Have not forgotten the indigenous 
        E               G#                      A 
For the western man has been working so hard against us 
         E                  G#                                    A 
With his western medicine and his land management and his fences uhuh 
       E                       G#                       A 
Or the way he protects and the way he preserves and the way he neglects the people who came first 
             E               G#             A  
You know the same ones that he massacred

Of the collective youth definitely seems to be in favor  
       G#              A 
Of the western mans invasion 
                 E  
I see em pumping fear like an iv 
G# 
Spreading like a disease  
    A 
And all the while building the crudest army 
   E                          G#  
Of god-fearing youth with no knowledge of the truth  
          A 
And their selfishness is so ugly 

 
       E    G#               A

A 
Fueled by spectators and their money  
       E                      G#            A 
And their need for things that will not last 
                 E                 G#               A 
So go on build a hotel a gift shop in the wilderness 
             E                  G# 
Making a profit capitalizin' on it 
    A 
And all the while trampling on everything that is sacred 


        E    G#               A 
And it all starts to make sense 
         E              G#                           A 
Why the western man destroys thing he doesn't understand 
    E    G#               A 
It all starts to make sense 
           E                         G#              A 
All these patterns and wasteful destructive practices

Living like a third world country inside this country  
A 
Fuck the government that puts the people in poverty

    A 
And corporate comanpnies have got their cupboards full of groceries 
       E                       G# 
It's disgusting how you can do nothing  
     A 
And complain about the situation in which you're living 

 
    E    G#               A 
It all starts to make sense 
                     E                  G#                 A 
They're vultures of culture and they're picking it all my friends

A 
Independant of this democracy is really worth it

My request is reasonable, a tribe undefeatable 
A 
Ambition to keep movin' towards solutions that are feasible 
          E 
It's unbelieveable  
        G# 
All the slow moving people  
           A 
They could care less just as long as they are comfortable  
           E                                 G# 
It's unforgivable because the conditions are now critical 
A 
Whether or not you're ready we are now approaching the pinnacle 
      E                 G# 
It's difficult to say exactly what to do 
        A 
But the change begins with me and i reflect it back to you 
    E                G#       A 
And you and you and you  (come on man)
