sin soto - tribe (ft. john trudell) lyrics

[john trudell] ”every one of us is the descendant of a tribe

go and study your tribal ancestry and see how you got civilized

they waged a war for the possession of the souls of the godless heathens

terrible things happened because they created a rationalization as to why to do it

i come from a tribe, i still remember that
but they’re trying to take that memory away
see so i feel a kinship to those ancestors and what they saw and what they tried to stand up against.”

[?]

they say gеt over it
they don’t know what it is
[?]
they’vе got no problem
denying the hateful things they did
out of sight out of mind
it’s a backwards mindset
history is written but the past ain’t healed yet
catch and release
we’re still tangled in their dragnet
and we’re never going to let you forget
you were wrong
it’s not the first time you’ve been wrong

you were wrong
it’s not the first time you’ve been wrong

a penny for your pride
a quarter for your hide
a dollar for your tribe
empires built on stolen ground

[jt]“every one of us is the descendant of a tribe

go and study your tribal ancestry and see how you got civilized.”

you were wrong
it’s not the first time you’ve been wrong
you were wrong
it’s not the first time you’ve been wrong

i’m civilly disobedient like henry d thoreau
how far down the rabbit hole do you want to go
you say you don’t know
but i know that you know
what you think i’m talking about
you wiped them out like the western black rhino
with your iron fist and your wickedness
with your iron fist and your wickedness
with your iron fist
with your iron fist
with your iron fist
and your wickedness
and still you can’t acknowledge this

you were wrong
it’s not the first time you’ve been wrong

a penny for your pride
a quarter for your hide
a dollar for your tribe
a dollar for your tribe
a dollar for your tribe

[jt] “people are afraid to think about what needs to be thought about
we live in an evolutionary reality and maybe it needs to evolve.”

[approximately 35 second pause/blank]

africa, america, australia, and armenia
europe and bosnia, cambodia, and syria
india, [?], bangladesh, rwanda
really makes you wonder

now you see the problem
but you don’t know how to solve it
how about you start but admitting that you caused it

so many cultures
preyed upon by vultures
but you still can’t admit the sh+t you did

africa, america, australia, and armenia
europe and bosnia, cambodia, and syria

and just when you think that this list could not get any longer

india, [?], bangladesh, rwanda

a penny for your pride
a quarter for your hide
a dollar for your tribe
a dollar for your tribe

and their pain goes on and on
their pain goes on and on
their pain goes on and on
goes on and on
