Tribal Nations
Kinryu
Native Preacher
Yo, life on the reservation
Growing up we never had much
But we're thankful for what was given
Against all odds, overcoming limits and restrictions
Trying to find some happiness in this polluted system
Making good out of a bad situation
My people's all survivors
We refuse to be your victims
We heed the elders wisdom
That everything you received is to be earned and not given
Buck the system and break free of this mental prison
It's war against alcohol and drug addiction
Having our spirits in chains like we're incarcerated
Constantly feeling like we're suffocating in this sufferation
There's no loyalty in this condemnation
Only damnation from a condemned nation
My people's all praying
Asking God if he can save them
I believe he can
Cause yo, I'm one of them
Trials and tribulation
So many fighting to win
So many fighting to make it
Once in a generation
Come some newfound hope
To awaken and inspire the native nation
Trials and tribulations
So many fighting to win
So many fighting to make it
Once in a generation
Come some newfound hope
To awaken and inspire the native nation
Life on the reservation
Some felt the love of their parents' touch
While others the pain when their parents' ended splitting up
It takes a village to raise these babies up
And yet we're still falling out of touch
Especially when depression is affecting us
And our families until we're just
Trying to find some happiness
Living with the effects of past traumatic experiences
With pain inflicted on us
But ain't nothing like my native peoples
Even though we may be at our low
We managed to push through this evil
With faith and hope
We pray through the sacred smoke
Cleansing the mental, purifying the soul
Breaking the holds in order to bring in the new for spiritual growth
Once in a generation
There comes some newfound hope
To awaken those who we have given up our either let go
Trials and tribulation
So many fighting to win
So many fighting to make it
Once in a generation
Come some newfound hope
To awaken and inspire the native nation
Trials and tribulation
So many fighting to win
So many fighting to make it
Once in a generation
Comes some newfound hope
To awaken and inspire the native nation
Life on the reservation
Where the struggle ain't nothing new
Where I heard the elders prayers come through
Where the ancestors lifted my spirit
Whispering we believe in you
Saying help to break the chains of oppression
And add to the sacred hoop
Cause all this destruction your attempting to do
Has already been done by others before you
It's nothing new
Even under the cover of darkness
The creator sees right through
It's time to make a difference
Cause there's something better for you
I know you're feeling the same
Cause through me they speak to you
So step into the light
Where Warriors sacrifice
Giving a hope and a future to the young lives
All while preserving the wise
To show and teach the next one right
Don't be distracted by the world and it's flashing lights
Your spirit contains the same inside
Trials and tribulation
So many fighting to win
So many fighting to make it
Once in a generation
Come some newfound hope
To awaken and inspire the native nation
Trials and tribulation
So many fighting to win
So many fighting to make it
Once in a generation
Come some newfound hope
To awaken and inspire the native nation
