Diamond In The Rough Songtext
Dhinawan yuluwirri – from the beginning
Like a whisper in the wind singin’ the spirits are with me
Yarran-dhu mirri-dha, diamond in the rough
It’s Moree madness, living life in the cut
Rumpers at night
going live on the mic
Like a spark to a flame
When the timing is right
Like a whisper in the wind singin’ the spirits are with me
Yarran-dhu mirri-dha, diamond in the rough
It’s Moree madness, living life in the cut
Rumpers at night
going live on the mic
Like a spark to a flame
When the timing is right
Yaama. Welcome to the black soil plains
Where the mob self-medicate to hide from the pain
Where the war with cops is just a part of the game
Shout outs to Buddy G – put respect on his name.
Don’t forget it
We got these traumas
We’ve been trying to heal this pain
They tried to break us
They can never take away this flame
The system trying to cage us
Put our mob back in these chains
Them old spirits angered
Look to the stars and you will see
Moree madness, getting ready to go.
When I speak my truth I got that sunshine glow
From the bush to the beach where my songlines flow
Gomeroi, Dunghutti – if you know then you know
My daddy said this world ain’t made for me
No matter what I do how I dress how I speak
But no matter what they think, what they hear, what they see
I am this country and this country is me
Me and my M.O.B
Shout outs to Moree
Got dat black history
Top Camp to Birrawee
Wear the black on my back where my backpack be
Once I land my degree – nah ya ain’t stopping me (nah)
Coz my people survived
Kept my stories alive
It’s where I get my pride
Straight outta Terry Hie Hie
Got the spirit inside
I got that black soil pride
Put ya hands in the sky
If you from Terry Hie Hie
We got these traumas
We’ve been trying to heal this pain
They tried to break us
They can never take away this flame
The system trying to cage us
Put our mob back in these chains
Them old spirits angered
Look to the stars and you will see
Where the mob self-medicate to hide from the pain
Where the war with cops is just a part of the game
Shout outs to Buddy G – put respect on his name.
Don’t forget it
We got these traumas
We’ve been trying to heal this pain
They tried to break us
They can never take away this flame
The system trying to cage us
Put our mob back in these chains
Them old spirits angered
Look to the stars and you will see
