Drain the Tanks Lyrics

Ua maopopo ia oe ka inoa Hawaii o kela wahi?
Oia no keia puu kokoke i Moanalua?
E i Moanalua, i luna aku
Aohe ou maopopo i ka inoa
Kohu mea o Kapukaki, oia ka inoa pololei
Kaki e...
Kapukaki, aole o Red Hill.
You see the military occupying Hawaiian land
Since 1893 when they invaded our sands
Trying to stay afloat to raise our keiki, sons, and daughters
But in 2021 the navy poison our water ENOUGH
Demilitarize, deoccupy Hawaii
Drain the tanks and clean up all the mess
No longer we suppress, we chanting with our chest
Drain the Red Hill tanks
Said it's time for an Indigenous uprise
We see the fire burning in the childrens' eyes
Without clean water nobody survive
Drain the Red Hill tanks
Abrupt negligence
Department of "Defense"
Furthering pollution of our wai
Consequences are immense
Yeah, we've been here before
We've fought for Kanaloa
Let's follow on their path and we'll use our akua
E Kane e Kaneikawaiola
Nana ka oo kauila kupanaha
E ho mai ka wai na olua o Kanaloa
I ola loa ae i ka wai
OLA KA WAI
Mai ka paa i luna a i lalo
OLA KA WAI
Puai ae ko Waimanalo
OLA KA WAI
E kahea mai e na kiai wai

Drain the Red Hill tanks
Demilitarize, deoccupy Hawaii
Drain the tanks and clean up all the mess
No longer we suppress, we chanting with our chest
Drain the Red Hill tanks
