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
