Do you trust what your eyes see? Best learn to P-E-E-L... Then you ean tell the false from the real. Trust your Na'au, the koko that runs thru your veins Hawaiians lokahi, hold onto your reins. Actions done wrong must first fall apart Actions done out of greed for kala, not those of the heart. The terrorists keep striking (State, DHHL, DLNR/County) And use our "own" kind To do their 'dirty work,' Cause confusion of minds Against our Hawaiians ever strong, protesting/arrested for what's right While the State/County conspire using weapons — shows their might? And their L-I-E-S, used legally, in courtroom fight. Even HONESTY and TRUTH, though they go hand in hand Hawaiians shot down in courtrooms, civil rights really banned! And what of newspaper news, anyone ean tell stories, doesn't make it true!! And the T.V. News, one-sided views, Exploit Hawaiians Evicted,

Send you where they choose... The message sent out leads only to doubt. Seeing armed men, brutality and shouts Harming their neighbors, 'ohana, na keiki wonder what it's all about! So why take a stand?!! Cause it's time to remand (send back) Continued atrocities done upon Hawaiians throughout our lands. Communities awaken, 'NOW', take your stand 'Cause the thieves keep stealing, not only our lands, Trust your own thinking of what's right for you Feel from your gut what you need to do... Follow through. Our Ancestors live through us, Be courageous, be Bold. Live in halanee, your Story will unfold, Trust Yourselves, Be Hawaiian, UPHOLD your kuleana, whether young or old!
