Mia Dyson This Country song lyrics

This country isn't mine

It was stolen 'fore my time

By folks that look like me

I was born of their legacy

And my heart does surely freeze

From the stories that I read

Of the children and their mothers

Kicked to death, buried to their shoulders

Mend baby mend

Heal child heal

Mend baby mend

Heal child heal

Every year that comes around

We line the streets standing proud

We honour fallen men

Hands on our hearts 'lest we forget'

But in the pages we demand

That the folks who lost their land

Children stolen history banned

Should forget and move on now

Mend baby mend

Heal child heal

Mend baby mend

Heal child heal
