The American Dream was never meant for me
The American Dream was never meant for me
This battle is not new to us
We've endured centuries of cruelty
The government never protects
It only takes and destroys
60 million buffalo were slaughtered to drive out Indigenous nations
We are not considered human
Their lives driven to extinction
Our lives driven to extinction
Relationships destroyed
Broken bonds to Earth
Broken bonds with each other
The American Dream
Kill every buffalo you can
Every buffalo dead is an Indian gone
The Oglala Lakota burned down the slaughterhouses
Used to trap cattle
Used to trap them
Animals are meant to be free
We are meant to free
Rewrite the future
Rise up
This is a fight we must win
In defense of Turtle Island
And all the living beings on it
We need to be up in arms
Burn this system to the ground
Our ancestors showed us
Another world is possible
Rewrite the future
Rise up
This is a fight we must win
In defense of Turtle Island
And all the living beings on it
We need to be up in arms
Burn this system to the ground

I love the light and shade between Bryan's dirty and Emma's forlorn vocals. There are so many layers to this recording that are driven home through contrast. Plus the riffs are brilliant and get me moving. I can't stop listening to Thou and Emma in general lately. spaceman2250

everything about this compilation is fantastic: funds go to a good cause, a good primer on bands that are openly anti-racism ans great tracks. 10/10 Sterling
