Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Welcome to my country
Welcome to my home
You could stay forever
You won't leave it alone
[Verse 2]
Welcome to the bush
Take what you may need
When shove comes to push
Will he ask you to leave?
[Chorus]
I can't let go of the painted desert
I can't let go of the old way
I can't let go of the homeland
It's in the blood, I can't let go
[Instrumental]
I can stand up through your destruction
My voice will tremble
My hands will shake
Yes, I can stand up through your destruction
I won't break
I won't break
[Verse 3]
I could hear the voices
I could hear the voices
Coming through the night
[Chorus]
I can't let go of the painted desert
I can't let go of the old way
I can't let go of the homeland
It's in the blood, I can't let go
[Bridge]
Sweat it out
Let it out
Sweat it out
Let it out
Get it outta my head
[Instrumental]
I can't let go of the painted desert
I can't let go of the old way
I can't let go of the ancient ways
It's in the blood, I can't let go
It's in the blood
It's in the blood, I can't let go
