Lyrics of Sing Our Own Song by UB40
verse
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
verse
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
verse
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
chorus
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
verse
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
chorus
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
chorus
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
outro
And we will fight for the right to be free
And we will build our own society
