Lyrics Hidden Graves (feat. Dexter Scout & Maple Little Bear) - Transit22

Don't apologize
To our face to our face
But they colonize
Our whole race our whole race
Hear their fallen cries
Lost in space lost in space
No one cares to find
Hidden Graves, tucked away
No one cares to find
Hidden Graves, tucked away
No one cares to find
Hidden Graves, tucked away

Where I'm from the secrets kept
Under the steps, they keep it swept
Seasoned vets, mistreatment? Yes
Take more land, what's even left?
Have the nerve to then observe
On that high horse, to the curb
They got here first, they killed their earth
They took their words now judge their slurs
A jealous breed, changed their speech
Forced them in, their beliefs
Lock them up, for sellin' weed
Then open up, dispensaries
How time flies, turned blind eyes
Took their spear, fed them fries
Took their truth, fed them lies
Then act surprised when they see them rise (rise)

Don't apologize
To our face to our face
But they colonize
Our whole race our whole race
Hear their fallen cries
Lost in space lost in space
No one cares to find
Hidden Graves, tucked away
No one cares to find
Hidden Graves, tucked away
No one cares to find
Hidden Graves, tucked away

Where I'm from, they tried to take
The type of things, you can't replace
They cut my hair, took my braid
If I spoke my tongue in blood I paid
Showed me Christ, taught me sin
Beat me until I prayed to him
Made me ashamed of my own skin
Pass that on, to my children
All this hurt, all this pain
All these lives can't be replaced
All this weight, it's been too long
If we stand up then we're in the wrong
You took my kids, I hear their cries
Then you broke every treaty signed
And act surprised when you see us rise, see us rise

Don't apologize
To our face to our face
But they colonize
Our whole race our whole race
Hear their fallen cries
Lost in space lost in space
No one cares to find
Hidden Graves, tucked away
No one cares to find
Hidden Graves, tucked away
No one cares to find
Hidden Graves, tucked away
