The Greatest Glory In Living, Lies Not In Never Falling... But In Rising Everytime We Fall...

TRIBAL BIRTH
You came to our land and took it Devastation to our people you knew it You thought that by putting us away We should be here to obey
Your every command and demand You had the right to disband You didn't once try to see That we are a special race put here
By our almighty one and Mother Earth Who gave each of us our tribal birth Aboriginal Australia has a myth of its own Our Land Our Culture Our Mother Home
Let us once more be in peace Do not let this discrimination increase Each one of us put on this earth All have Our Rights Our Land Our Tribal Birth.

PROUD MURRI
I'm proud to be a Murri, proud to be a true Australian. I'm proud of my culture, my heritage, that's what makes me who I am.
My father, he Wiri, my mother Ghungalu woman. But all we are family, we are all one of many men. I'm proud to be a Murri, I'm not ashamed of who I am.
I'm not one of those gammon Murris who think they're only half. When I hear people talk like that, I just look at them an laugh.
Did I tell you I'm living as a proud Murri, I'll die as one too. All the way from Bluff, real Murri through and through.
But ashamed I don't know my culture as well as I would like. I guess that's my regret, not knowing my language and ways of living, that's my right.
But still, I'll stand ten feet tall when someone says 'who here belong to this country?' I'll jump up and say 'that's me mate,' I'm proud to be a Murri.

Why Did I Make U Blak???
God'z Answer:
I made you in the colour of coal, from which beautiful diamonds are formed, I made you in the colour of oil, the black gold which keeps people warm. Your colour is the same as rich dark soil, that grows the food you need..... Your colour is the same as the Black Stallion and Panther, OH what majestic creatures indeed........ All colours of the heavenly rainbow, can be found throughout every nation....... When all these colours are blended, you become my greatest creation! Your hair is the texture of lambs wool, such a beautiful creature is he....... I am the shepherd who watches them, I will always watch over thee! I put star glitter in your eyes..... There's a beautiful smile hidden behind your pain..... That's why your cheeks are so high! You are the colour of dark clouds, from the hurricanes i create in September...... I made your lips so full and thick, so when you kiss they will remember! Your stature is strong, your bone structure thick to withstand the burden of time..... The reflection you see in the mirror, the image that looks back, THAT IS MINE! So get off your knees, look in the mirror and tell me what you see? I didn't make you in the image of darkness...... I made you in the image of ME!!!!!!!!!
