The Chief
Wildcat! Wildcat! Lyrics

Take a break, from your old time
Step back from the familiar and routine

Looking great, from the old time baby
Feeling good about how things used to be

Promises, with the old crown
Expectations and obligations that come with tradition and authority

Will make you pay, with the old time baby
Consequences and expectations for not complying with tradition and authority

Get up, stand up, get up, stand up, whoa
Encouragement to take action and assert oneself

All the things, from the old
All the traditions and habits of the past

Broken our ways, in the old time baby
Breaking away from these traditions and habits in the past

We took your chief to the
The community is making a change in leadership or direction

Kiss your sister and brother
Show affection to family members

Hug your mother and father
Show love to parents

Take a breath from your lover
Pause and appreciate one's romantic partner

Will say, will wait and take the
Listen and be patient for what will come

The son you ever honor, oh, oh
Honoring tradition and lineage

It say he was a mother
Reference to a respected and powerful leader in the past

But take you like the other. Oho
Presenting a new leader who is not necessarily similar to the past one

The son you never honor
Calling for recognition and respect of new and different leadership

Get up, stand up, get up, stand up, whoa
Encouragement to keep pushing forward and taking action

Get up, stand up, get up, stand up, go
Call to action to pursue change and progress
