They Beat Us Away From Our Right

they beat us away from our right We fight yes we fight We try yes we try What else should we do Right in front of our eyes They beat us away from Our right They beat us away from our right Yeah is all clear yeah so clear Right in front of our view Our legs shakes Not cos we are not brave Not cos we are wrong Just we need our right So they throw their bats on us They spray us away with chemicals Right in front of our view Our legs shakes Right on our stand for freedom They beat us away from our right So now We fight yes we fight We try yes we try What else should we do Right in front of our eyes They beat us away from our right They beat us away from our right They say we are not disciplined They say we are not satisfied So what right do we have So long they don't care About our life's is not their worries Our vote they need only The rest is history Is been this way for a very long time Oh now the people are so confuse This life so beautiful is right in Front of our view turn ugly Poverty on the lands everywhere On deferent levels and styles Boils of anger on the faces Of the innocent hungry people Now every where you see Those protest Those fight for freedom Those hunger strakes Those chants of justice Yet right in front of our view Our feet shakes At those road blocks They beat us so hard So they throw bats on us They spray us away with chemicals Right in front of our view They beat us away from our right So now We fight yes we fight We try yes we try What else should we do Right in front of our view They beat us away from Our right They beat us away from out right I thought freedom was free Now is a fight I thought freedom was free Now we still trying to achieve one I thought freedom was free Now is a war No I thought freedom is free Now is on the hands of few Oh no I thought freedom was free But at the road blocks we fight We try we protest And I thought freedom was free Not until they throw their bats on us Not until they spray us with this chemicals And now We fight yes we fight We try yes we try What else can we do Right in front of our view They beat us away from Our right
