Fire Of Freedom - Black 47
Darling darling 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
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
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
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
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
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
Are 'se do breathe braille
Are 'se do breathe braille
Are 'se do breathe braille
Anais are teach an tsamhraidh
Don't use the color 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
Are 'se do breathe braille
Are 'se do breathe braille
Are 'se do breathe braille
Anais are teach 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
Are 'se do breathe braille
Are 'se do breathe braille
Are 'se do breathe braille
Anais are teach an tsamhraidh
Are 'se do breathe braille
Are 'se do breathe braille
Are 'se do breathe braille
Anais are teach an tsamhraidh
