about

This track is about my home town of Kaitaia, more specifically, Te Kao. With all the horrible headlines coming out of Kaitaia at the moment, I think this song is exactly what our town needs to get everyone back on their feet, lift peoples spirits and bring the loving atmosphere back to our small town.

lyrics

KTA

(Verse 1)
White sand, green land, living by the sea, man
A game cause I never need a B plan
Been saying need to get out of this place
But when I leave then I grieve cause I miss my mommas face
And I know, Far North be the typical sound
But I’ve never not been super lyrical now
For a minute let me finish, I’ll be winning when I get it
Prove to everyone that spit it that this snot nose goodie good
Maori boy coming from the KTA
Tried to make himself a name, coming all this way
Through the struggles and the strengths
In the future and the past tense, I’ll love my Home till my last breath

(Chorus)
The sun shines brighter, the sky’s always blue
I’ll never lose that feeling when I come home to you
And I’ll stay higher and always be true
I’ll never lose that feeling when I come home to you

(Verse 2)
4 wheels rollin down Donald’s, leaving almost 24 empty green bottles
Wake and bake, piece of cake, take the bait, epic skate
Couple hours late back to 8 for to medicate
All I know’s the weathers always better full of happiness and love
No stressing, count my blessings cause they never be enough
To the Bluff for a feed, see how many we can bring
And we’re always looking forward to when Niki Boy rings, but for real
That fam be that blood though, no matter how hard you try you never can let that blood go
So let the soul flow through you, there’s only one place for you to go to

(Chorus)
The sun shines brighter, the sky’s always blue
I’ll never lose that feeling when I come home to you
And I’ll stay higher and always be true
I’ll never lose that feeling when I come home to you

(Bridge)
Forever have a place in my heart, Number 1
Fall back on
And the memories will last when the family is gone
Still hold on
Cause I don’t care for money or things when I’m with you
So let me be with you, I wanna go home

(Chorus)
The sun shines brighter, the sky’s always blue
I’ll never lose that feeling when I come home to you
And I’ll stay higher and always be true
I’ll never lose that feeling when I come home to you
