I AM - From the Ava DuVernay feature film 'Origin'
We are the colour
Felt in the spring
You are the wind
Breathe into me
You inherit me
I inherit you
I am the language
You speak to me
As far as the eye can see
Everything has changed
Tell me how can we stand by
I don't wanna be the same
He toiora ahau nōu
Te toi nō Kurawaka
Taku rongomaiwhiti e
Tākiri ko te haeata
Anga atu ki te rā
Whiti, whiti ki te ora e
We are the waters
The rivers and streams
Flow through the armour
Of a dying breed
I am with you and you are with me
Baptised in fire
We're lions in the ring
As far as the eye could see (as far as the eye could see)
Everything has changed
Tell me how can we stand by
I don't wanna be the same
He toiora ahau nōu
Te toi nō Kurawaka
Taku rongomaiwhiti e
Tākiri ko te haeata
Anga atu ki te rā
Whiti, whiti ki te ora e
Hou mai rā
Tō rongo e
Hou mai rā
Tō karere
Mau tonu e
Hou mai rā
