about

The Nomadics' song Rebellion, is another taste from their forthcoming second album, Green Shoots From Dead Wood. Rebellion is a catchy, anthemic song that emerged out of the Black Summer of 2020 when Australia was on fire and is, as a result, an edgier release for the married team of Bec Schofield and Dave Mann. Backed by an emotive music video, Rebellion undulates with passionate, folk-hop vocals and soulful three-part harmonies over a funky upright bass, insistent drums and guitar solos wrapped within an overall infectious groove.

lyrics

REBELLION

I smell foul silt from industrial age,
while you shame us all on the world stage
you’re actin blind putting future in a grave
deny the truth, deny the brave
rebellion
Poisoned the breeze with ferocious speed
entire balance in jeopardy
torn songlines with longlines and arrogant greed
raping sacred with monopolies
rebellion

Chorus You don’t speak for me

Our kiwi neighbours showing how its done ..
making peace with first nations, trust over guns
they’re taking action
for future generations
I hear the nannas ringing the bells
alarm is raised 100 decibels
all we want is to prevent hell
you spend millions tryin to quell
rebellion

Chorus You don’t speak for me …
………………………………………………….
I see flags waving there will be millions more
the voice of resistance won’t be ignored
the youth are a wedge in and a rapidly closing door..….
Rebellion x 3
Chorus You don’t speak for me x 2
