Can't Take Our Freedom

In the darkest hours, when the world has turn away

And no-one's watching when the sky has turned to grey and

You have no option, when your voice is illegal

Only choice for the people

Is to stand up proudly in the face of death

And it ain't waste of breath when you speak on loudly

On behalf of the kids in the street with no pot to piss in

Living on the young cos' their papas missing

Don't know if his dead or he's locked in prison

Disappeared and considered him the opposition

And now have a vision of dreams i shouldn't see

And could it be this close? nah it couldn't be

But if the people in egypt and tunis can do this

To decide their fate why wouldn't we

More than forty years we done rocked the nation

And the occupation we can not be waiting

We gonn' stop debating, when one of us dies,

Ten jump in line ready to box the satan

You can't take our freedom or take our soul

Take our freedom or take our soul,

You are not the one that's in control

You are not the one that's in control

La ilahe il-allah, no power greater than god

Go ahead and divide your plans, at the end of the day

You are just a man

The movement is building

When the fathers past the scars through to the children

They shooting to kill them

But the question i'm asking is who's gonna heal them

Look up to the clear skies and down to the brown

Where the blood, sweat & the tears dry

We are questioning their lives

And realize that is not a threat when the fair dies

So we are not afraid anymore

And you can't play god with our lives

You attempted to cage every thought

But resistance is locked in our minds

From millbank tower to tahrir square

Nobody can deny its a fact we are there

We are not leaving until we got freedom

We are willing to bleed and even stop breathing

You must have known from the rust on your throne

That you couldn't maintain by cuttin the phones

Justice alone will sustain our presence

Tunisia to libia, bahrain to yemen

I don't taste the blood

I don't taste the sweat

I don't taste the tears

I ain't taste regret

Now i'm a grown man, and never seen my homeland

And because master jack phone plan

Dad escaped jail and he dedicated, his life

To the cause but he never made it

This ain't about my father getting' retribution

Or my uncle is getting tortured with electrocution

Other uncles getting hung in public executions

Just simply coming out with the best solution

And i don't know why it seems this sky regime

Keeps pushing to the silence scream

It will take you half an hour, to figure that this coward

Can only get his powers for violent means

Killing all the doctors in hospitals

When the regime just seems unstoppable

When freedom feels impossible

The people rise and overcome every obstacle

Dictators are nervous, take from the people

Give straight to the serpents

The sick place that this earth is

Will only ever change, if change for a purpose,

By the people, for the people

None are supreme, all are equal

There's mountains to touch, the power is us

Devour these cowards _with the sound as we rush

I am not a leader, a teacher or preacher

If my people aren't free, than i am not either

I refuse to be silenced

And we will not stop short of removing these tyrants

There comes a time where summerize events gone

???

Look up to the sky and wonder why you're next

You could call this the butterfly effect

I despise the rats that disguise the facts

When they know the population is fighting back

Inside of crack, this time i bad, like the second bouazizi

Did light that match
