You don’t know me
You don’t like me
I been reading
What you’re writing
At 4am you got a lot to say
On a social media page
I can’t reason with you
I can’t reason with you
I guess that’s why, you’re irrelevant
I guess that’s why, nobody cares what you say
GATEKEEPER! YOU DONT DECIDE!

Famous artist

Why would we knock each other down?
Is every neechie for themselves?
That’s not what I was taught
Thats not what I was taught
It makes me so mad
Gets me so sad
I can’t believe what I am hearing
I can’t believe what I am seeing
When I am looking in the mirror
You got me doubting what I see
Is that an NDN? NDN enough? Am I enough?
I guess that’s why I kept my mouth shut
I guess that’s why it’s so hard not to care what you say
GATEKEEPER! YOU DON’T DECIDE!
NO GATEKEEPER!

I’m always moving slow
Maybe you didn’t know
Pretend I’m moving fast, like wind is at my back
Like I got somewhere to go
Maybe it’s all a show
Maybe you didn’t know
Pretend I’m moving fast, like I just c-c-can’t
I just can’t let it go
I’m so young
My heart is on fire
It’s the best thing ever happened to me
Best thing ever happened
I’m so young
My heart is on fire
It’s the best thing ever happened to me
Best thing ever happened
So many feelings bubbling up inside
I can’t contain them I am busting at the seems
of my skinny black jeans
I wanna scream I wanna scream I wanna scream
That I don’t know who I am
I don’t know who I am or what I’m doing
So many feelings bubbling up inside
I tried to act like I was I was in control
I tried to get a hold
I really tried I really tried
Makes me wanna do things I never would
Now I’m doing things I never would
I’m so young
My heart is on fire
It’s the best thing ever happened to me
Best thing ever happened
I’m so young
My heart is on fire
It’s the best thing ever happened to me
Best thing ever happened
I don’t wanna fight this feeling!
It tells me everything I need is in my reach right now
I don’t wanna fight this feeling!
It tells me everything I need is in my reach right now
I’m so young
My heart is on fire
I’m so young
My heart is on fire
I’m so young
My heart is on fire
It’s the best thing ever happened to me
Best thing ever happened
Best thing ever happened
I’m so young

September 19 2005
The last day my dad was alive, I think
Woke up on a band room floor
On tour in Vancouver
A knock at the door
I had no cell phone
“Your father is missing.”
He was working outside of his lands
North of the secwepemc’u’lecw
On his way home to my mother
One flat tire
7km back to camp
One meme7 r skemcis
Two skemcesíselt
One meme7 r skemcis
Two skemcesíselt
… Xyum
I WAS 21 WHEN YOU TOOK EVERYTHING FROM ME
I WAS 21 WHEN YOU TOOK EVERYTHING FROM ME
Many years later skemcis visited me
By a cold clear river
The same one I think where my dad called my mom to say
Hey handsome. I’m gonna see you soon.
Skemcis visited me up paradise
Passed toby creek and the pink fireweed
And she said to me
Me7 kecstin tek stem
I will give you something
Me7 kecstin tek stem
I said kuckstétsme
Kuckstétsme skemcis
Give it to me
Give it to me, bear

Two cubs for my father
