Lyrics
Description
Brothers and sisters… elders, youth, the humble, and the strong.
I stand before you, not as a ruler, not as a politician… but as one of you.
For too long, we have been told we are free, yet still we walk in chains.
For too long, promises have been given, but bread has been withheld.
They call themselves protectors, yet when you bleed on the roadside,
they ask for a card, not your name.
They speak of service, but when you are hungry, they offer only words.
This is not love.
This is not justice.
This is deception.
[Pause – silence for impact]
Nelson Mandela once declared:
“Never, never, and never again shall it be that this land will experience the oppression of one by another.”
Yet today, the chains are polished, but still they bind us.
Steve Biko taught us:
“The most potent weapon in the hands of the oppressor is the mind of the oppressed.”
And today they still enslave our minds with false hope, false freedom, and false dreams.
Thomas Sankara warned us:
“He who feeds you controls you.”
And they feed us crumbs, while they dine on banquets.
But I tell you now—
We will not rise with hatred.
We will not destroy what is ours.
We will rise with truth.
We will rise with dignity.
We will rise with the might of God in our hands.
Martin Luther King Jr. said:
“A man who won’t die for something is not fit to live.”
And I, Tshwarelo Emmanuel, am ready—ready to give all,
so that our children may dream again.
My people…
We are not weak.
We are not poor.
We are the inheritance of God Himself.
And today, I say with a humble heart but unshaken spirit:
No more.
No more lies.
No more scraps.
Rise with me.
Rise for our elders.
Rise for our children.
Rise for the dream of Africa—
not bowed, not broken—
but free at last… truly free at last.
[Outro: music fades to silence]
