Peace Pipes

Verse 1
Just another voice that is never heard
Just a whisper above the noise while they're getting turnt
He sits as the tables turn
He just can't wait for his doesn't know how to face the earth
All he knows is that he wants to stay true and his main concern
Is to find out who he is and stick to it
Tryna learn his native tongue, can't seem to get fluent
Lost in translation of a two world navigation
When the day just seems faithless guess He decides to sit through it
Through the lights and flashes
He's finding home
Though his thoughts might be backwards
he's got the soul
Hell never never preach it less he practice
So the masses can find what their path is I'm telling you
Its time to go
So get up now while you still can
We're living once so just jump up and show them you won't bend
To the pressure of the hopeless
We're bout change this world up but till then man we'll be smoking peace pipes

Chorus
We'll be smoking peace pipes
Cuz I don’t wanna be a wanna be
I just wanna be what I wanna be
We'll be smoking peace pipes
I won't worry bout where I wanna be
Just worry bout what's in front of me

Verse 2
This mixed blood mixed with mixed love
Always been proud of who I am don't get it mixed up
Its nothing to fix up it’s more of a jigsaw not a stigma
this sense of purpose is being me that’s all I can think of yeah
but I remember those looks from my father
Like who do you think you are you forgot where you started?
Cuz it seems like your ashamed of what seems white, you guard it,
You deny your skin type I'm your cultural martyr
That’s not it though, I’ve been confused from the get go
Got love for my whakapapa both sides they cling so
Close to my heart, am I an Anglo don’t think so,
Calling myself a chief to stand up better never sink though,
So get up now while you still can
We're living once so just jump up and show them you won't bend
To the pressure of the hopeless
I’m bout to show the world who I am but till then man we'll be smoking peace pipes

Chorus


Bridge
Its the ink on my mothers chin,
its the blood through my veins and its pumping in,
yes its the call of the dawn hear it on the wind,
Its the fall of the doubt among other things,
X2

It's the feathers on my chest and I’m loving it,
Its the tartan that I’m starting with this knowledge
It's the words of the treaty put in Parliament
Now I know what the problem is so I'm bout to abolish it smoke it up with our peace pipes


Chorus
