Lyrics

[Verse 1: Briggs] You can't contain my authority, restrain the minority Take the head, everybody, and follow me From a long line of leaders and warriors I paved a path through the face of intolerance [Verse 2: Trials] Through the face of a colonist, half-arsed apologist Celebrating death on Australia Day More they making a change, more they staying the same In a blink watch an officer turn into a coroner [Verse 3: Briggs & Trials] You ain't got the balls to walk these corridors Gripped with claws in Namorrodor's jaws "Everything's getting hairy," no doubt, brother And if things don't change, somebody's getting buried [Chorus: Briggs & Trials] You wanna take this home? (Yeah) Where it at though? I don't know Where it at though? I don't know They put a bed in a cell and they call that home You wanna take this home? (Yeah) Where it at though? I don't know Where it at though? I don't know And when I find that, leave it all behind and then I go [Verse 4: Trials] Yeah, I stay clever to the man Hip to the game, watch them reclaim Saw them speak up, watch them detained Again, again, again, again [Verse 5: Briggs] They claim brotherhood, but never act how a brother would Put it on my name, we ain't the same, get it understood And pass the nulla nulla to the other fulla [Verse 6: Trials] See, love is good, but love is blind You got pride in what, son? Leaving kids behind until they die and the rest getting locked up? Nah, we making change, no question Call myself Trials 'cause my people don't get them [Bridge: Briggs & Trials] Take me home Take me home, where I live Where I love, where I fight, where I feel Take me home, where I live Where I love, where I fight, where I feel Take me home, where I live Where I love, where I fight, where I feel Take me home, where I live Where I love, where I fight, where I feel Take me home, where I live Where I love, where I fight, where I feel Take me home (Yo, Cleverman) [Chorus: Briggs & Trials] You wanna take this home? Where it at though? I don't know Where it at though? I don't know They put a bed in a cell and they call that home You wanna take this home? Where it at though? I don't know Where it at though? I don't know And when I find that, leave it all behind and then I go [Outro: Trials] Play me out, brother (Yo, Cleverman!)
