Twenty Seven Million |
See what the world’s done? |
came to london |
She’s a nothing, a no one, she’s undone |
Broken dreams, stolen freedom |
Trapped in the night, trafficked and beaten |
All a part of an evil economy |
Nothing more than someone’s commodity |
A precious being like you and me A daughter, a sister, a somebody! |
She was drawn by the bright lights |
She was tied up in their lights |
She worked right through the daylight |
No voice, she’s a slave to the night |
27 million like me |
(That's 27 million on this cruel journey) |
We’ve got to rise up, open our eyes up Be her voice, be her freedom, come on stand up! |
We’ve got to rise up, open our eyes up Be her voice, be her freedom, come on stand up! |
We’ve got to rise up, open our eyes up Be her voice, be her freedom, come on stand up! |
We’ve got to rise up, open our eyes up Be her voice, be her freedom, come on stand up! |
After the man left, she’s nothing left |
No one, no love, no one to call her friend |
She’s stuck in the pit of hell |
She’s almost sick from the smell |
She’s numb, she’s dead from the inside out |
Her heart is screaming but you don’t hear the shout |
Who’s the voice? |
who’s gonna break the door down? |
Who wakes her up from the nightmare now? |
She was drawn by the bright lights |
She was tied up in their lights |
She worked right through the daylight |
No voice, she’s a slave to the night |
27 million like me |
(27 million need heaven’s mercy!) |
We’ve got to rise up, open our eyes up Be her voice, be her freedom, come on stand up! |
We’ve got to rise up, open our eyes up Be her voice, be her freedom, come on stand up! |
We’ve got to rise up, open our eyes up Be her voice, be her freedom, come on stand up! |
We’ve got to rise up, open our eyes up Be her voice, be her freedom, come on stand up! |
27 million, are you joking? |
How did we let evil get so tight a grip |
Watching while the world falls apart? |
How did we let this stuff begin? |
We’re not bothered if this offends |
Cause you got people that can depend |
But they ain’t got that, they got nothing |
Sometimes you gotta stand for something |
Let this be the stand against your blood running |
Little girl don’t cry |
Let me dry your eyes in the darkest night |
(You're not alone) |
Hold on through the storm |
You’re not on your own |
Hold on, love will come |
We’ve got to rise up, open our eyes up Be her voice, be her freedom, come on stand up! |
