Cultural Change

Came in from the surf, got a few waves
Standing on the beach near my usual place
This is utopia this moment in time
Enjoying the water, the beach, feeling fine

It's 'bout a new way of thinking
It's 'bout a new vibe

Looking at our country visions appear
As I'm thinking about the view from here
For thousands of years it would've looked like this
But with no massive buildings on distant cliffs
As I'm looking at the picture I could see
Home to First Nations, people just like me
I see lots of children, all having fun
Learning to fish or playing games in the sun

It's 'bout a new way of thinking
It's 'bout a new vibe
It's 'bout our First Nation history
That we no longer hide

It aint utopia other places I go
If only then we knew what we now know
Let's hope from now descendants of me and you
Care for our country like the indigenous do
I don't think I'm a greenie but can someone please
Tell me why our nation don't control of our trees
We talk of climate change but as matter of fact
Cultural change may be the key to all that

I think the key may be a cultural change
I think the key may be a cultural change

It's 'bout a new way of thinking
It's 'bout a new vibe
It's 'bout our First Nation history
That we no longer hide

Maybe their way of thinking their respect for the land
And taking care of our planet come hand in hand
They managed the country for so many years
But now, how long before He runs out of tears

(How long before He runs out of tears)
(How long before He runs out of tears)

It's 'bout a new way of thinking
It's 'bout a new vibe
(How long before He runs out of tears)
It's 'bout our First Nation history
That we no longer hide
(How long before He runs out of tears)

It's 'bout a new way of thinking
It's 'bout a new vibe
It's 'bout our First Nation history
That we no longer hide
