They’re tearing down the city They don’t care who gets in the way They told you black was white for so long You believed it that way I’m scared for the children I’m scared for their children I’m scared for you Look at through a child’s eyes there’s nothing there The land we thought was yours they took without care I’m scared for the children and I’m scared for their children and I’m scared for you We all build the fire, feel the ambers glow We all build the fire, the flame of freedom grows
The flame of freedom The flame of freedom There’s a land in the Africa’s stolen from the brave Push a man to the edge make him a slave And I’m scared for the children And I’m scared for their children And I’m scared for you And I’m scared for you Watch the children build the fire Feel the ambers glow Watch the children build the fire The flame of freedom grows The flame of freedom The flame of freedom The flame of freedom The flame of freedom
