So sound the battlecry!
|
Against injustice in this time
|
The Spirit of the Lord is upon me, and He has anointed me
|
Yes, the Spirit of the Lord is upon me, and He has appointed me
|
To bring good news to the poor, and bind up the broken hearts
|
Bring freedom for the slaves, and set the captives free!
|
We are the freedom fighters, ooh-yo, ooh-yo, oh-oi
|
We are the freedom fighters, ooh-yeah, ooh-yeah, eh-ehh
|
Listen, some want to live their lives within the sound of a church bell
|
But I want to run a rescue shop within a yard of hell
|
Some want to close their minds to the situation
|
But I want to instigate a true liberation
|
This one ya boom, boom!
|
That is the sound of the drum
|

|
Yes, the word of our God is within me, and He has appointed me
|
To give food to the poor, comfort all those who mourn
|
Bring sight to the blind, and set the captives free!
|
We are the freedom fighters, ooh-yo, ooh-yo, oh-oi
|
We are the freedom fighters, ooh-yeah, ooh-yeah, eh-ehh
|
With God in a my heart
|
Say we can’t take what’s going on
|
It’s time for a revolution
|
The Lord in a my heart
|
Say we can’t take this one
|
It’s time for a revolution
|
But when we try to fight them tell me we wrong
|
And when we shine our light them say «It's too strong!»
