歌词
[Verse 1]
Give it time and we wonder why
Do what we can, laugh and we cry
And we sleep in your dust because we've seen this all before
Culture fades with tears and grace
Leaving us stunned, hollow with shame
We have seen this all, seen this all before
[Verse 2]
Many tribes of a modern kind
Doing brand new work, same spirit by side
Joining hearts and hands and ancestral twine, ancestral twine
Many tribes of a modern kind
Doing brand new work, same spirit by side
Joining hearts and hands and ancestral twine, ancestral twine
[Verse 3]
Slowly it fades
Slowly we fade
Slowly you fade
Slowly you fade
[Verse 4]
Hey, Mana, yo, yo, yo, yo
Hey, Mana, yo, yo, yo, yo
Hey, Mana, yo, yo, yo, yo
Hey, Mana, yo, yo, yo, yo
[Verse 5]
Hey, Mana, yo, yo, yo, yo
Hey, Mana, yo, yo, yo, yo
Hey, Mana, yo, yo, yo, yo
Hey, Mana, yo, yo, yo, yo
[Verse 6]
Spirit bird she creaks and groans
She knows she has seen this all before
She has seen this all before, she has
Spirit bird she creaks and groans
She knows she has seen this all before
She has seen this all before, she has
[Verse 7]
Slowly you fade
Slowly it fades
Slowly you fade
Slowly it fades
Slowly it fades
[Verse 8]
Hey, Mana, yo, yo, yo, yo
Hey, Mana, yo, yo, yo, yo
Hey, Mana, yo, yo, yo, yo
Hey, eh, Mana, eh, yo, yo, yo, yo
[Verse 9]
Hey, Mana, yo, yo, yo, yo
Hey, Mana, yo, yo, yo, yo
Hey, Mana, yo, yo, yo, yo
Hey, eh, Mana, yo, yo, yo
[Verse 10]
Soldier on, soldier on my good country men
Keep fighting for your culture now
Keep fighting for your land
I know it's been thousands of years
And I feel your hurt and I know it's wrong
And you feel you've been chained and broken and burned
And those beautiful old people
Those wise old souls have been ground down for far too long
[Verse 11]
By that spineless man, that greedy man
That heartless man, deceiving man
That government hand taking blood and land
Taking blood and land and still they can
But your dreaming and your warrior spirit lives on
And it is so, so, so strong in the Earth, in the trees, in the rocks
In the water, in your blood, in the air we breath
Soldier on, soldier on my good country men
Keep fighting for your children now, keep fighting for your land
[Verse 12]
Slowly it fades
Slowly it fades
Slowly it fades
Slowly it fades
[Verse 13]
Hey, Mana, yo, yo, yo, yo
Hey, Mana, yo, yo, yo, yo
Hey, Mana, yo, yo, yo, yo
Hey, Mana, yo, yo, yo, yo
[Verse 14]
Give it time and we wonder why
Do what we can, laugh and we cry
And we sleep in your dust because we've seen this all before
