If you are turning on the TV screen
And all you see is death, deep and mean
You often hide away from what you see
Are you afraid or just a wannabe?

What are we waiting for
Before we lose control

We are one - we are free
And we need a place to be
We are one - we will rise
Gonna be no compromise
We are one - we are free
And we need a place to be
We are one - we will rise
Never be a compromise

Do you enjoy watching people die
Tears and blood that blinds our eye
Stand up and fight try to change our plight
If you don't care we can't win the fight

What are we waiting for
Before we lose control

We are one - we are free
And we need a place to be
We are one - we will rise
Gonna be no compromise
We are one - we are free
And we need a place to be
We are one - we will rise
Never be a compromise

We are one - we are free
We will rise - no compromise

We are one - we are free
And we need a place to be
We are one - we will rise
Gonna be no compromise
We are one - we are free
And we need a place to be
We are one - we will rise
Never be a compromise
