|
A desperate situation |
|
Forced to retaliation |
|
The task ahead a burden |
|
Men will suffer, that's for certain |
|
We'll charge into the fire |
|
The cause, we must inspire |
|
We raise our fists to tyranny |
|
A high price, freedom is not free |
|
The odds are stacked against us |
|
But with our resolve relentless |
|
And arrogance their weakness |
|
Our cause is just, we won't be beaten |
|
Upon this declaration |
|
Will come a brand new nation |
|
Where men are seen as equal |
|
Governed by and for the people |
|
So we make our stand and pray |
|
On this Declaration Day |
|
For independence I will fight |
|
With liberty I will defy |
|
So we make our stand and pray |
|
On this Declaration Day |
|
Give me liberty or give me death |
|
I'll fight 'til my last breath |
|
With virtue as our beacon |
|
Our cause is charged as treason |
|
Battle worn and starving |
|
Through the hell of war we'll keep marching |
|
The birth of our new nation |
|
An act of desperation |
|
We'll force King George down to his knees |
|
Capitulation |
|
And so we make our stand and pray |
|
On this Declaration Day |
|
For independence I will fight |
|
With liberty I will defy |
|
So we make our stand and pray |
|
On this Declaration Day |
|
Give me liberty or give me death |
|
I'll fight 'til my last breath |
