LYRICS:
WILLIAM
I got quite the life, I come alive at night
Sunsets on the bay, I’m feeling nice
Life is a journey, taking back these rights
All my ancestors holding the light
SARAH
Thoughtful memories, special opportunities
Learn our history
Give back to our community
MARK
I’m dreaming of better days
I’ve got quite the life, it’s not a phase
It feels crazy, but it’s not too hard
Gotta do our part, gotta gotta use our hearts
CHORUS
We wanna be heard, we wanna be seen
We’re tryna learn, what they tried to burn
They thought we were gone, they were wrong T
he legacy lives on, we gotta be strong
KARMEN
Colorful memories
Sunset tones and the ocean breeze
What does the future need?
Family connection, culture and preservation
PEYTON
On the field, we’re all connected
We keep our culture alive and respected
I wanna inspire the world, to release the spirit
Learn the language, so they can hear it
DAUNTE
The future needs change, from all the pain
Same, game, caught in the rain
I hope that it stops
I hope we remember what we forgot
JASON
I’m on a journey to be better
Overcoming something, now we’re coming together
We’re the next generation, no longer patient
Keeping the culture alive for our nation
BRENNAN
Weight on my shoulders to keep the language alive
Bringing the songs back to life
They tried to stop us from celebrating, but we kept going
Now today, our identity is still showing
CHORUS
We wanna be heard, we wanna be seen
We’re tryna learn, what they tried to burn
They thought we were gone, they were wrong T
he legacy lives on, we gotta be strong
