Verse 1 [Drezus]

My skin’s red, I bleed red, I’m seeing red

I’m praying for my people out there who ain’t seen it yet

His blood is cold, he’s living lies forever told

By his ancestors 500 years ago

Yeah I said it, got my peoples getting restless

Making money off our land and we ain’t even on the guest list

Carry on traditions of a racist ass pilgrim

And I know you really love it when my people play the victim

‘Cause it makes it seem like we’re folding under pressure

But we up to bat now no more playing catcher

‘Cause we see the bigger the picture that we have to capture

See how quick we get together? Man, we out to get ya

Chorus

You can lock us in jail and throw away the key

Take away my rights but you ain’t stopping me

‘Cause I been quiet for too long its time to speak

We got to stand for something to keep us free!

I’m idle no more

I’m idle no more

I’m idle no more

Yeah I’m idle no more

Verse 2 [Drezus]

I’m getting aggravated, my people saying chill

I feel my heart breaking, but I don’t need your pills

I need my people strong, with hearts of many men

He letting women die outside of the parliament

Opposition’s only siding for their benefit

The only ones we really got is us and it’s so evident

Before you take a stand, remember to get educated

Once you understand the message go and share it with your neighbors

Basically, we’re getting taken hostage for our land

‘Til we sell it out for profit now they got the upper hand

But trust me we can stop it, I’m thanking the four sisters

Dear Mr. Harper we all coming to get ya

And we won’t stop for nothing we’re bringing all of our cousins

And we’re getting educated so the fighting ain’t for nothing

Stand up for your people our time for power is coming

I’m a full-blooded native believe me I’m proud of it

Chorus Repeats
