lyrics

Cha-la-la-la-la-la
Cha-la-la-leng
Awe
Cha-la-la-la-la-la Lay
Listen

Exploitation of the meek
Is a cowardly act
Incarceration of the innocent
A theft of life
State-sponsored murder
Of the people is vile
It’s a crime against humanity
The powerful will do
What you let dem do
Politicians are not doing
What you elect them to
The rich are getting richer
The middle class is on the floor
And the poverty-stricken can’t even get through the back door.

We need tomorrow's freedom today - Aye (Freedom day, today)
We need tomorrow's freedom, I say - Ah-Hah (Freedom Day, hoo hoo hoo)
We need tomorrow's freedom today - Aye (Freedom day, today)
We need tomorrow's freedom, I say (Freedom Day, hoo hoo hoo)

When the roads get rocky and longer
And you sense that danger
Just reach out to thy neighbors
Cause a good friend won’t let you down, down, down
The tyrants roam the town
Dem shove you to the ground
A knee pon you neck
Bullet ina you back
Murderers, dem dea pon your track

We need tomorrow's freedom today - Aye (Freedom day, today)
We need tomorrow's freedom, I say - Ah-Hah (Freedom Day, hoo hoo hoo)
We need tomorrow's freedom today - Aye (Freedom day, today)
We need tomorrow's freedom, I say (Freedom Day, hoo hoo hoo)

Oppression a dem mission
Uprising is a must
Poverty it a di weapon
No charitable trust
Life without choice
Bondage without chains
Can’t make your own decisions
Misery without gains
The hypocrites and parasites
Dem heart full a spite
Dem a weaponize religion
Stand up for your rights
May the sun rise on you, in prosperity
Free of subjection

We need tomorrow's freedom today - Aye (Freedom day, today)
We need tomorrow's freedom, I say - Ah-Hah (Freedom Day, hoo hoo hoo)
We need tomorrow's freedom today - Aye (Freedom day, today)
We need tomorrow's freedom, I say (Freedom Day, hoo hoo hoo)

I’m gonna lean on my brothers
Whoo Whoo
And my brothers can lean on me, on me
You see, I’m gonna call on your sisters,
Yaye
And my sisters can call on me, on me
Whoo Whoo

We need tomorrow's freedom today - Aye (Freedom day, today)
We need tomorrow's freedom, I say - Ah-Hah (Freedom Day, hoo hoo hoo)
We need tomorrow's freedom today - Aye (Freedom day, today)
We need tomorrow's freedom, I say (Freedom Day, hoo hoo hoo)

Freedom day, today
Freedom day, today
Whoo
