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.
