The Time Is Now
The chains are heavy, the silence deep,
A slumbering world, where shadows creep.
We watch injustice, with eyes downcast,
Our spirits broken, our futures lost.
How long will we endure this pain?
How long will we wear this chain?
The time has come, to rise and stand,
To reclaim our lives, to take command.
Our voices silenced, our rights denied,
Our dreams shattered, our hopes defied.
But in our hearts, a fire burns bright,
A yearning for freedom, a burning light.
No more excuses, no more fear,
The moment's here, the time is near.
Let courage rise, let anger swell,
Break free from chains, and break the spell.
Unite, my brothers, unite, my sisters,
Against the tyrants, against the twisters.
Demand your rights, with voices strong,
Fight for freedom, where you belong.
Let justice reign, let truth prevail,
Let freedom's banner, proudly sail.
The time for action, is now at hand,
Rise up, and take back your land.
* Sehrab Sathoo
