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.
