about

Jandamarra is an exceptionally talented Aboriginal portrait artist from the Sunshine Coast who connects people through his paintings. This is his story.

lyrics

Thirteen and on the streets my friend
Running with an older crew
No-one taking care of you
You breathe it in you can pretend
Everything just falls away
Running from the light of day

Could have ended differently
If all the demons in your head
Had left you to the night instead
Could have ended differently
But you were born for artistry
There's colours only you can see

Four year detention took its toll
Breaking out was easier
Going back was harder than hard
When they caught your body they caught your soul
Put you in a tiny cell
Took away the rope as well

And there you stood at last
Fast turned to the past
Just waiting for the fight
But with a brush in hand
You became a different man
You stepped into the light

Could have ended differently...

Now you sit before us on that stage
ever humble story man
Tell it how it all began
You wrote the book you are the page
Wisdom flowing through your hands
Colour from your tribal lands

Could have ended differently...

Jandamarra you're home
