100 million
Tell me how you're feeling
With the headdress on and the holocaust singing
I've been living
In a colonized world
'Cause the colour of my skin has red all in it
Listen, you can hear the drum go bang
I'm a get em
This is Canada man
I'm offended that you don't get it
But I get it
You don't really know better

100 million over 500 years
This is the reason I rap with the rage
The reservation bringing all my tears
This is a place that I hope we can change

Homie hung himself, only after that
Girl was buried, my life is full of that
Fentanyl and all the fundamentals
I'm in a headspace now that'll make you mental
Alcoholism just swallowed my cousin
Just roll with the punches and act like it's nothing
This is the basics of being a Native
'Cause racism came and defeated my Nation
You're mockeries you better stop with these
This is my culture you vulture you fake
You mocking me and you will not succeed
This is the reason I can not relate
I can not relate
'Cause you have so much hate in your heart for a Nate
But I snap on a snake as you slither I'd rather be living and giving the rhythm a shake

100 million over 500 years
This is the reason I rap with a rage
The reservation bringing all my tears
This is a place that I hope we can change

I'm a Salish man
As y'all take my land
I have the right to stand here and raise my hands
I hear O'Siem
And then the Ocean slams
Against the stolen land of where the Hope began
Wet'suwet'en wow
Standing Rock wow
100 million yo
500 years yo
Y'all love to hate us
You don't know what we're made of
I'm that Hope, I'm that Native
I'm that Hope, I'm that Native
I said y'all love to hate us
You don't know what we're made of
I'm that Hope, I'm that Native
I'm that Hope, I'm that Native
I don't know (get back)
To all my people I don't know (get back)
To all my people I don't know (get back)
To all my people I don't know (get back)
I don't know (get back)
