LYRICS
Dakota Bear
These are the struggles we facing writing my story on pages
Free me from cages out of the maze, I need the sage not the need praises
I lost my dad so my momma she raised me
I need some guidance believe me life on the rez it ain’t easy
I lost my cousins my uncles my brother rest easy
Creator I need you to lead me I got so many I lost
My best friend crossed to the other side
All of the pain that it caused
I need to take some time my life on pause
I do my best for my people I give my all and this my calling
I been free falling
we got the problems and I can’t solve all them I got this weight on me please wait on me
The thunder birds coming please rain on me yeah set me free
This is for the youth that need just a little bit of hope yeah lean on me
but that’s the life when you’re living in the
REZ
breathing in the
REZ
dreaming in the
REZ
but that’s the life when you’re living in the
REZ
freezing in the
REZ
sleepless in the
REZ
REZ livin’
Mattmac
I’m in a fly in reserve, but so many choose to fly by
try to stay connected by but I’m barely getting wifi
poor conditions have me indifferent so why try
born with so little while so many keep a blind eye
not much to show you, but I got my voice to offer
house shortages and we still boiling water
isolated from the world but who the hell cares,
it’s that rez life gospel for those who felt scared
you heard of unmarked graves, yes the story hurts
but I got the strength from my Mom she’s a warrior
I’m broken inside, but finding ways to open my mind
been blowing smoke. yeah let’s skoforaride
but I’ve been chosen to rise and the pressure is real
cause the rez is a place where may dreams get killed
yeah there’s nothing to do, so as I sit my room
I'm holding on, hoping my dreams come true
but that’s the life when you’re living in the
REZ
breathing in the
REZ
dreaming in the
REZ
but that’s the life when you’re living in the
REZ
freezing in the
REZ
sleepless in the
REZ
REZ livin’
Okema
I breathe the smoke from the smudge, let it fill me with your love
All the weight on my shoulders I can feel you lift it up
Your my connection to the earth my connection to above
Your the whole universe, your the light your the love
With you by my side I know I'm not alone
Let the heat rise let the elder splash the stones
Sing another song bring my ancestors here
There telling me that we are strong we don't ever bend to fear
Creator I know hear my cries in my prayers
Everyday I pray for my natives
Wondering why that they hate us
But they will never ever break us
Cuz were protected never will forget this
Our ancestor sacrificed we respect this
We are blessed with guidance in their message
I stay connected especially on the rez ya
but that’s the life when you’re living in the
REZ
breathing in the
REZ
dreaming in the
REZ
but that’s the life when you’re living in the
REZ
freezing in the
REZ
sleepless in the

I'm from the UK and damn.......goosebumps all they way.....powerful
I'm very thankful to have found 3 great artists I'm not indigenous but this calls to me.. you can hear n see the injustice your ppl have suffered ...
There’s so much pain in the rez. Our ancestors suffered and sacrificed for us so we never give up. ✊🏽
Nothing makes me more pumped then seeing these native brothers using their talents in poetry in this music industry just remember we still here ! ✊🏾✊🏾
Pop pop pro po oo to
Richtig stark
Frr
Love from Aussie native 💪🏽
its a tough way to break out from where natives are but their voice is powerful
I know ppl who dislike this type Music bc it’s brutally honest. But you’re voice needs to be heard
To all my native brother and sisters, you're warriors, keep your head up and keep fighting.
Discovered Matt just yesterday. Brother, never stop, continue doing what you're doing and always keep your head up. Respect to all of you guys! Greetings from Greece!
😔
Love love love this! I'm from South Dakota, my grandma was dakota sioux, a member of the Sisseton Wahpeton tribe. I love when I find young natives getting out there and making a real impact. My best friend is locked up right now, got hit with some charges, he's native, I'm gonna send this to him, not sure if he gets youtube, but I'll find a way. He needs to hear this.
I’m from a reserve in Northern Manitoba as well , Rez life Ain’t easy as well I grew up without a dad and my mom was a single mother raising me and my sister all by herself and we struggle a lot financially and didn’t have no support from my or my sisters own dad and people tried to change to have a troubled life I didn’t let them.
But no matter how much times I’ve fell flat on my face I’ve always got back up right away and kept going!
Not enough native in my veins but love and respect to all Native Americans living in the Rez. Beautiful song ♥️🙏
Everything and everyone has a purpose 🌻
Rez life gets hard sometimes, but I wouldn’t trade it for the world. Nehiyaw for life ❤
a drop of native blood make you native!
I love hearing the powerful words these young Indigenous artists display. Keep creating 💯🙏🏽✊🏽🔥
So, I ain't nativeAmerican. But I can connect to so much and damn is it powerful

NICEEE I was listening it all day yesterday and I was like this song need to be made music video I am a musician too and I fell you really this guy mat really has my respect bro he really made the impossible possible it's so hard from his position and still his music is lit make more sad music it's better cya man

this song brings me to tears.. in a good way.. I feel these lyrics in my heart ❤️ y'all keep making music and putting on for our people ✊🏾🤎 I'll be listening for sure
Made me sad. You can hear the sadness and struggle in Matt's voice and the strength in all of them.💪🏾💪🏾💪🏾
Facts this song is powerful,it helps me cope with something's.🙏🏽❤️
Made me hopeful
Why sad? Fu k that we cannot do anything positive with emotion!!! Let’s act and put some of the “im oppressed” away and give the. The love they deserve!! It’s sad all we hear is black, trans but never NATIVE, INDIGENOUS… we need love brother and I promise the day me and my family make it, I’m bringing you all with me! I promise that, creator willing!!!!
No disrespect to ya. Just saying sadness never solves anything …
I’m a Mexican that ended up on the Rez at 11 and now I’m 19 and I’ve seen so many relatable things in this song on my Rez. Much love to you guys. #ROCKCREEK
#HUNKPAPA
I’m full blooded Cree. I love and respect the Mexican people. It’s almost like we’re related.
I just heard a clip of this on tick-tock this is going round fast 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Showing love from New Mexico the struggle is real but its not forever our ppl will make it as they always have!!!
Lol ur women need to be breed
“Never be ashamed of a scar, it simply means you were stronger than whatever tried to hurt you”.
Also the chorus is really nice.
I'm from Spokane Washington area,
This song is on repeat lately , holy shit, You can feel all there emotion through all the lyrics. Sick ass song
The natives are starting a revolution
The revolution is alive I protest it everyday ❤️ no matter what proud apache n mohawk 💯
Fuck the haters you guys keep doing your thing much love and respect 💪🏽
I play this everyday, I listen and soak in every word, I relate cuz no matter where you from or who you are,we go through shit that hits different. My love goes out to our natives who suffered in the robbery of their precious land which they mothered dearly.
Long live our real founding fathers... The true bloodlines of America..... #Rez life

My brother i don't know the rez... but I have had my own struggles on the streets of Toronto and I've seen lots . This song broke me down into tears it spoke to me so deep and made me feel the reality of the situations we all live in .much love keep it up brother much love .
BIG TUNE !!!!
Amazing glad there is another native giving us someone to listen to. We are proud of you our anester are proud as well. It would be amazing if there was a blind fury duet
Stop using our hip hop make ur own muisc
@@senpai704 it white boys hip hop what you mean they took it from you like they took everything from us we in the same boat my guy. And we do have our own music try listening to blacklodge you might like it!
This is just like the places the first people of Australia live, segregated from colonisers, in small, cheap homes, struggling, losing eachother, trying to keep hold of their dreams even though their environment is not helpful to their dreams, I didn't know it was so hard out there too :( I'm glad I heard this message, I don't think governments like first people..but you are so strong, beautiful, talented and brave, and full of other great qualities, I wish the best for you all and love you all. The world feels way brighter with your voices spreading around it
This song is dope. Peace to all culture.
Wow!!! Incredible!!! I lived in the Dakotas for about 5 years and had the privilege of working with and becoming friends with Oglagla Sioux that grew up on the Rosebud rez in SD. I met even more in treatment at Keystone in Canton, SD. There is and always will be a spot in my heart for the Native American people, especially the Lakota. The Black Hills belong to them. Period.
A'HO...!! THIS IS DOPE AS HELL FOR REAL...MY BROTHER'S!! MUCH LOVE & UTMOST RESPECT TO YOU ALL FOR THESE DEEP FLOWS!!
RED LAKE REZ, MN.
