Whispers

The government's words Are like whispers in our ears Telling us lies To hide away our fears Hikoi taku tai moana te take ō te wā Tāhae whenua anō te kāwanatanga Te pūkana ō tariana, te pū ō tame iti He tāonga mō nga iwi māori nā te kupu ō te tiriti The government's words Are like whispers in our ears Telling us lies To hide away our fears He tiriti nā amerika, john key te waha mōkai Ehara I te koha, tppa he tūtae He hui toropuku, he kōrero huna Nga iwi māori awere, te tiriti takahia The government's words Are like whispers in our ears Telling us lies To hide away our fears Hide away the truth, playing on our fears The government's words are like whispers in our ears The people will find out the truth about our nation A greedy system that shuts down our voice with legislation
