Kaluyuti (Clouds Passing Over)
The Blood in This Body
The blood in this body is the blood of a red man
The heart in this body is the heart of same man
The spirit in my body is the spirit of my people
I will not go in any building with a steeple.
The white man needs to get an education
If he's to understand my peoples frustration
We’ve been through a lot of humiliation
and it's all due to a lack of communication
Tell us we can’t talk the way we talk
Tell us we can’t walk on the land that we walk
And after you’ve taken our language and our land
You look at us as if you don’t understand
We are angry and we are raged
At the war that you have waged
Many of our leaders are dead and gone
But a new generation has been spawn
So keep your god and keep your disease
Because we don’t need to be on our knees
Want to be a friend – want to be a foe?
I don’t care which way you go
We may have peace or we may fight
You make the choice what you think is right
You see - you don’t have to like my kind
But as long as your around I’ll try not to mind.
