| Take this song of freedom
|
| Put it on & arm yourself for the fight
|
| Don’t let them blind your eyes now
|
| Or listen to the devil liar
|
| Feelings growing getting stronger
|
| But even now my hands are tied
|
| I feel restricted i can’t cut loose this ball and chain that’s round my neck
|
| What can i say that’s not been said before
|
| Until there’s a better way i’m gonna stay this way
|
| Come gather round you people to me
|
| And listen now to what i say
|
| Sticks and stones will get us nowhere
|
| There’s twenty years yet we still don’t know
|
| What have we learnt is this all we can show
|
| There must be a better way to end the day
|
| We’ve got to stand now and push on through to the other side
|
| We must not blind our eyes
|
| Or listen to the devil liar
|
| Now we’re the nation of many colours
|
| But everybody’s blood runs red
|
| Cut our wrists and bind together
|
| Too much blood has been spilt in hate
|
| Do it now for your children 'cause their lives are yet to come
|
| Do it now for you own sakes for freedom
|
| We’ve got to stand now and push on through to the other side
|
| We must not blind our eyes
|
| Or listen to the devil liar
|
| Do it now for your children 'cause their lives are yet to come
|
| Do it now for you own sakes for freedom
|
| For freedom
|
| We’ve got to stand now and push on through to the other side
|
| We must not blind our eyes
|
| Or listen to the devi lliar |
