Array ( [sid] => 182231 [catid] => 1 [aid] => mick [title] => tribute to all the natives [time] => 2015-11-29 13:41:16 [hometext] => I was burning the midnight oil as i suddenly felt inspired to write this piece. As I take after the Australian band midnight oil with their song beds are burning [bodytext] => This is the occupied land,
The occupied land.
We took the land,
We took the land.

Called it our own,
Called it our own.
We we're so brave,
We we're so brave.

Taking it all,
Taking it all,
From north to south,
Say it loud,
We took the land.

But the natives are there,
They are there,
Calling out,
Calling out,
It's truth or dare,
Truth or dare.

The spirit earth,
The spirit earth,
Can take it back,
Take it back.

So hear me now,
Hear me now,
The spirit earth,
Is calling out.

Only One people here,
Earthlings all,
Earthlings all.

Have a heart,
Have a heart,
We all belong,
To the earth.

No difference there,
No difference there.

We all have heart,
We all have heart,
So understand,
We're One clan.

Of earthlings now,
Earthlings now.
We all affect,
Live on earth,
Live on earth.

So let's give life,
Give life.
We took enough,
Took enough.

Or the earth will take away,
Take away,
Everything,
Everything.

It is our destiny,
To share it all,
Or lose again,
Lose again.

Yes we took enough,
Took enough,
Let's give Some now,
Give Some now.

Care again,
Care again,
For all of us,
All of us.

It is our chance,
Is our chance,
To live again,
Live again.

Truthfully,
Truthfully.
The earth gave enough,
Gave enough.

Share it now,
Or lose it all,
Lose it all. [comments] => 1 [counter] => 168 [topic] => 34 [informant] => boomking [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 0 [ratings] => 0 [editpoem] => 1 [associated] => [topicname] => SongLyrics )

From north to south,
Say it loud,
We took the land.

But the natives are there,
They are there,
Calling out,
Calling out,
It's truth or dare,
