about

(The hopeful legacy of saying sorry to Indigenous Australians, and we still have this debate about Australia Day)

lyrics

There was hope in recognition
Two hundred and forty + years fighting sovereignty
The posterity left with the faint memory of family
“Apologies for all indignity”

The price of admission never held enough regard
High enough to see the view
That this golden soil cannot be sold
With a promise of we’ll make do (and overdue)

One day to remember
One moment to reflect on the pain that we caused
Generations, acculturation forced on communities
With a pen because we failed with the sword.

Never ceded, Always was, Always will be!

Bated breath and the beating of chests, last gasp for the good old days
Did you think that this was a culture lying in wait

For admission?, Seditious acts won’t be expressed only in words
Guilt’s for the birds, we do remind

They remind!

Never ceded, always was and always will be!

Never ceded! Always was and always will be!
