Naidoc Week

Aboriginal are original
The aspect of NAIDOC Week is to respect
You have to respect to connect with Aboriginals
Their culture was put through torture

The Indigenous came in variety of groups
But the society rejected them
But the past was forgotten
The flag should be at half mast
On NAIDOC Week

If Australia wants to connect people have to respect
On the first week of July
NAIDOC Week starts to fly
Everyone needs to learn to respect

Aboriginals only want to respect the land and protect the sprits around them
The past will always last

If Australia wants to connect people have to respect
Remember on the first week of July
NAIDOC Week starts to fly
