Orange Shirt Day (feat. Sten Joddi & Mack Sickz)

(HellnbacK verse)

It’s time for winning my natives we on the rise now

My focus is on the top fuck around and find out

My natives deadly my natives we always ready

If you want me come and get me Sitting bull sitting in a Chevy (eeeeeeewwwww)

I do this for the children

Who where never allowed to come home or even leave the building like (eeeeeewww)

I do this for the people standing up is the only option keep it moving this the sequel like….

(Hook)

My natives up like everyday is orange shirt day

Shutting down every system they put in place

Native resistance is what we be living

My native deserve everything that they be getting like

(Lisa’s Verse)

I love the fashion the colours my natives time is now

Sisters and brother the passion is shown at pow-wows

The beaded moccasins, beaded vest and the beaded leggings

The beaded cuffs, beaded headbands and skirts with ribbons

I’m talking everything even blessings from the elders

Sitting and listening to whatever they gonna to tell us

This for those fire keepers, water women, story tellers

To all the hunters and natives who be fishing for they dinners

(Hook)

My natives up like everyday is orange shirt day

Shutting down every system they put in place

Native resistance is what we be living

My native deserve everything that they be getting like

(Sten Joddi verse)

Boarding schools! Indoctrinations of the eductions

Religious acts, holy preachers of molestations

In Children’s eyes, tears of pain as a Mother Cries

A father drinks and he’s on the brink

Well thats no surprise…

Imagine them people taking your babies

Kicking and Screaming now what would you do?

This was the system that they put in place

It’s Perfectly working against me and you!

Are you woked up yet, Do you see the whole threat

Government check, gambler BET, bet bet bet

While the Elders Tellin’ stories….

(Hook)

My natives up like everyday is orange shirt day

Shutting down every system they put in place

Native resistance is what we be living

My native deserve everything that they be getting like

(Mack Sickz verse?

They treated us just like dirt

Took our kids when they touched our turf

Really made us question worth

And it all was a lesson learned

You wouldn’t be sad when the churches burned

If you learned of incinerators

Through years of hurt, the tears have turned

To mere discern and fears to learn

But we’re glowing up now, blowing up clouds

And all the rez kids growing up proud

Take a look, we’re showing up now

Everywhere, more than pow wow

In the media, on the TV

Everywhere, we’re more than tipis

It’s hard to trust because if broken treaties

Smudge a lot because we truly need peace

(Hook)

My natives up like everyday is orange shirt day

Shutting down every system they put in place

Native resistance is what we be living

My native deserve everything that they be getting like
