Native Son-Bryan Adams

[00:00.00]Lyrics：Bryan Adams/Jim Vallance Music：Bryan Adams/Jim Vallance [00:22.74]I've seen many moons through these wrinkled eyes, [00:27.03]The years have made me old, but they've made me wise, [00:32.43]Now the white man lives where our rivers run. [00:39.99]For now better days have passed, [00:44.39]We walk the streets of broken glass, [00:49.30]Our people vanished as snow before the summer sun. [00:57.39]Like dogs we were driven from this place, [01:01.61]Such injustice time will not erase, [01:07.13]All these changes cannot be undone. [01:14.79]When you feel the anger inside of you, [01:19.14]Hold your head high, let your aim be true [01:25.65]Though your heart beats like a drum, [01:30.54]My native son. [01:49.51]Once there was a time, my little one, [01:53.83]Before the wagons, before the soldiers' guns, [01:58.82]When this land was ours as far as the eagle flies. [02:06.96]No white flag, no broken truce, [02:11.24]With few words one can speak the truth, [02:14.63]I can't hear it, time won't heal it now. [02:21.29]With each new day that comes to pass [02:28.67]Will the Great Spirit free us all at last, [02:33.05]He said we were the chosen ones. [02:41.72]For all we had there's nothin' left, [02:46.10]We won't forgive, we can't forget, [02:52.70]You know that your day will come, [02:57.50]My native son. [03:00.01]With each new day that comes to pass [03:33.67]Will the Great Spirit free us all at last, [03:42.53]What has happened can never be undone. [03:51.31]When I was young, not yet a man, [04:02.24]The sun rose and set upon our land, [04:41.92]We were the chosen ones, [05:16.14]My native son.
