It is not a means to an end it is our means to the future It is not about financial growth, it is not about political clout

 These things will come as they must But nationhood is about whom we are, who our children are It is the recognition that we were and are a nation unto ourselves Our nation stems from our shared history, culture, language and values First and foremost we are brothers and sisters, families No boundaries of land or government tactics have ever stopped me from being your brother

We have been apart for some time, but no more It is not right to keep our families, our communities apart So we will walk together, we will rejuvenate our nation We will take the first step to the past, a past that will ensure our future Our first step must be one of education, education of our shared history

Our elders can provide this knowledge We must walk before we run, we must remember and teach But we must not wait, our people want this, our children need this All of our internal issues all our external issues will be resolved in time Our fights will be many, but we will win, for we must Nationhood is not a means to an end It is the path to our people’s future
