lyrics

Ghost Horse:
Not so long ago
The colonizer came to this Land
With him he brought disease
pestilence
rape
patriarchy
capitalism
white supremacy
and genocide

Total war
That is who the colonizer was.
Total war
That is who the colonizer is.
Total war
That is how the colonizer will lose.

Not so long ago the native nations danced the Ghost Dance
To Rebel
To Remember
To Retaliate
To Resist
And to Win.
The colonizer saw this and tried to destroy it
They killed and attacked those who Danced
They thought they had destryed the Ghost Dance
but what they could not see
was that the Ghost Dance had just been the Seed.

With that seed planted it bloomed in secret
Quietly at first
But as it grew, it grew Strength.
As it grew, it grew Boldness.
As it grew, so did We.

And today the Ghost Dance is being practiced across this Land.
If you look you can see it.
Standing Rock.
Wounded Knee.
Oak Flats.
Oil Fields.
Washington, D.C.
Hawaii.
Guam.
Puerto Rico.
Mexico.
Everywhere the colonizer has touched, he will be expelled.

So colonizer,
You don't have to go home
But you can't stay here.

Now, they are awake, and in this new time, they play to inspire people to fight their old enemy.
Reggae for Revolution.
Indigenous Roots for Insurgency.
