Lyrics:
I started to listen and I found there was more to this story…

Nah, na na na, nah na na
Nah, na na na, nah na na
Nah, na na na, nah na na
Nah, na na na, nah na na na
(x 2)

You have to live it to know it
Wounds we cannot see
Landmines, headlines, pipelines
So many ways to bleed

What’s contained
In the blood of these veins
The strength and the scars
The love and the pain

Someday, it’ll be alright
Someday, we’ll be free from the fight
Oh someday

I had to say goodbye again
Remember how to pray
Another brother down,
Another light dark today

I won’t bury him in silence
But lift him in song
His stories are mishkiki
To carry on and on

So no more addiction,
Shame or hate
No more oppression, sorrow
…and the way this heart aches

Someday, it’ll be alright
Someday, we’ll be free from the fight
(x 2)

No more, no more struggling
No more, no more suffering
No more, no more struggling
No more, no more suffering
(x 2)

In these hard times
Ground’s uneven beneath my feet
One foot on the earth
The other on concrete

We fight harder, love stronger
We’re the healers, the medicine
Joy is how we resist
We’ll dream in our language again

Someday, it’ll be alright
Someday, we’ll be free from the fight
Someday, it’ll be alright
Someday, we’ll be free from the fight
Someday, we’ll be free
We’ll be free, we’ll be free from the fight
Someday, we’ll be free
We’ll be free, we’ll be free from the fight

No more struggling
No more, no more suffering
No more, no more struggling
No more, no more suffering
