Waiting for the Storm ft. Adrian Avendaño Lyrics

I am putting down pre-writtens like predestined

What I need to open my eyes and realize

The skies open up from gray to blue

For my kind

For my kind

We rise

We rise

Headed back from the prison ward

Waiting to get back into my apartment

And be heater vent warm

And I want to be calm

I am waiting for the storm

I am waiting for the storm

I am waiting for the storm

I am waiting for the storm

Lightning flash

I will bash

Any motherfucker interrupting our path

Welcome to the righteous wrath

The thing I have been tasked with

I ain't here to reach and grift

But instead use the pen to write over a rift

Between their systems and our resilience

Interrupted sacred mission by white supremacists

They are my enemy

I am here with levity

Inevitable like gravity

Anyone wanna take a stab at me

Catch a fist in the throat

I am wearing this long coat

At home receiving grant money

To pay for my necessities

And I ain't giving it back

Capitalism would have me feel bad

For getting what I needed

Forgetting where the real greed is

But that's them in their towers

System full of corruption-hungry cowards

Fearful to lose they power

Ninety-nine percent of the destruction

Has me in a jail cell

Induction unit

Pandemic

Forcing their plans in

And I can't stand it

What I get for defending the land

These stands are grand

Those camps full of man

Full of wrath

What I get for defending the land

These stands are grand

Those camps full of man

Full of wrath

What I get for defending the land

These stands are grand

Those camps full of man

Full of wrath

Ancient new Secwepemc to Wetsuweten

Versus provincial elections being corrected

Their projected fallacious illusions

In APC tanks cruising

Targeting elders and women

Colonial systems malignant

Until we uproot it

We can't wait anymore

What we gonna get for defending the land

What we already get for defending the land

What we get for defending the land

These stands are grand

Those camps full of man

Full of wrath

Those camps full of man

Full of wrath

Full of man

Full of man

Full of man

Full of wrath

I call upon the storm

I call upon the storm
