I don't know where to stand, up on the mountain or down in the sand,
Cause I like being way up high, said I like being up but I don't know why,
But up here I can see the walls built by man to divide us all,
They've been making war and deny us peace
They took away the land and then they brought disease
Those white men who've got the key to black mans identity
And those lands they were s'possed to be forever.
They got no heart, they got no right
And if you decide to fight, please know that we can fight together!
We'll be the water, water, water
We'll be the water for their fire (water for their fire)
We'll be the water, water, water
We'll be the water for their fire (water for their fire)
They have the tendency to put in their pockets everything they see,
They‘ve been taking lands all across the globe
And writing down their name on every rock and stone.
But it aint no mystery, they're keeping the children from their ancestry
They lock them out of their sacred ground
Well, one day I'm gonna see them pull those fences down
Those white men who've got the key to black mans identity
[- From: http://www.elyrics.net -]
And those lands, they were s'possed to be forever!
They got no heart, they got no right
And if you decide to fight, please know that we can fight together!
We'll be the water, water, water
We'll be the water for their fire (water for their fire)
We'll be the water, water, water
We'll be the water for their fire (water for their fire)
Now, our history is a shame to me but I still got faith in humanity,
Can we swap back all the wrongs for rights
And let the people walk free every day and night, cause
Each nation has their own piece of earth that they call their home,
It's a point of reference to identify
So if you don't know where you come from, you know why. (It's those)
Those white men who've got the key to black mans identity
And those lands, they were s'possed to be forever!
They got no heart, they got no right
And if you decide to fight, please know that we can fight together!
We'll be the water, water, water
We'll be the water for their fire (water for their fire)
We'll be the water, water, water
We'll be the water for their fire (water for their fire)
