'Cause it was sacred, 'cause it was home
'Cause these were feelings from so long ago
Listen to the spirits, came up strong
All pull together to sing this song
This is how they did it, spears by their side
Stood on the mountain for their land rights
All the people noticed, movement took flight
They said:
This is our home, these are our rights
Ooh, this is our home, these are our rights
Country it was taken, land our god
Families were broken, spirits were crushed
The language that was silenced, free to be passed
The cup that was empty, slowly filling up
So we can pull together, show our children it is time
You see, this is our home, these are our rights
Ooh, this is our home, these are our rights Ooh, this is our home, these are our rights
'Cause it was sacred, 'cause it was home 'Cause these were feelings from so long ago Listen to the spirits, came up strong All pull together to sing this song
This is how they did it, spears by their side Stood on the mountain for their land rights All the people noticed, movement took flight They said:
This is our home, these are our rights Ooh, this is our home, these are our rights
Country it was taken, land our god Families were broken, spirits were crushed The language that was silenced, free to be passed The cup that was empty, slowly filling up So we can pull together, show our children it is time
You see, this is our home, these are our rights Ooh, this is our home, these are our rights Ooh, this is our home, these are our rights
