A.b. Original Take Me Home Lyrics

[Verse 1: Briggs & Trials]
You can't contain my authority, restrain the minority
Take the hand, everybody would follow me
From a long line of leaders and warriors
I pathed the path through the face of intolerance
Through the face of a colonist, half-arsed apologist
Celebrating death on Australia Day
More they making a change, more they staying the same
In a blink watch an officer turn into a coroner
You ain't got the balls to walk these corridors
Rip the claws in Namorrodor's jaws
"Everything's getting heavy," no doubt brother
And if things don't change somebody's getting buried

[Chorus: Briggs & Trials]
You wanna take us home? (Yeah)
Where it at though? I don't know
Where it at though? I don't know
They put a bed in a cell and they call that home
You wanna take us home? (Yeah)
Where it at though? I don't know
Where it at though? I don't know
And when I find out, leave it all behind and then I go

[Verse 2: Briggs & Trials]
Yeah, I stay clever to the man
Hip to the game, watched every claim
Saw them speak up, watch them detained
Again, again, again, again
They claim brotherhood, but never act how a brother would Put it on my name, we ain't the same, get it understood
And pass a nulla nulla to the other fulla
See, love is cool, but love is blind
You got pride in what son? Leaving kids behind
Until they die and the rest getting locked up
Nah, we making change, no question
Call myself Trials 'cause my people don't get them
[Bridge: Briggs & Trials]
Take me home
Take me home, where I live
Where I love, where I fight, where I feel
Take me home, where I live
Where I love, where I fight, where I feel
Take me home, where I live
Where I love, where I fight, where I feel
Take me home, where I live
Where I love, where I fight, where I feel
Take me home, where I live
Where I love, where I fight, where I feel
Take me home
(Yo Cleverman)

[Chorus: Briggs & Trials]
You wanna take us home?
Where it at though? I don't know
Where it at though? I don't know
They put a bed in a cell and they call that home
You wanna take us home?
Where it at though? I don't know
Where it at though? I don't know
And when I find out, leave it all behind and then I go

[Outro: Trials]
Play me out, brother (Yo, Cleverman!)
