"Solid Rock, Sacred Ground 2022" lyrics

Out here nothing changes
Not in a hurry anyway
You can feel the endlessness
With the coming of the light of day
Talkin' about a chosen place
They want to sell it in the marketplace
Just a minute now

Standin' on solid rock
Standin' on sacred ground
Livin' on borrowed time
And the winds of change
Keep blowin' down the line

'Round about the dawn of time
Dreaming all began
Proud people come
Livin' in a promised land
Runnin' from a heart of darkness
Searching for a heart of light
This could be paradise

Standin' on solid rock
Standin' on sacred ground
Livin' on borrowed time
And the winds of change
Were blowin' cold that night

Standin' on the shore one day
Saw the white sails in the sun
Wasn't long before you felt the sting
White man, white law, white gun
Don't tell me it's justified
Cause somewhere, someone lied
But we're getting stronger now, stronger now

The terra nullius lie it spread like a cancer
Eddie Mabo brought truth, he brought law
He brought the answer
Go back to the Centre, deep into the heart
To truth and Treaty and then we'll all be standing on...

Puli kunpungka ngaranyi
Manta miil-miilpa katu
Nyuntu kurungka ngaranyi
Walpa kampa kutjuparinyi
Walpa pulkaringanyi

Solid rock
Standin' on sacred ground
Livin' on borrowed time
And the winds of change
Keep blowin' down the line
