is free for the taking, so take it, but first
he needs his irrigations systems and the mass scare
of the blacks here, assimilation schemes
devised to divide and dismantle our songline
while our forefathers died on frontier lines
[chorus]
we are survivors, thanks to our ancestors
reviving our songlines, with fingers in the dirt
[verse 3]
to decipher tribal incantation from files taken
to record a dying race within an archive
of a thousand last kings
a natives true trepidation, all the while
i wear my soul on my sleeve
peace, when they wonder ’bout my colour, tell them
listen with your ears it’s under my skin
and listen with your hearts, i’m not here on a whim
it’s flowing through my arteries from my crown to my feet
in connection with country
i’m seeing faces, in the leaves of the trees
from the scars on my soul, to the hope on repeat
from my toes in the mud, to the tears my eyes weep
[chorus]
we are survivors, thanks to our ancestors
reviving our songlines, with fingers in the dirt
we are survivors, we are our ancestors
we’re dancing out songlines, with spiritual self*worth
spiritual self*worth
[verse 4]
together, with mother earth we stand
always was, always will be, aboriginal land
in the past, the present, in the future
let’s put our heads down and enjoy some humour
let’s work hard to protect our mother
let’s work hard to practice our culture
let’s work hard for what’s most important
[outro]
dhoma nyini yalka’s distant future
that’s it
