Outright - Tied Through Time şarkı sözleri

Sanatçı: Outright

albüm: Keep You Warm


Displaced and detached
From her mother's arms she's dragged
Bloodlines corrupted through rape
To colonise her mind
And whiten her skin
Songlines disrupted by hate
To destroy culture and kin
Decades on, her descendants are torn
From their father's hand, they're wrought
Stolen again
Removed for "protection"
Generations tied through time
By trauma and poverty
Steal the child to keep her safe
From all she is? From who she needs?
Or maybe just from you?
Sorry means you don't do it again
Sorry
Forcing black circles into your square frame
"All let us rejoice" in your shame
Never learning from our past mistakes
We repeat, and lines of culture break
Makarrata to bring peace
We were never young and free
The oldest lasting culture we know
Persists despite the "salvation" - you bestow
Yet the longest surviving civilisation
Outlives your mission to civilise
