Revolution
The people started marching
they came from everywhere
Armed with words of freedom
revolution in the air
They joined in every corner
across their precious land
They all agreed the time had come
they had to take a stand
The country was divided
and teetered on the edge
Of losing its democracy
betraying its own pledge
It used to be a beacon
an oasis in the sand
Desired by so many
its shores a freedom land
But tyranny had taken hold
at stake, democracy
People knew intangibles
never came for free
And so from many, there was one
it was the day and hour
They came to show the watching world
the people have the power
