    #Briggs #Shadows #HipHop
    I see shadows on the hill
    Up beside the old saw mill
    Where my people were killed
    I see shadows on the hill
    I see the shadows, I see the gallows
    What happens in the deep washes in the shallows
    They don’t wanna speak about the first battles
    They can only see when they’re lookin down the barrel
    I see the shadows, I hear the shots
    I feel the spirit from the fight that never stopped
    They wanna talk about how far we got
    Where the bodies dropped they built a fuckin parking lot
    And they call that survival
    Put us on a mission, force fed us bibles
    They put statues on our land just to worship false idols
    Cuffs on our hands just to keep us in the cycle
    Blood on their hands
    Bodies at their feet
    And as a warning they gon hang em from the trees
    Named for the banks, rivers and streets
    Nah the shadows never leave no justice no peace
    I see shadows on the hill
    Up beside the old saw mill
    Where my people were killed
    I see shadows on the hill
    I’m the product of resistance, I embody who survived
    I’m the strength of that spirit, I’m the voice of who have died
    Who the fuck are you to civilize?
    Nah we can’t rely what you recall I hear your words I see your lies
    And in the dead of night you can hear those babies cry
    You can feel those eyes from the banks where they lay beside
    Feel it in your spine when you know ya not alone
    Shine bright for the shadows make it home
    In around the granite stones
    They forever be alone
    Their killers get off free
    But their shadows never leave
    I see shadows on the hill
    Up beside the old saw mill
    Where my people were killed
    I see shadows on the hill
    I see shadows on the hill
    Up beside the old saw mill
    Where my people were killed
    I see shadows on the hill

    This song gives me chills every time I listen to it. I love the powerful storytelling, the courage to call out our Australian colonisation history, and blending the majesty and magic of Aborignal culture with such painful experiences. Thank you for this song and you music!

    U.S.A here. After watching the movie talk to me (set in Australia) I believe. The soundtrack featured some hip hop artist and it sounded good. I decided to type in Australian rap on spotify and briggs popped up. This song and bad apples are my fave so far. I have since been bumping Briggs while at work. Everyones asking who this is lol

    stunning song, from a long tradition of oral history.
    reposted as i'm doing a bit of a black history month, since Naidoc week was a Day in musgrave park this year,
    + taking it ethereal. You're up there with the absolute best,
    and I'm sure it will be appreciated on the brook under some ancient gums on yuggerra country some dawn soon.

    @mccauleyization Před 2 lety +1

    ... and do the crosses on the hill - mark the places of the crucified and the crucifications? - the crosses on the burning hill - up behind the old saw mill - lynched by mobs of civilisers shoving bibles down their throats ? Rap is a black man's drum beat all laid out in straight lines vertical and horizontal and utterly predictable. I've heard this rap poem done in lots a forms appropriated from the invaders stoking discontent amongst the masses with vast exaggerations and creeping assumptions - more anarchist hate speech without solutions - more communist than Aboriginal the voice of the new Indigenous rent seekers ...

    • @tasillk2824
      @tasillk2824 Před 2 lety +7

      Bruh idk what your problem is but the crosses are a map of confirmed massacres of indigenous peoples before 1930 like those that Macquarie carried out
