Here's
an
insight
to
a
time
You
gotta
step
back
to
before
the
spring
box
tours
Where
social
circumstance,
conditioned
minds
Had
to
adapt
to
survive,
our
people
in
the
frontlines
Now
Maori
response
a
resistance
A
form
to
challenge
to
system
Nga
tamatoa
had
heads
on
the
line
Maori
language
they
potitioned
*Hook*
Suffered
they
did,
ignorant
of
implications
Ostrasized,
against
what
they
knew
was
wrong
For
what
they
knew
was
right
The
blood
shed
flowing
tears
Bearing
scars
from
the
years
Can
even
explain
the
entirety
of
what
they
did
Connections
pierced
of
the
past
into
the
land
Wounded
links
between
those
gone
And
who
now
stands
We
do
remember(Bastion
Point)
We
do
remember(Parihaka)
We
do
remember(Waitangi)
We
do
remember
So
comprehend,
yes
comprehend
the
10
seconds
before
Because
the
line
is
never
straight
No,
no,
no
it
ain't
ever
straight
And
it
ain't
ever
what
you
saw
Wouldn't
you
call
them
soldiers
Wouldn't
you
bow
your
head
Wouldn't
you
raise
your
hands
Instead
of
closing
your
ears
Wouldn't
you
seek
their
knowledge
yes
Wouldn't
you
wake
the
dead
yes
Wouldn't
you
applaud
the
cause
yes
Instead
of
fearing
what
is
yes
