red is our blood and black is the shadow that falls over this land
they want to rule us all
brutality and murder is their way
we won't live on our knees
we fight for a better day
brothers and sisters come and rally to the cause - fighting oppression
we're fighting against their laws
the road to freedom
there's obstacles in our way
but we shall overcome them triumphantly
and tomorrow holds our hope
justice and equality
there's somethings worth fighting for
fighting for a better day
and tomorrow holds our hope
justice and equality
there's somethings worth fighting for
can't you see?
it's what we're fighting for...
