WAR lyrics written by Mana Kaleilani Caceres, music by "Radical Rob" OnekeaTrack #1 on Mana's 2nd CD titled "I BE HAWAIIAN" released 2007Now hear me sing these words, the truth you will find, the truth shall set you free.When all is said and done, the smoke clear the air, we will stand in victory.So we gonna march and we knockin' on your door,so better be prepared 'cuz its lookin' like a war.Politics and voting isn't getting anywhere,you cannot trust the system when you know it doesn't care.Come and join the revolution, we need you to rally with me.Come and join the true Hawaiians, in the state of emergency.Look at the Hawaiian people, with no place to go.Look whats happened to these islands, no longer our home.We fight for the nation, we fight to be free.We fight for the Kingdom, home for you and me.So what you gonna do when it's time to choose a side,sit at home in comfort, or stand with Hawaiian pride?Far to many years go by while my people cry,another day of bondage and I'm asking myself why.No longer shall we look the other way.Nowhere to run and hide 'cuz it's a judgement day.No longer shall we let you steal the land.No stopping these Hawaiians who work hand in hand.Come and join the revolution, we need you to rally with me.Come and join the true Hawaiians, in the state of emergency.Look at the Hawaiian people, with no place to go.Look whats happened to these islands, no longer our home.We fight for the nation, we fight to be free.We fight for the Kingdom, home for you and me.
