lirik lagu troy kingi - moko
[verse 1]
this language is visual
language of our blood
speaks levels
without any words
handed down
by our forefathers
to give us a glimpse
of who we really are
[chorus]
i’m talking about moko
tā moko
i’m talking about moko
this ain’t no tattoo
etched into our skin
and found deep within
we wear our pride on the outside
and walk with our tūpuna side by side
[verse 2]
it’s lost on our youth
there’s no respect
i’m witnessing the death of our culture
this generation’s fibre is being destroyed
not going for loose
it’s deeper than the skin
i just want to carry my whakapapa
no matter what country i’m in
[chorus]
i’m talking about moko
tā moko
i’m talking about moko
this ain’t no tattoo
etched into our skin
and found deep within
we wear our pride on the outside
and walk with our tūpuna side by side
[bridge]
oh oh moko got soul
oh oh i’ll always be home
always be home
oh oh moko got soul
oh oh i’ll always be home
always be home
[verse 3]
tell the machine what to do
the chisel controls you
the tools of our ancestors
here to carve a new you
alot of our being
is dying with our elders
things need to change
if we’re to return to a golden age
[chorus]
i’m talking about moko
tā moko
i’m talking about moko
this ain’t no tattoo
etched into our skin
and found deep within
we wear our pride on the outside
and walk with our tūpuna side by side
