They hanged my thoughts with the gallows of liberty
They sealed my mouth with the charts of human rights
They buried my dreams within a pirate’s flag
They think my dreams have a body “NO”
They’re wrong
They’ll never kill ‘em
‘Cause they will always rebel against
Those who robbed a hard loaf from a child’s mouth
Those who robbed a sweet smile from a baby’s face
Those who always drive a limousine on the path of our sorrows
They think they were born to enslave our souls
They think they were born to crash the castles of our dreams
Nay, they’re wrong
One day they’ll pay for the tyranny of their filthy hearts
One day they’ll wish they were never born wealthy
That day is lurking on the edge of a sombre future.
