Our land being invaded
Our women and children being taken
Rabbit-Proof Fence no escaping
Our Ancestors from Sky and Sea
Are who we thought we were inviting
Now it’s our history they are rewriting
Gifts disguised we’re being deceived
Alcohol blankets white man’s disease
Live like you instead of in harmony
With each other Flora Fauna and Mother Country
Murris put clay on their heads
Preparing for war preparing for death
Tribal warrior from long ago
Tribal warrior I stand alone
The Dreaming created me to be a nightmare
To these while Devilshare
I stand alone Pemelway this is my home I show no fear
Armed with knowledge of Country my Ancestral spirits and spear
I will show them a feverish nightmare fuelled Dreamtime warrior
For my People I am worrying
Land women and children taken from us
Culture art and stories thrown under the bus
Rainbow Prophecy a chosen few, who will your dollars feed
When poisoned is every river sea animal and tree birds and bees
Rise up like a phoenix bring our land back to us
Welcome to Country, now you’re one of us

In Victoria, the First Peoples’ Assembly of Victoria began negotiations with the Victorian government last year on Treaty, and legislation allowing this agreement is now in Parliament.
This is the story about a true hero, Mr Lawrence Murray, and I am honoured to be able to write this story for you to read.
The painting’s story is: we hunt the food that lives on this country as our ancestors did in the past and give thanks to the food and return what we can’t take, and the Spirit goes back to the land.
