(We are not Americans. We will never be Americans. We’re going to die as Hawaiians) (Verse 1) You wen come wit Bible, gun, an grin, Call us savage, say we full a sin. Take da queen, lock her in da room, Wave your flag an call it "boon." But dat one war, not invitation, You wen crush da sovereign nation. 1893, you broke da law— But you no like talk 'bout what you saw. (Chorus) We not American, nevah was, nevah will. Dis our ʻāina, we da people still. You wen take da flag, but not our soul, We still standin’, still stay whole. We not American, no mattah what you say, We Hawaiian—get out da way. (Verse 2) Missionary boy come wit fake aloha, Say our gods no good, like we get no moa. Brought one sickness, brought one lie, Said bow down, or you gon’ die. Den da tourists wen roll in deep, Take da land, den sell us cheap. Smile for da cam, dance hula fake, While real Hawaiians no can even make. (Chorus) We not American, nevah was, nevah will. Dis our ʻāina, we da people still. You wen take da flag, but not our soul, We still standin’, still stay whole. We not American, no mattah what you say, We Hawaiian—get out da way. (Verse 3) Thirty tourists fo' every one like me, They walk da beach, but they no see. See da mauna, see da pain, See da howlee name on da ʻāina again. .Dis da place where gods still stay, Not yours to own, not yours to pay. Hawaiʻi not for sale—make dat known, We rise as one, we not alone. (Bridge) No mo more leis fo da howlee hand, No more smiles when they take our land. No more "aloha" just fo sell, We still here, we still rebel. Dis da place where gods still stay, Not yours to own, not yours to pay. Hawaiʻi not for sale—make dat known, We rise as one, we not alone. (Final Chorus) We not American, nevah was, nevah will. Dis our ʻāina, we da people still. You wen take da flag, but not our soul, We still standin’, still stay whole. We not American, no mattah what you say, We Hawaiian—get out da way. (Outro) ("You like call us American. But we nevah choose dat. You wen steal da crown, jail da queen, ban da tongue. We nevah forget. We nevah forgive. We still here.")
