Native Tongue

I don't speak my father's native tongue
I was born under the Southern sun
I don't know where I belong
I don't know where I belong

My great granddaddy was Wiradjuri
My father came here from the Philippine
It's where I live, it's where I wanna be
Ooh, but you make me feel so ill at ease

I don't speak my father's native tongue
I was born under the Southern sun
I don't know where I belong
I don't know where I belong

It's easy enough for you to say
It ain't no thing
But I'm the one, you ain't the one
Been living in this skin

If you wanna call me somethin'
Call it to my face
But I will not apologise for takin' up this space

Every time you cut me down
I'm gonna come back fierce
The time is through for bein' nice
Let's call it what it is

I don't speak my father's native tongue
I was born under the Southern sun
I don't know where I belong
I don't know where I belong

I don't speak my father's native tongue
I was born under the Southern sun
I don't know where I belong
I don't know where I belong
