Sing Our Own Song Lyrics
The great flood of tears that we've cried
For our brothers and sisters who've died
Over four hundred years has washed away our fears
And strengthened our pride, now we turn back the tide
We will no longer hear your command
We will seize the control from your hand
We will fan the flame of our anger and pain
And you'll feel the shame for what you do in God's name
[Chorus]:
We will fight for the right to be free
And we will build our own society
And we will sing, we will sing
We will sing our own song
When the ancient drum rhythms ring
The voice of our forefathers sings
Forward Africa run our day of freedom has come
For me and for you Amandla Awethu
[Chorus]
We will fight for the right to be free
And we will build our own society
And we will sing, we will sing
We will sing our own song
We will fight for the right to be free
And we will build our own society
And we will sing, we will sing
We will sing our own song
And We will fight for the right to be free
And we will build our own society
And we will sing, we will sing
We will sing our own song
We will fight for the right to be free
And we will build our own society
And we will sing, we will sing
We will sing our own song
And We will fight for the right to be free
And we will build our own society
And we will sing, we will sing
We will sing our own song
And We will fight for the right to be free
