Lahaina Lives On

I keep snoozing my alarm clock Can't seem to shake this off My mind wants to wake up But my heads tired as rock now It's hard sometimes to make it through Just to keep a smile on my face So much devastation That's been burning up my homeland, yeah They took our water to grow their crops Left us dried up to pay the cost When the storm came and power down Spark the west side, Lahaina town Will live on, will live on Maui stay strong, Maui stay strong I remember when i was a baby Chillen with my mom on the sand The clear blue water, sunniest days Aunty Bonz was the surf class In high school we used have all our fun Dressing up for junior prom Can't forget bout that year we run front street Halloween was pure maadness So much memories you can't erase So much history you can't replace Love goes out, i keep my prayers long We stick together Lahaina town Will live on, will live on Maui stay strong, Maui stay strong The first capital of the Hawaiian kingdom Kings and queens they're resting safe and sound Fought off the whalers for fishing ground Westside stand up proud We faced growth rapidly And commercialization still actively Pushing our people to the brink of poverty And you wonder why we ball out sovereignty When the people suffer and no body else is around Red cross, no fema, no government come and clean up Over and over again, we showing all the world our love Love one another, cause kanaka maoli is the true survivor Live on, we'll live on Maui stay strong, Maui stay strong
