Autobiography Of A Nati Lyrics

Autobiography Of A Nati lyrics

Write these words back down inside 
We have burned their villages and all the
people in them died 
We adopt their customs and everything they say we steal

All the dreams they had we kill 
Still we all sleep sound tonight 
Is
this what you wanted to hear? 
We erased all their images and dance 
And
replaced them with borders and flags 

At the top of this timeline you'll
remember 
This is the lipstick on the collar 
And in my own life I've seen
it in the mirror 
sometimes at the cost of others hopes 

So write
these words back down inside 
That's where you need it the most 
and
without conviction of heart you will never feel it at all 
Yeah, we all
dance to the same beat when we we're marching 
Yeah, the TV tells us
everythign we need to know 
And this scene is painting in all the fashions
of the moment 
And history is all the same 

Everything you say you
stole 
Every dream you dream
