about

This is a song that was written with the thought in mind of the recent discoveries of the many sites of unmarked graves of residential schools all across Canada. In honour of the perished in these horrible schools of death, abuse and forced assimilation; we CHÜZO dedicate this song to the memory of all the murdered and the missing that never had the chance to return home to their loving families. We hope that this song someway, somehow; gives a moral retribution of sort to the family members and to the survivors, as well as, aligning ourselves with the majority of Canadians that beg, cry and scream for justice to be done and to hold the Canadian government and the catholic church accountable for their actions and lack of transparency. May all those children rest in peace.

lyrics

DEATHS!
THAT MARK A PAINFUL PAST!
BODIES BURIED IN MASS!
UNMARKED GRAVES HAVE NO VOICE!!
THEY TELL NO TALES!
YOUTH!
FORCED TO FORGET THEIR ROOTS!
RIPPED FROM ALL THAT THEY KNEW!
UNMARKED GRAVES HAVE NO VOICE!
THEY TELL NO TALES!

CONCENTRATION OF ONE RACE WITH INTENTION TO KILL OR ABSORB!
PHYSICAL AND SEXUAL ABUSE AT THE HANDS OF THOSE SUPPOSED TO PROTECT THEM!
THEIR GRAVES A SHAMEFUL REMINDER OF THE INJUSTICES THEIR PEOPLE HAVE FACED!
STRIPPED FROM THEIR CULTURE MISTREATED AND ABUSED!

ROLLS WERE PLAYED!
STILL JUSTICE REMAINS DELAYED!
FOR CULTURAL GENOCIDE!
JUSTICE DENIED!
THE CRIES OF THE INNOCENT ONES!
FOREVER BURIED AS ONE!
NO HOLY APOLOGY!
WON’T FORGIVE THIS TRAGEDY!

ALL NATIVE BLOOD!
THE PRICE TO BUILD THIS NATION!
FORGOTTEN ONES!
PERISHED IN SUFFOCATION!
WRETCHED CRIMES!
ALL IN THE NAME OF GOD!
ENDLESS SIGNS!
THE INDIFFERENCE OF US ALL!
ON OUR END TIMES!
WE MUST CONFRONT OUR PAST!
NO MORE LIES!
NO MORE FAKE INTENTIONS!

A PACT OF SILENCE THAT RULES IN THE CHURCH; SINISTER AND CORRUPT!
ASSIMILATION FORCED ONTO CHILDREN TAKEN FROM THEIR HOMES!
SINCE THE 1800’S THIS COUNTRY HAS AIDED WITH THESE ATROCITIES!
AND NOW WE ALL MUST BEG FOR THEIR FORGIVENESS!

DEATHS!
THAT MARK A PAINFUL PAST!
BODIES BURIED IN MASS!
UNMARKED GRAVES HAVE NO VOICE!
THEY TELL NO TALES!
YOUTH!
FORCED TO FORGET THEIR ROOTS!
RIPPED FROM ALL THAT THEY KNEW!
UNMARKED GRAVES HAVE NO VOICE!
THEY TELL NO TALES!

ALL NATIVE BLOOD!
THE PRICE TO BUILD THIS NATION!
FORGOTTEN ONES!
PERISHED IN SUFFOCATION!
WRETCHED CRIMES!
ALL IN THE NAME OF GOD!
ENDLESS SIGNS!
THE INDIFFERENCE OF US ALL!
ON OUR END TIMES!
WE MUST CONFRONT OUR PAST!
NO MORE LIES!
NO MORE FAKE INTENTIONS!



THE PASSAGE OF TIME!
WILL NOT ERASE THE SUFFERING!
UNBURY THEM!
UNBURY THEM ALL!!!!!
