Lyrics
Right To Respect
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
No one owns the waters
No one owns the earth
No one owns the mountains
The flowers and the dirt
No one owns a race
Colours can not hurt
But we own the right to respect
One and all
No one owns the words
Spoken by someone
Whos fightingfor his right
Just to be treated like someone
No one owns the hope
That burns in everyone
But we own the right to respect
One and all
And when we say weve had enough
Weve really had enough
And when we say we dont want no more
We really dont want no more
No one owns a woman
No one owns a man
No one owns a country
The people and their land
No one owns a lofe
Yet I see blood upon your hands
But we own the right to respect
One and all
