LYRICS:
Rez kids
Repping A-Town
Voices of the youth
Can't turn us down
qʷayac̓iik run in packs
But you all alone
Cause drinking from the bottles all you've ever shown me !
Who we be?
Maaqtusiis
The Ahousaht way
Community
Guard points like Louis
M.V.P
This is Ahousaht
This ain't BC
At the Potlatch
Cedar headbands
Black and red shawls
Song and dance to understand
Hydraulics on a boat seat
Catch me crashing through the waves
Rapping on a beat
What we eat?
Throw the crab in the heat
Navigate the currents like a well known street
Looking at the ocean
Staring at the clouds
Thankful for the land
Native born
Feeling proud
