- Lyrics -
[Verse 1]
Our city lights glow bright, but hearts are cold,
We've taken too much, the truth unfolds,
Stolen dreams and broken homes,
We walk on lands, we don’t own.
[Pre-Chorus]
It’s time to stand, it's time to fight,
For what is just, for what is right,
The past is loud, it’s in the night,
We owe them all, let's make it right.
[Chorus]
How can we laugh when the world's in pain?
How do we live with this shame?
We’ve got to give it back, make the change,
Their hearts are burning, feel the flame.
[Verse 2]
History’s pages soaked in tears,
Ignored their cries for too many years,
The land we walk on, their sacred ground,
We need to hear their ancient sound.
[Pre-Chorus]
It’s time to stand, it's time to fight,
For what is just, for what is right,
The past is loud, it’s in the night,
We owe them all, let's make it right.
[Chorus]
How can we laugh when the world's in pain?
How do we live with this shame?
We’ve got to give it back, make the change,
Their hearts are burning, feel the flame.
[Bridge]
The winds of change are blowing strong,
We can't ignore, we've been wrong,
Let's build a future where they belong,
Their spirits rise, our anthem song.
[Chorus]
How can we laugh when the world's in pain?
How do we live with this shame?
We’ve got to give it back, make the change,
Their hearts are burning, feel the flame.
How can we laugh when the world's in pain?
How do we live with this shame?
We’ve got to give it back, make the change,
Their hearts are burning, feel the flame.
