Lyrics
45 Blood....Diamond..... VorTeX 45
[Intro]**
Yeah, this one’s for the healers
For the knowledge keepers
For the bush doctors
Let’s set the story straight
**[Verse 1]**
Before the white coats, before the pill in a pack
Mob had the answers, every leaf, every track
Bush medicine strong, from the desert to the trees
Kakadu plum, gum leaf, cure with a breeze
Grandmothers mixing up the roots and the bark
Healing every wound, every fever, every mark
Army came in, took the leaves from our hands
Said it’s “witchcraft,” put a stop to our plans
Burned the old knowledge, told us “that’s not allowed”
Locked up the healers, tried to silence the crowd
Banned the old ways, pushed the mob to the side
Said “trust the white tablets,” let our culture just die
But the knowledge survived, hidden deep in the heart
Passed down in whispers, kept alive in the dark
**[Hook]**
They stole the leaves, they stole the cure
Called it illegal, but our medicine’s pure
Big Pharma moved in, said “it’s all in your head”
But the mob been healing since the Dreaming began
They stole the leaves, they stole the cure
Called it illegal, but our medicine’s pure
Monopolised health, but the spirit don’t break
Mob’s still got the secrets they can never remake
**[Verse 2]**
Now they patent our plants, make a fortune off the land
But won’t pay respect or acknowledge our hand
Every bush remedy, every ancient brew
Now got a barcode, but the knowledge ain’t new
Told us “take this pill,” but it made us more sick
Side effects, big checks, it’s a dirty old trick
Mob had the answers, but they hid ‘em away
Now chronic disease where the bush tucker lay
Government clinics, prescriptions on tap
But the real cure’s missing, buried under the map
Still see the aunties with the bottle and the leaves
Still smell the smoke when the city can’t breathe
Culture ain’t lost, just pushed underground
But the power in the bush is still waiting to be found
**[Hook]**
They stole the leaves, they stole the cure
Called it illegal, but our medicine’s pure
Big Pharma moved in, said “it’s all in your head”
But the mob been healing since the Dreaming began
They stole the leaves, they stole the cure
Called it illegal, but our medicine’s pure
Monopolised health, but the spirit don’t break
Mob’s still got the secrets they can never remake
**[Outro]**
So next time you’re sick, don’t forget where it’s from
It’s the mob’s old knowledge, not a pill or a crumb
They can ban what they want, but the truth always wins
Bush medicine’s forever, running deep in our skins
