Lungelo Mthembu - The F.I.G.H.T lyrics

[ Intro : ELi ] There is no progress without disobedience There is no progress without rebellion It is through disobedience that progress is made Through disobedience and rebellion This is why we must fight Fight for what is true Fight for what we believe And for what we know is true To be Free Individuals Generating Hiii Thoughts To be Free Individuals Generating Hiii Thoughts Now this is The F.I.G.H.T [ Verse 1 : Mandy ] Oh African child, you're a fighter Can't hold you down You're much higher You're a fighter [ Verse 2 : ELi ] From, fighting aparthied to fighting AIDS I know we're all fighters, been fighting from early days Momma was fighting cancer, the doctors put her on leave I was fighting the fear of watching my mom leave How do we fight poverty, children living on streets Nine to Five ain't a job for me, got me feeling so weak What the bosses are paying me is making my labour cheap And I don't want to be a slave I just want to be ... free [ Verse 3 : Mandy ] Freedom it has a price And it costs too much Are you willing to pay Or carrry on living as slaves(x2) [ Outro : Alex Jones ] Now in the 21st century it's time to stand up and realize that we should not allow ourselves to be crammed into this rat maze. We should not submit to de-humanization. I don't know about you but I'm concerned with what's happening in this world. I'm concerned with the structure. I'm concerned with the systems of control, those that control my life and those that seek to control it even more. I want freedom. That's what I want and that's what you should want
