Drives inside us fighting with the dead past we've given it all away we've got something that reaches through distress holds us together a will for a better way we've got something that stands for equality the organized process which remains to make a change to break down to get up to learn this to teach this to lift to give back to fight for to die with life burning cleansing a nation a nation is gone a promise given as part of a plan no more silence resist we must rise no more silence resist we must rise we will scar as one we will sand as one fighting with the dead past we've given it all away we've got something that stands for equality to get up to learn to teach this to lift up life to give back to fight for to die with life stand as one scar as one stand as one scar as one.
