This is a man who is crying for change. If you are listening to this please understand what a crying soul sounds like for those who don't have faith or hope. This is the sound of a soul
Exactly and the reason it resonates with me and I've been singing it as load as my vocal cords will allow Me and most impressively important is that hes been singing it for over a decade . Me 8+ beautifully hopeful yrs!!!
Every single person that listens to xavier rudd is a freedom fighter. You all have a beautiful soul and a strong heart. His music brings us together and we actually fucking "get it". We MUST fight to give our planet back to Mother Earth. Governments think they OWN the place. Governments fucking stole her land and rapping her. We are standing by watching this happen and we know it's wrong. Time to stand up, band together and let's clean up this corrupt fucking system and give her back. Freedom, peace, love and light
Thank you so much for your comment! And here we are 3 years after it! ;-) Mother Earth takes back its rights! System collapses to make way for a better world... LOVE - LIGHT - PEACE :-)
I'm ready for the collapse. I know I have sisters and brothers who are as well. Stay ready with an open mind and an open heart. We are about to be upon a time where healers of the organism we call Earth will be needed in great demand. Keep educating our young to respect our home and stay passionate of the skills from many moons before us that got us here
We all come from the same place. We come from by the sea. We go where the music takes us. We go to our destiny. This destiny is not normal. It’s a place where nothing is as it seems. It’s the place the music makers go. It’s where the children dream there dreams. If not us. Who? If not now. When?
Omg..this song reduces me to tears. So many people have turned a blind eye to the treatment of our people & this beautiful soul tells our story with such heartfelt lyrics & tone.
This made me cry,,,, I am trying to Save this World, mostly to Save the Children,, Just One Of These Songs At A Time….. Thank You So Much For Your Words and Your Most Beautiful Voice❤
Thank you, thank you, thank you share awareness of the truth that has been hidden from us all,. Beautiful one you saw it with your own eyes. Blessings of eternal love, peace, happiness and purity to all. 🙏
Heard this for the first time at Xavier's Townsville concert last night and it is just so beautiful it brought tears to my own eyes. Love this man so so much! -3
I was in Ashland one summer, I thought I saw him once. I went to a Hindu I forget what it was called. I was something then long hair beard. People would bless me without looking. The spirit as I awoke told me. You are the rememberance of Jesus Christ in the living flesh."
I've seen it in my own eyes and how often people out of luck and invisible to the fearfully prosperous on the streets of our city streets today invisible passed by screaming out we can love again the peoples tears at night tell the story and Buddha became enlightened to alleviate the suffering of the world. May all beings be free of sufferings and causes of suffering and that is part of the four noble truths...... I love Xavier Rudd and yet that is too used a word to appreciate his genuine art of love of humanity and Earth... Our Aboriginal Ancestries he respects and he is the messenger so I am very thank full for such a brilliant light on the earth.💥💦💟
moved me to tears when he played this at Byron Bluesfest. One sincere muso who puts more than his money where his mouth is. Thanks Xavier for your presence at the Bentley csg blockade. People power won in the end. "We knew it was true!"
Just got back from Uluru. Not to climb and take happy snaps, but to understand and connect to the energy of the place. I learned a lot, but nothing more than the indigenous and the land cannot be separated - they are symbiotic. It is their land and theirs alone. Couldn't stop listening to this while there. Been listening to Xav since "To Let" was released and feel like I've been on the journey with him. So impressed to see his message evolve and its truth not be swayed by his popularity.
+Monkeysee Monkeydo Every one makes mistakes, it's what makes us human. The important thing is that we learn from those mistakes and allow it to make us grow even stronger. However, If we continue make the same mistakes over and over, life will continue to giving us painful lessons until we learn them.
Come On People and Comment.. only 11 hallow numbed souls gave this a thumbs down.. that means many of you were moved by this but did not take the time to comment.. I know it seems like a waste of time but you must Know the power of your intentions to change things & to realize that we are All generators of our reality.. what you intend is so much more powerful than you "know".. get yourselves in Gear and Make some Medicine for our dying planet while you have Breath to do so.. all that will remain is what you intended to create w/your energy when it is all said and done.. Where have you placed your Real "Currency" of Intent lately ? Namaste
We all see it with our own eyes every single day. I wish for you to live the life you're living. It's worth every penny to stand up against all the wrongs in this world and turn it around. Blessings!
This is the first song I ever heard of his, live at Byron Bay Blues Fest 2011. I was absolutely struck by it, so glad to finally find a solid recording online. There was a great audio version with Dallas Frasca but it wasn't a great quality recording so I'm glad this is here. I wouldn't mind buying a DVD of the whole show actually.
All who rebel in action and song to the men who merchandise Earth's people and wealth are my family but I call Xavier my Brother in arms against those who would continue to ERASE Truth and insert "history".. May Xavier's angels keep him in all his ways from those who would silence him & may they be made aware that his "security" is beyond their reach on all fronts & that their intents are known by they who will ultimately bring Justice to this world of so many "laws".. I love Xavier and he remains on my heart.. may he be upon your hearts also.. Namaste
randywatchingbush Perfectly expressed my friend.. My greatest hope is that the people of the world will turn to see.. My greatest fear is that it`s too late... Namaste my brother
The only thing that brings tears to my eyes as much as this song are some of the heartfelt comments on this feed. Went to Oz years ago and loved the peeps very much. This man is very Australia indeed, but his message is universal gold. Thanks XR! Godspeed!
This is such an amazing song. Everything in this is true. Xavier Rudd, your my number 1. idol. Keep making your wonderful, meaningful, good vibed music, peace brother.
I wani to tell you that I love you, cannot fall in love with the music without loving the artist. A difficult lesson to realize. I listened to Xavier Rudd for Four years was almost momogomous.
Should check out the song Expectations, ir Or Lord Huron, The night We Met. Thank you. What do you believe? Did you ever betray yourself? I somehow don't believe you could.
Thank you brother your voice is truly amazing i listen to this everyday and I mean every single day and I shed a tear on most of them i lay my 18 month old son on my chest and play this to him it’s so soothing and has a great story and meaning behind. So I tip my hat to you legend you’re truly one of a kind, much love 💜
I love this world so brilliant place to live, and I'm so exciting about what's coming up next and next in this beautiful journey!And xavier is one very special human as all we are,so just keep doing this journey worth of fighting ,and never change your honest soul!
Inspirational and beautiful song! You are such a conscious man, thanks for waking up people and protecting our beautiful mother 🌍 All the way from France! Thanks you
Since I was just a little boy, I’ve been wondering why This great old culture we should be helping to heal is so often pushed aside So many children taken away, so much abuse and rape When will it be high priority to educate and make some real change? I’ve seen it in communities, so many that it’s hard to believe Elders speaking wisdom, far beyond what they choose to teach in history And young hearts just drinking it away, understanding why their culture was so shamed Waiting for a reason, what was taken off still hasn’t been replaced My own eyes... I saw it with my own eyes I did, I did (yeah, I did) That’s why I know this is true (yeah, it’s true) I’ve seen it down in sacred Tassie Where they’re cutting all those big old trees Forty-four football fields a day is what they clear and ain’t that hard to believe? And all for the economy, raping country that our children won’t see And even Peter Garrett is lying down when we thought that he might be the key Yeah, well, my own eyes... I saw it with my own eyes I did, I did (yeah, I did) That’s why I know this is true (yeah, it's true) I’ve seen it up in Nhulunbuy, bringing alcohol to sacred soil A place still thriving with language and culture by now should just fucken’ be preserved People climbing up on Uluru, behind those fences are the people who know Whoa, and Qantas is still flying to Ayers Rock, despite years and years of truth Yeah, well, my own eyes... I saw it with my own eyes I did, I did (yeah, I did) That’s why I know this is true (yeah, it's true) Whoa, and I’ve seen it in the Kimberley, part of the key to human history See there’s rock art as old as the great ice age, still there for the world to see But demolish it for industry. We’ll create so many jobs you see In a country so wealthy, still burning coal for electricity Yeah, well, my own eyes... I saw it with my own eyes I did, I did (yeah, I did) That’s why I know this is true (yeah, it's true) Same old things we always hear Lies to fill the pockets of the rich No respect for culture, the animals, the environment Our future or just the air we breathe Yeah, our own eyes... We’ve seen this with our own eyes For years we did, for centuries we did That’s why we know this is true Yeah, well, my own eyes... I saw it with my own eyes I did, I did (yeah, I did) That’s why I know this is true (yeah, it's true)
Wow! What a deep song, with powerful and eloquent words of truth snd wisdom. Namaste! If only ...."May all sentient beings and the Earth be in harmony and free from harm."
This is a man who is crying for change. If you are listening to this please understand what a crying soul sounds like for those who don't have faith or hope. This is the sound of a soul

This song is so deeply touching I cant find the right words to describe. It's even more relevant right now then it was 10 years ago.
Just one man.. who speaks the truth that the masses, so blinded.. cannot, and do not want to see..
Only beautiful souls read this
The world need more people like Xavier. Legit and true to himself. Great song, great man, giant heart!
We all come from the same place. We come from by the sea.
We go where the music takes us.
We go to our destiny.
This destiny is not normal.
It’s a place where nothing is as it seems.
It’s the place the music makers go.
It’s where the children dream there dreams.
If not us. Who?
If not now. When?
No matter how things pan out Xavier Rudd was is and was on the Right side of Humanity 👌🙏💪
Omg..this song reduces me to tears. So many people have turned a blind eye to the treatment of our people & this beautiful soul tells our story with such heartfelt lyrics & tone.
Wenn ein Lied in der Lage ist,
tief ins Innere des Menschen
vorzudringen, ihn zu berühren,
so erzählt es von
Liebe, Sehnsucht, Wahrheit.
Danke ❤
this song makes me weep uncontrollably I can't stand all this greed. The power in his words shakes my soul

Love this man
Awesome Man
Thank you for sharing the truths,,
Since I was just a little boy, I’ve been wondering why
This great old culture we should be helping to heal is so often pushed aside
So many children taken away, so much abuse and rape
When will it be high priority to educate and make some real change?
I’ve seen it in communities, so many that it’s hard to believe
Elders speaking wisdom, far beyond what they choose to teach in history
And young hearts just drinking it away, understanding why their culture was so shamed
Waiting for a reason, what was taken off still hasn’t been replaced
My own eyes...
I saw it with my own eyes
I did, I did (yeah, I did)
That’s why I know this is true (yeah, it’s true)
I’ve seen it down in sacred Tassie
Where they’re cutting all those big old trees
Forty-four football fields a day is what they clear and ain’t that hard to believe?
And all for the economy, raping country that our children won’t see
And even Peter Garrett is lying down when we thought that he might be the key
Yeah, well, my own eyes...
I saw it with my own eyes
I did, I did (yeah, I did)
That’s why I know this is true (yeah, it's true)
I’ve seen it up in Nhulunbuy, bringing alcohol to sacred soil
A place still thriving with language and culture by now should just fucken’ be preserved
People climbing up on Uluru, behind those fences are the people who know
Whoa, and Qantas is still flying to Ayers Rock, despite years and years of truth
Yeah, well, my own eyes...
I saw it with my own eyes
I did, I did (yeah, I did)
That’s why I know this is true (yeah, it's true)
Whoa, and I’ve seen it in the Kimberley, part of the key to human history
See there’s rock art as old as the great ice age, still there for the world to see
But demolish it for industry. We’ll create so many jobs you see
In a country so wealthy, still burning coal for electricity
Yeah, well, my own eyes...
I saw it with my own eyes
I did, I did (yeah, I did)
That’s why I know this is true (yeah, it's true)
Same old things we always hear
Lies to fill the pockets of the rich
No respect for culture, the animals, the environment
Our future or just the air we breathe
Yeah, our own eyes...
We’ve seen this with our own eyes
For years we did, for centuries we did
That’s why we know this is true
Yeah, well, my own eyes...
I saw it with my own eyes
I did, I did (yeah, I did)
That’s why I know this is true (yeah, it's true)
Wow! What a deep song, with powerful and eloquent words of truth snd wisdom. Namaste! If only ...."May all sentient beings and the Earth be in harmony and free from harm."
Obrigado Petrúquio🧔. Mandou bem na sugestão 💕
