Lahaina Lives On Lyrics

I keep snoozing my alarm clock

Can't seem to shake this off

My mind wants to wake up

But my heads tired as rock now

It's hard sometimes to make it through

Just to keep a smile on my face

So much devastation

That's been burning up my homeland, yeah

They took our water to grow their crops

Left us dried up to pay the cost

When the storm came and power down

Spark the west side, lahaina town

Will live on, will live on

Maui stay strong, maui stay strong

I remember when i was a baby

Chillen with my mom on the sand

The clear blue water, sunniest days

Aunty Bonz was the surf class

In high school we used have all our fun

Dressing up for junior prom

Can't forget bout that year we run front street

Halloween was pure maadness

So much memories you can't erase

So much history you can't replace

Love goes out, i keep my prayers long

We stick together lahaina town

Will live on, will live on

Maui stay strong, maui stay strong

The first capital of the hawaiian kingdom

Kings and queens they're resting safe and sound

Fought off the whalers for fishing ground

Westside stand up proud

We faced growth rapidly

And commercialization still actively

Pushing our people to the brink of poverty

And you wonder why we ball out sovereignty

When the people suffer and no body else is around

Red cross, no fema, no government come and clean up

Over and over again, we showing all the world our love

Love one another, cause kanaka maoli is the true survivor

Live on, we'll live on

Maui stay strong, maui stay strong
