Big Mountain (For The Indians On Turtle Island) |
Redman redman |
Yuh afi fight fi yuh lan |
Jus like de days of old |
You’ll have to be cold and bold |
Dont let the witeman tongue fool u |
Dont let his paper cool u |
With tricks and lies he stole the land |
Refuse and resist the witeman plan |
Stand on big mountain its your ancestors earth |
Land is power without it life has no worth |
Stand on big mountain you’ll have to be strong |
Good must over come the struggle is long |
He came to turtle island with fire water in hand |
Gave it to the redman |
Then stole his land |
Gave us a image of indians so wild |
The image we got on the screen as a child |
Who is to blame who is to blame |
I say the image of john wayne |
Dont let the witeman tongue fool u |
Dont let his paper cool u |
Dont let his fire water get u down |
Stand up and fight for your piece of ground |
Stand on big mountain its your ancestors earth |
Land is power without it life has no worth |
Stand on big mountain you’ll have to be strong |
Good must over come the struggle is long |
In afrika and asia he went to civilize nations |
Yet in the land of liberty and justice he has reservation |
On the big screen he played his silly game |
Usin the image of john wayne |
Robbin and rapin he stole the land |
Refuse ahd resist the witeman plan |
Dont let the witeman tongue fool u |
Dont let his papers cool u |
Dont let the ancestors die in vain |
U have nothin to loose much to gain |
Stand on big mountain its your ancestors earth |
Land is power without it life has no worth |
Stand on big mountain you’ll have to be strong |
Good must over come the struggle is long |
