Rockin the Res |
Listen to the skies, listen to the sound. |
Something on the land, |
Something going down. |
Downpressers speeding by life, |
fevers heart burning rivers to cross. |
Walls of Babylon material noise |
thinking they’ve touched the moon. |
Freedom takes a rocket blast. |
Just another day like yesterday. |
Rockin' my heart, rockin' the Rez, |
Woman like you, times like this. |
All that’s real connect to you |
Happy medicine making me smile. |
Seeing you laugh getting so near |
Rockin' our hearts, Rockin' the Rez. |
Carrying on like he ain’t been gone, |
War-maker's back, back in town. |
His notion of taking care of us |
not the same as, not even close… |
Not even close to our notion of taking care of us. |
Nowhere to ride, nowhere to run, |
got no job and prices going up. |
War-maker' back in town. |
Just another day like yesterday. |
Rockin' my heart, rockin' the Rez, |
no chance we’re gonna ever give up. |
Together we’ll dance |
our personal dance. |
Swee starts surrendering |
only to each other. |
These days holding the night. |
Rockin' our hearts, rockin' the Rez. |
Startin warst with the stars and |
working on offing Earth, |
what kind of future is that? |
Some weird kind of living. |
Who needs that lie? |
Pretending we aren’t stars too, |
really isn’t very bright. |
Earth Stars |
with jail break in our hearts. |
Just another day like yesterday. |
Rockin' my heart, rockin' the Rez, |
woman I want, woman I need. |
Times when times do get hard |
you sure are some comfort. |
Rising up love, living on carries on. |
Rockin' our hearts, rockin' the Rez. |
Rockers Hearts, Rocking Rez. |
