We’ve been down this road before
Shown worse devils to the door
Throw off our chains of slavery
Now is the time to set ourselves free
And reclaim our liberty
We’ve come too far to give up now
We’ve fought too hard to abandon our ground
Though the battle may be long
And the oppressors are strong
In time, the battle will be won
Tyrants have come, tyrants have gone
Ever since the days of Babylon
The chance of winning may seem low
But there is something I know
Something that gives me hope…
We’ve come too far to give up now
We’ve fought too hard to abandon our ground
Though the battle may be long
And the oppressors are strong
In time, the battle will be won
They bought the politicians and the news
They’ve got all the weapons (which they like to use)
But they are few and we’re billions strong
We are the giant … been sleeping for too long
Time to wake up and sing our victory song
We’ve come too far to give up now
We’ve fought too hard to abandon our ground
Though the battle may be long
And the oppressors are strong
In time, the battle will be won
