	The song Johnny Kick a Hole in the Sky from Mother's Milk is about the plight and affliction of the Native American Indians and this particular song made the public see Kiedis (erroneously) as part-Native.

	It's basically Anthony's feelings about how him and his people have been treated in America. He's saying someone should stand up to the government and protest and do something about the harsh treatments of the past/present. He also states that most of history is full of shit about Native Americans and he wishes no one would believe them. He also wishes that America wasn't seen on a pedestol (sp?) and of high glory, but rather for the truth.

	yes anthony has some native american in him, can't you tell, just look at some pics of him from the early days, and it's kind of self explanitory, i mean look at all his "body beautification" tatoos, that represent his love for the native american culture. And duh he even says "Apache blood is in my heart, thrashin through me like a shark..." he's also mohican and lithuanian.
