Additional Lyrics for this version by Groovescooter: I’m the 14 year old outback boy / Whose life ends in a jail / No cops are ever charged / In a system made to fail / I’m the man who pleads he can’t breathe / With my neck pinned to the ground / But we still march in our thousands / As we - dodge another bullet round / I am a one in ten...

#BlackLivesMatter... 100% of sales to the ABORIGINAL LEGAL SERVICE

I’m the 14 year old outback boy /
Whose life ends in a jail /
No cops are ever charged /
In a system made to fail /
I’m the man who pleads he can’t breathe /
With my neck pinned to the ground /
But we still march in our thousands /
As we - dodge another bullet round /

This PAY WHAT YOU LIKE / DONATION release was produced on the fly by those at Groovescooter with HUGE thanks to all those local artists (and Grammo Suspect from Kenya) who came on board so quickly and either recorded vocals, remixed tracks or provided their production/recording/mastering services so quickly (often either for free or very cheaply) to make this EP happen. Extra special thanks to Grant Mercer, Vincent Sebastian, Owen Penglis, Peta Morris, Roger Mills & Nico.
