[00:21.26]I wanna talk about a sound, a voice, a freedom, rejoice.
[00:24.39]I can't stay silent while you take away our choice.
[00:26.88]The guns, the armour, the gossip, the drama.
[00:29.25]The innocent, guilty, we're all free of karma.
[00:31.44]The nation, the rules, the patient, the fools,
[00:34.00]The picket lines inside, to close down schools,
[00:36.30]A chance we take, the path we tread,
[00:38.67]You can't cry 'freedom', when you're standing on the dead,
[00:41.35]Nobody put this in me, I only wanna get free,
[00:43.73]Battered out of hatred, jealousy, envy,
[00:45.04]Liars, the fakes, the funerals, the wakes,
[00:47.11]
[00:48.53]The life we live, you give, it takes,
[00:50.90]The stones we cast, the future, the past,
[00:53.32]The laws we break, too slow, too fast,
[00:55.32]The highs, the lows, we fell, we rose,
[00:57.76]Wi' happiness or woes, we come and we go...
[01:01.26]GO!
[01:03.00]I sing revolution while you're trying to silence me,
[01:06.74]
[01:07.56]My resolution for a life I can lead,
[01:11.36]
[01:13.11]Adversity has become part of my destiny
[01:17.12]I'd rather die on my feet, than ever live on my knees.
[01:23.05]
[01:25.61]And all I'm hearing is the news,
[01:27.54]The shots, the bombs, the plots,
[01:29.23]We separate and divide, the streets, the blocks,
[01:31.04]The free, the brave, the dead, the grave,
[01:33.34]Everyday combat, the ones you couldn't save,
[01:35.83]The scars, the cracks, the science, the facts,
[01:38.34]Religion, control, the knife in our backs,
[01:40.52]The found, the lost, we pay, the cost,
[01:42.76]Genocide inside, we're taken by the cross,
[01:45.38]Somebody put this in me, I only wanted to see,
[01:47.88]An end to all this hatred, jealously, envy,
[01:50.00]The fires, the scrapes, the records, the tapes,
[01:52.49]The weak, the strong, the love, the hate,
[01:55.12]The sails, the masts, no future, no past,
[01:57.05]Abuse we take, too slow, too fast,
[01:59.55]The highs, the lows, we fell, we rose,
[02:01.68]Wi' happiness or woes, we come and we go...
[02:05.67]
[02:06.30]GO!
[02:06.86]I sing revolution while you're trying to silence me,
[02:11.97]My resolution for a life I can lead,
[02:16.10]
[02:16.79]Adversity has become part of my destiny
[02:21.36]I'd rather die on my feet, than ever live on my
[02:25.30]I sing revolution singing 'Oh, are you hearing me?'
[02:31.34]My own solution for a new enemy,
[02:33.66]I close your arms, fall on you, lost in this misery,
[02:39.41]I'd rather die on my feet, than ever live on my
[02:43.84]I'd rather die on my feet, than ever live on my
[02:48.13]I'd rather die on my feet, than ever live on my knees.
[02:57.24]
[03:05.93]All pray! judge and leaders
[03:08.06]You made us, none believers,
[03:10.36]These graves that you leave us,
[03:12.92]Replace your promised freedom.
[03:15.05]All pray! judge and leaders
[03:17.48]You made us none believers,
[03:19.85]These graves that you leave us,
[03:22.44]Replace your promised freedom
[03:24.88]All pray!
