battal - they stole my name. lyrics
[verse 1]
as a kid i was told
change yourself to belong
to this place where they don’t
even want you to come
change your nose
change your face
change your ways
change your place
change the way that you speak
cause they don’t understand
a word that you say
speak the language they have
and they’ll take yours from you
they’ll take all that you have
your culture, your language, the ways that you live
destroy your belongings and hate you for it
[chorus]
they stole my name
all that you have is all that i had
cuz my name’s got background
my name’s got history
and my name is culturе
that you stole away
[verse 2]
i’ll take my own path
i’ll choose my own way
causе i’m more important
than anyone else
i’ll steal back what once was mine
for my roots, and for my past
for my name, it’s mine to last
won’t let them have the last say
it’s not written in my i_d
who they forced me to be
i reclaim my identity
and get back to who i was
i won’t let me be defined
by no standards
nothing altered to be classified
as something like a criminal
[chorus]
they stole my name
all that you have is all that i had
cuz my name’s got background
my name’s got history
and my name is culture
that you stole away
[bridge]
my traditions been frayed
until the last one has prayed
for my legacy is sold
and my voice been controlled
our music, art, our stories
our scales, dance and tales
what once belonged to us will be ours again
[chorus]
they stole my name
all that you have is all that i had
cuz my name’s got background
my name’s got history
and my name is culture
that you stole away
