专辑 | Fire of Freedom |
darlin, darlin' you've put up with so much | |
betrayed by your leaders, abandoned by your church | |
i've watched you suffer, now you're older than your years | |
but you still look beautiful, though you're fightin' back the tears | |
you can break down my door, you can even strip search me | |
never gonna take away my human dignity | |
beat me, shoot me, flame keep on burnin' | |
never gonna put out the fire of freedom | |
when we were children, we thought we would be | |
god's anointed but the joke was on you and me | |
10 years later, we're still searchin' for the sun | |
but i want you to know that our day will come | |
so many hopes and dreams lying in pieces | |
all of us betrayed by politicians' speeches | |
i want you to know, i'll love you forever | |
our dreams will continue in the eyes of our children | |
out in the streets all i hear is violence | |
but the authorities react with silence | |
one law for you, for me it's another | |
things gotta change, oh my sisters and brothers | |
óró 'se do bheatha 'bhaile | |
anois ar theacht an tsamhraidh | |
don't use the colour of my skin as an issue | |
hey politician, your lies are gonna get you | |
chickens comin' home to roost in the white house | |
blood on the streets if you don't shut your big mouth | |
óró 'se do bheatha 'bhaile | |
anois ar theacht an tsamhraidh | |
power to the people sang johnny lennon | |
20 years later we're back at the beginnin' | |
sick of waitin' round for divine intervention | |
take to the streets if you're lookin' for redemption | |
óró 'se do bheatha 'bhaile | |
anois ar theacht an tsamhraidh |
