For Freedom Songtext

Feelings growing Getting stronger But even now My hands are tied Feel restricted I ca'tn 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 So gather round You people to me And listen now to what I say Sticks and stones will get us no-where Nineteen 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've got to realise that Violence is not the answer Here we stand at the edge of time Once step more into decline So stand back now And count our losses Stand back now And count our gains We are one not matter what they say We must look to the future for all our sakes We've got to stand now And push on through to the other side We've got to realise that Violence is not the answer Oh, 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 For their lives have 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've got to realise that Violence is not the answer FOR FREEDOM FOR FREEDOM FOR FREEDOM
