Lyrics:

[Intro]
Yeah, this track is dedicated
To the Indigenous people of Australia
And the soldiers and the firefighters who protect it
Yeah, yeah

[Verse 1]
The strong stood silent, much harder men wept
Pollies broadcast live from the parliament steps
City slickers watched on, bush cousins held breath
Hell on their doorstep and only half of them left
I fell asleep that night and dreamt the arsonist bled
And woke up to cries of 'Off with their head' soon drowned
By the sight of the nation standing proud, lockstep
Made me feel there's some issues to address like
Those who don't agree with my freedom or choices
Should at least respect here they got the freedom to voice it
Media hype, sensationalised poison
Divide by our difference, not build common points
But all from Bagdad to Britain
Ain't feelin' our lifestyle of livin', pack your bags, good riddance
Can't question our morals, can't query our spirit
'Cause we know the fire come heroes come with it, like

[Chorus]
And this is my country, flaws and all
Still what our boys overseas at war for
So I'm not hearin' we ain't doin' it right
'Cause it's easy to criticise, it's easy to divide
But this is our country, young and free
We the sum of all nations, some of all creeds
Yeah, we [?], knowin' when it's crunch time
We the sum of our people combined, come together, right

[Verse 2]
Yeah, we rise to the problems
We're Australian, the size of our hearts stretch the size of our wallets
From guys on the front lines to guys in the office
To the firefighters tryna stop it, we ain't perfect
There's flaws, but in times of crisis we drop it
Count the losses, look to the Southern Cross
And pray to whatever God we believe in to offer
Respite to those left worse off from it
Uh, so each Anzac and Australia Day
We celebrate black, white, doesn't your race
Whether it's dawn services or barby's with your mates
I wonder if diggers knew the pride in country they'd create
State to state, coast to coast
There's hand on heart recitin' the oath, it's a hand off
To lighten load, it's that fair go attitude
That says more than anything presidents spoke

[Chorus]
And this is my country, flaws and all
Still what our boys overseas at war for
So I'm not hearin' we ain't doin' it right
'Cause it's easy to criticise, it's easy to divide
But this is our country, young and free
We the sum of all nations, some of all creeds
Yeah, we [?], knowin' when it's crunch time
We the sum of our people combined, come together, right

[Verse 3]
Yeah
I love hearin' Europeans talk like we lie beneath 'em
'Cause our culture ain't built on galleries and museums
But put us in arenas, or a put us on a beach
Or talk freedoms, ain't no motherfucker gon' beat us now
I'm nothin' special, I just rhyme kinda decent, kids
Look to Anzacs for what a leader is
The lucky country, home of the brave
Bastards who stand up, fight, and punch out their weight class
This an ode to my home, one love for those
Who strength they can't replicate in a photo
For souls in Gallipoli, one love from home
And one love for those who shot back on Kokoda
I'm over the anti-Oz vibes, let 'em slide
I'm ashamed as the next man by the race riots
But I bleed Aussie, so till the planets collide
I'll be a proud motherfucker with my flag raised high

[Chorus]
And this is my country, flaws and all
Still what our boys overseas at war for
So I'm not hearin' we ain't doin' it right
'Cause it's easy to criticise, it's easy to divide
But this is our country, young and free
We the sum of all nations, some of all creeds
Yeah, we [?], knowin' when it's crunch time
We the sum of our people combined, come together, right

[Outro]
Yeah
Now I'm not sayin' we're perfect, we're far from it
Sometimes the bullshit gets in the way of
Us seein' how we've actually got it
They wouldn't call it the lucky country
If it wasn't, man
Yo
