What I Desire To Be, I'Ll Never See
If I could ever come back I know what I would be
I would be indigenous born on the real land of the free
No tribe would it matter for I'd be closer to earth
And I'd probably die like the rest, for what it's worth
But to live so free for many thousands of years
Yes we were fighting, not like our future fears
If we had the guns could you imagine their world
Indigenous invasion, the whole of Europe would have heard
No Dollars, Mount Rushmore or Sears Tower
Our indigenous grandfathers would hold their power
We will never know where we all would be
What I desire to be, I'll never see
