We Will Not Be Broken
Copyright © 1999 words and music by Dean Batstone

They came in ships across the water
Bearing gifts from far off lands
The fatted calf for the slaughter
The blood still running from their hands
They came to build the golden alter
Promised the good life to us all
They raped the land and raped our culture
As all around us Spirits fall

Ch: Where’s it all gonna end
We will not be broken
We will stand to fight again
We will not be broken

They brought their wisdom to our elders
Brought their vices to our sons
Brought their greed to our children
Tamed our spirits with their guns

Ch:

Bridge: What you give they take away [3X]
It all comes back someday

Now the forests drown in concrete
And the rivers cry for life
Black smoke hides the God of Fire
Mother Earth must pay the price

Ch:

Back to LOVE THAT SHINE
