Michael Collins a working class soldier
Martin Luther a king without a crown
Malcolm X a hustler who changed heart
They were shot down, they were shot down
Only a Revolution will tackle our fears
Of feeling young and standing for liberty
Kate Sheppard with the power of the vote
Mandela a president after prison
Ali defied to go to war
They stood tall and they stood proud
Only a Revolution will tackle our fears
Of feeling young and standing for liberty
Does anger burn when you see your town run down
Do your eyes swell when children are shot dead on the ground
Do you cringe when you hear of corruption so clear
Fed up theres so many of us right
Only a Revolution will tackle our fears
Of feeling young and standing for liberty
