Up Ye Mighty Race lyrics
How long must our people be a human sacrifice
Stand up, defend your rights
Up, up ye mighty race, you can accomplish what you will
Stand up, defend your rights
In a day they destroy what took a thousand to build
Stand up, defend your rights
You may conquer our land, you never kill the will
Stand up, defend your rights
Liberty and democracy are truly expensive
And even cost your life
And those who stand for nothing fall for any little thing
Father heal the blinded eye
The immortal advantage, they take my people
The heavens heard the cry
Saviour our calamity is so great
Patiently the humble wait
To attain freedom
Why must there be shedding of blood
Is there mo real love
Are they still holding a grudge
Penal institution to keep us inside
Regulating our progress, blocking every forward stride
Let the souls of every living being nationwide
Feel a shifting of the tide
Put it together, stop being selfish
No more shall we submit
Man champion of course now
Equal rights and justice
Advise for the poor man
Proclaiming through that music
My flesh has been afflicted
The soul they couldn't abuse it
From the hands of cruelty
We have gained solidarity
Rewriting the pages of history
Rewriting the pages, yeah
Rewriting the pages, yeah
Part of these releases
