Hamakua Lyrics by Nahko

My Name is Bear

2017

[Verse 1]
Before Hāmākua
Who the hell were ya?
And do you know by now?
Remember the waiting
For water falling
And concentrating on myself
The quiet ōhi`a
Gave me the fever
To push through cracks and reach for light

[Chorus]
`Oi Kau Kala
E Hana I Ola Honua
Honua, Honua

[Verse 2]
Before 7 Feathers
Gave me his sweater
I'd be the brave and bear the cold
I found myself seeking
A false understanding
Of what is truth and honesty
I kept on stretching out
All of his blessings
And learned to scream above the rain

[Chorus]
`Oi Kau Kala
E Hana I Ola Honua
Honua, Honua

[Verse 3]
Before my beloved
Took me for granted
I would face the lion's den
Through our indecision
I discovered my medicine
People staying, people leaving
For what a better lesson
Than to be open to the messages
Coming through in spurts and mumbles

[Chorus]
`Oi Kau Kala
E Hana I Ola Honua
Honua, Honua
