Words, these words of freedom;
|
A bequest, never to be silenced.
|
A bequest, never to be silenced... silenced...
|
|
In this world of lies, the truth - it means resistance;
|
To make the masses see and sense their needs.
|
|
He healed so many aching hearts, and wounds.
|
And threw back the baseness - back to where it came from.
|
|
Aspired from the middle, of his brothers;
|
Charged this suffering and oppression.
|
One single voice became a storm.
|
His words and melodies - the weapon they fear, the weapon they fear...
|
|
Threw back the baseness - back from where it came.
|
Threw back the baseness - back from where it came... from where it came.
|
Threw back the baseness - back from where it came.
|
Threw back the baseness - back from where it came.
|
Threw back the baseness - back from where it came.
|
Threw back the baseness - back from where it came.
|
|
A bequest, never to be silenced...
|
|
Nobody's chosen to suffer.
|
Nobody's destined to rule.
|
Gagged his mouth but not his songs, the songs we sing.
|
Fettered his hands,
|
But not, not these words he wrote:
|
These songs we'll sing!
|
These songs we'll sing!
|
Threw back the baseness - back from where it came.
|
Threw back the baseness - back from where it came...
