Well you can cast aside my plea

toss me off as some ol’ beggar on her knees

if that’s what you see

But we all know the truth in that

you’re clinging to the pact of your supremacy

but that ain’t what we need

But you’ve been ruling for so long it’s clear you don’t know right from wrong

So we’ll keep marching on

And yes we’re begging for a change

and no we can not see its name

We’re blinded by the constant pounding lie

That every man can be a king

and it won’t cost us anything

But ancient blood that’s hidden in the mud

Lies aside I see it here

The rhetoric of constant fear and crying eyes

Just trying to survive

But we are waking from our sleep and know our numbers make you weak

So we’ll keep marching on

From the muffling of sacred rights to pray and sing into the night

Your ships did sail

But oh your mission failed

Cuz here we stand on crumbling lands

Tied turned and left with dirty hands

Stained with the truth and some think there’s no use

In doing what we can to change or take our thoughts and rearrange them for our youth Deserving of that truth

That if you still can’t hear our plea it’s only you you’re shackelling

So we’ll keep marching on
