Verse 1 [Drezus]
My skin’s red, I bleed red, I’m seeing red
I’m praying for my people out there who ain’t seen it yet
His blood is cold, he’s living lies forever told
By his ancestors 500 years ago
Yeah I said it, got my peoples getting restless
Making money off our land and we ain’t even on the guest list
Carry on traditions of a racist ass pilgrim
And I know you really love it when my people play the victim
‘Cause it makes it seem like we’re folding under pressure
But we up to bat now no more playing catcher
‘Cause we see the bigger the picture that we have to capture
See how quick we get together? Man, we out to get ya
Chorus
You can lock us in jail and throw away the key
Take away my rights but you ain’t stopping me
‘Cause I been quiet for too long its time to speak
We got to stand for something to keep us free!
I’m idle no more
I’m idle no more
I’m idle no more
Yeah I’m idle no more
Verse 2 [Drezus]
I’m getting aggravated, my people saying chill
I feel my heart breaking, but I don’t need your pills
I need my people strong, with hearts of many men
He letting women die outside of the parliament
Opposition’s only siding for their benefit
The only ones we really got is us and it’s so evident
Before you take a stand, remember to get educated
Once you understand the message go and share it with your neighbors
Basically, we’re getting taken hostage for our land
‘Til we sell it out for profit now they got the upper hand
But trust me we can stop it, I’m thanking the four sisters
Dear Mr. Harper we all coming to get ya
And we won’t stop for nothing we’re bringing all of our cousins
And we’re getting educated so the fighting ain’t for nothing
Stand up for your people our time for power is coming
I’m a full-blooded native believe me I’m proud of it
