Our eyes were closed for a long time
We were really blind
We had no Direction
We’ve moved around in desperation

But now our eyes are open wide
And we can see the changing tide
We won’t let them rule us anymore
Won’t let them abuse us
That’s for sure

We’ll stand up and fight yeah
Fight for our right yeah
Won’t let them use us no more
Won’t let them hurt us no more

We’ve been down so long
Now we’re getting strong
Through all our years of suffering
We’ve learnt so many things

And now our eyes are open wide
We can see the changing tide
We won’t let them rule us anymore
Won’t let them abuse us
That’s for sure

We’ll stand up and fight yeah
Fight for our right yeah
Won’t let them hurt us no no
Won’t let them use us no no
So, we’ve been down so long
Now we’re getting strong
