March serves as an anthem to represent the Egyptian people marching through the streets of Cairo during the Revolution, almost taking a military style sound to represent this.
These marches and protests ultimately became the representation of the millions of voices that took to the street in order...
[Barack Obama - Spoken Word]
By stepping down, President Mubarak responded to the Egyptian people's hunger for change, and many questions remain unanswered
But I am confident, that the people of Egypt can find the answers, and do so peacefully and in the spirit of unity that has defined these last few weeks
[Intro]
They marching on the streets just tryna get their piece of freedom, these leaders we don't need 'em gather round we 'bout to march
[Verse 1]
You see the flairs up in the air
See the tents up in the square
They're not leaving 'til they see the Government come & declare
See the people from afar
Waving their flags up to the stars
Hoping revolution brings them steady healing for the scars
See the tears up in their eyes
See the fear within their lives
They've been living steady wishing for a difference to arrive
See the passion in their heart
See the fashion which they march
See 'em marching through the streets just fighting for a fresher start
Hey, don't ever tell me the system is healthy
When citizen's money get sent to the wealthy
You can't even tell me the system will help me
If I need a hand, man just don’t even tempt me
You’ve taken advantage for way too long
I’m tired of singing the same old song
But who else will sing it I, don’t sing it
The voice of the people to stay so strong
[Pre-Hook]
Why the think they messin' with me?
We 'bout to let em know exactly who we destined to be, hey
They don’t hear us, but they 'bout to all see
Just what we doin’, they gon see us marching through all of the streets, hey
Just tell me what you want me to do
(Just tell me what you want, I'll give it when you need it, do you see it?)
I'm tryna see it through
(Right until the end, just gather all the men so we can)
[Hook] x2
Hut, two three four
Hut, two three four
Hut, two three four
Hut, two three four
[Post-Hook Chant]
Left, left, left right left
Left, left, left right left
Left, left, left right left
Left, left, left right left
[Intro]
They marching on the streets just tryna get their piece of freedom, these leaders we don't need 'em gather round we 'bout to march
[Verse 2]
We the generation
We the dynasty
That want some reparation
For the damage you inflicted on the nation
Young Egyptian youth, we finally have the voice
To let the people know it’s time to make it heard and make the choice
Now rejoice, history is being right as we speak
Revolution’s being televised, and we’re no longer weak
Blessed are the meek, inheriting the Earth
Right to the peaks of every mountain
That we’re moving with the vision that we seek, hey
Now tell me do you wanna see a change?
‘Cause we’re not leaving til the change is made
They’re losing lives and for them we all pray
Pray that we can see a change today
[Pre-Hook]
Why the think they messin' with me?
We 'bout to let em know exactly who we destined to be, hey
They don’t hear us, but they 'bout to all see
Just what we doin’, they gon see us marching through all of the streets, hey
Just tell me what you want me to do
(Just tell me what you want, I'll give it when you need it, do you see it?)
I'm tryna see it through
(Right until the end, just gather all the men so we can)
