At Standing Rock
On th'internet, a native family
From Standing Rock, face-booking back at me
Blocking the pipeline snaking through the waterway
with their indigenous solidarity
The warriors are on the water
Holding the bridge in North Dakota
No violence from the Lakota
Standing their rock-solid bodies in the way
Heya, you keyboard warriors
Heya, Defenders of the earth
Don'tcha know if I could walk to Standing Rock
Then I would not be standing here today
Trails of tear-gas, bullets of rubber,
They got their taser-lash - We got eachother!
Stand firm in love, sisters and brothers,
Cos more and more people joining everyday
Heya, you keyboard warriors
Heya, Defenders of the earth
Don'tcha know if I could walk to Standing Rock
Then I would not be standing here today
The Veterans who fought a war for oil
making amends defending native soil
Black Snake - he shaking in his coils
To find the First Nation standing in the way.
Heya, you keyboard warriors
Heya, Defenders of the earth
Don'tcha know if I could walk to Standing Rock
Then I would not be standing here today
I'm giving thanks for living on this day.
I'm giving thanks when I hear the people pray
And I'll be thankful, when the men in power say
"Energy Transfer - you find another way!"
Way-hay! Give it up for Standing Rock!
Hooray, They're giving it all that they got
And we pray to get another shot
At Standing Rock solidarity today
Hiya, you keyboard warriors
Hiya, Defenders of the earth
Don'tcha know if I could walk to Standing Rock
Then I would not be standing here today
- Cos y'know if I could walk to Standing Rock
Then I would not be standing here today
