Can't Take Our Freedom, Lyrics

Lyrics
In the darkest hour,
when the world has turned awayyyy.
And no-ones watchiiin.
when the sky has turned to grey.
And you have no optiiiiions
...when your voice is illegal,
only choice for the people.
Is to stand up proudlyyyy,
and to face the death,
it aint a waste of breathe.
When you speak up loudlyyyy,
on behalf of the kids
and the street where no pot to piss in.
Living on the young cause their papa's missin,
dont know if hes dead or he's locked in prison.
Disappeared they considered him the opposition.
And now i have the visions of the dreams i shouldnt see.
N could we be this close? naw couldnt be.
But if the people of egypt and tunis could do this
decide their fate, then y wouldnt we?
Running for the years given protination
under occupation
we cannot be waiting
we gon stop debatin
when one of us dies,
ten jump in line ready to box for satan
You cant take our freedom and take our soul,
take our freedom and take our soul.
You are not the one thats in control,
you are not the one thats in control.
La ilaha illa allah,
...no power's greater than gods.
Go ahead and divide ur plans,
in the end of the day u were just a man.
The movements building.
When the fathers pass the scars through to the children,
they're shooting to kill them.
But the question im asking is
whos gunna heal them
...the cops or the clear sky's been down to the ground with the blood,
sweat and the tears dried.
We are questioning
their lies reallize that theres not a threat when the fear dies.
So we are not afraid anymore.
N u cant play god with our lives,
u attempted to cage every thought
but persistence is locked in our minds
from norback down wit ta ta7lia square
nobody can denie the fact we were there
but we are not leavin
until we have got freedom
we are willing to bleed
and even stop breathing
u must've known
from the rust on ur thrown
that u couldnt maintain by cuttin the phones
justice alone
will sustain our prisons
tunisia to libya
bahrain to yemen
I dont taste the blood
I dont taste the sweat
I dont taste the tears
I aint taste regret.
I dont taste the blood
...I dont taste the sweat
I dont taste the tears
I aint taste regret.
Now,
Now im a grown man
N i never seen ma homeland.
N because in the magicjack phone plan.
Dad escaped jail and he dedicated
his life to the cause but he never made it.
this aint about ma father gettin retrecution.
or ma uncles getting tortured with electricution
other uncles gettin hung in public executions.
juss simply comin up with the best solution.
n i dont know why it seems
this guys regime
keeps pushin through the silent screen.
wont take you half an hour
to figure that this coward
can only get his power
through violient meens.
Killin all the doctors in the hospital,
When the regime jus seems so unstoppable.
When freedom feels like its impossible
do people rise and overcome every obstacle
Dictators are nervous
take from the people give straight to the serpants
the sick place that this earth is,
will only have a change if change for a purpose
by the people for the people
...non are supreme
all are equal
this mount is to touch
the power resustce
devour these cowards
is not wut they rush
i am not a leader or teacher or preacher
but if ma people arent free then i am not either
refuse to be silent
and we will not stop short of removing these tyrants
then there comes a time to summarise events called
some of the life often required as tensloft
Up to the sky u wonder y ur next
u could call this the butterfly effect
i despise the raps that disguise the fact
when u know the population is fighting back
this sign of crack
this time its bad
let the second boy azizy delight the match
