Dignity and Backbone |
| There is no cavalry coming over Vinegar Hill |
| These boots I stand in |
| Are the only boots I must fill |
| We have seen the way of greed |
| And yes I ve done my share |
| Can we pull together now? |
| Or are we going nowhere? |
| Being a sovereign people |
| Is not determined by finance |
| But how we are with each other |
| How we work and we play |
| How we sing and we dance |
| With dignity and backbone |
| Dignity and backbone |
| This world is achingly beautiful |
| That my spirit is free |
| It s not about where I come from |
| As much as where I want to go |
| I want to be the future |
| Where I m planted I will grow |
| Being a sovereign people |
| I m not waiting for a leader |
| I ll try to be one myself |
| Live a good strong life |
| Every day that is left |
| Keep an eye on my neighbour |
| Always open my hand |
| Reach out to each other |
| Imagine a new land |
| Being a sovereign people |
