Australia Rising

There is hope in every nation; for the word is going round
That Australians are sweeping fear away'

They are ardent freedom lovers, who are forged as hammered steel, and thery're gathering supporters
Night and day!

There are honest dinkum judges, who are standing by
The truth; there are coppers who are ready for the fray'

They've got hackers; they've got backers, from Balmain
To Broken Hill; from Warragul up to Broome in WA

There's  Graham Hood; Quantas Pilot, Kristal Mitchell
Victoria police, and Nick Patterson Cranbourne Vic, all
Of them are speaking true today.'

To invoke world liberty, Australia stands alone, knowing
The world needs backup; strewth to say.'

Melbournites faced rubber bullets.' Ordered in by dingo dan
After giving him their trust on election day, he has no heart
Or sense of moderation I must say.!

North Korea,  Rohingia east Timor' Uganda then Ruwanda
Murder by kagame and bagosora what use was the  u n? 
And here.? But never fear !

Its never clear, its always clouded, often muddied as I 
Have studied,  and so often theres that ingredient of fear'

Yet the Aussies never-tire. Like their town in Oxley shire
That has faced, its share of flood and drought and pain
For out here its up' and back to work again!

For you know of our endevours, our blood  the Dardanells
Still treasures; yet even there we were mismanaged
Its now plain.!

So..Let this battle be inspired;  by true aims good hearts
Umpired' not overlooked byp poisened medias proclaim

At Freemantle, they will gather also Tamworth and 
Tallangatta Sydney central and Parramatta.'

In their millions, never minions' thay will strike the worlds
Traditions' for we value so much more than money in this
Land thats always sunny.'

They will makeshift if its needed; that free life be not impeded'
Fathers daughters mothers sisters brothers' each will back
The other day by day'

Forgetting fleeting comforts; they'll hold their ground and
Sound the trumpet' for we'll not fall; while willing hearts keep
Resolve, and hold fear at bay.!

In this land 'of ever onward' that has so much to inspire us
The air can be free here and cleaner; without the filthy
Lies of skit'ers.'

True living' almost Holy the great goal that we all treasure!
As above our human stature; there is the mighty pressure
Building' of a Nation states decision.'

A pure surge from reaching inward' and unto a completion
With minds akin in reason, and in aim' I see now new emerging
Freedoms, will be modelled on its frame and living flame!
