about

"Eternity" speaks to the lineage of strong, fierce Aboriginal & Pacific Islander women

Mi-kaisha was raised by. This soul-stirring anthem celebrates culture and the unbreakable bonds of community. In the wake of a critical moment in Australian political history, Mi-kaisha hopes that "Eternity" resonates as a reminder of the strength and resilience of First Nations peoples.

lyrics

Not a drop in the ocean
I’m the river that flows like a great stampede
I’m history unfolding
I’m a moment in time that will not repeat

Can’t you hear it, hear it
My soul inside the sound
I’m taking higher ground

I sing for better days
I sing for my people
And my people breathe through me
I sing to make a way
I sing for my freedom
And freedom is all I need
Remember my name always
I’m the daughter of the wave
I’m brave, I’m not afraid
I’m here for a reason
Eternity points to me

Seven days of creation
But ten thousand years just to get to me
I am the foundation
Of all that has been and all that will be

I sing for better days
I sing for my people
And my people breathe through me
I sing to make a way
I sing for my freedom
And freedom is all I need
Remember my name always
I’m the daughter of the wave
I’m brave, I’m not afraid
I’m here for a reason
Eternity points to me

Can’t you hear it, hear it
My soul inside the sound
I’m taking higher ground

I sing for better days
I sing for my people
And my people breathe through me
I sing to make a way
I sing for my freedom
And freedom is all I need
Remember my name always
I’m the daughter of the wave
I’m brave, I’m not afraid
I’m here for a reason
Eternity points to me
