Now I can't take it
The man's complacent
The greed, the lies and the Devils ties
Now I can say that I hate it
My words they won't be forsaken
We're gonna rise yeah
We're gonna rise come on
It makes me sick
I know you feel what I'm feeling Cause
It's our family's food that their stealin
We're trusting two faced politicians
On the words that they tellin while they're suffin their pockets with their greed and their thieving
While our country is suffering and our people are starving
Look into the eyes of an African child see the hope and glimmer in his eyes
It's got to change
It's got to change
Manje angikwazi ukukuthatha
Ukuzithela ngabandayo kwendoda
Ukuhaha, amanga kanye noDeveli bayabopha
Manje ngingasho ukuthi ngiyakuzonda
Amazwi ami awayikushiywa
Sizovuka yebo
Sizovuka woza
The only change that comes
Is when our country is one
Not when it's time to vote
And For you to boast
To live in luxury while the rest of us roast
Were suffering why can't you see
Were sick of your lies why won't hear our cries
I love my land and I love my people
The stories they tell and yours to steal so lift your heal we're gonna rise yeah we're gonna rise
The only change that comes
Is when our country is one
When we love another and we for each other
Ushintsho oluzayo kuphela
Yilapho izwe lethu lilinye
Lapho sithanda omunye futhi thina komunye nomunye
Manje angikwazi ukukuthatha
Ukuzithela ngabandayo kwendoda
Ukuhaha, amanga kanye noDeveli bayabopha
Manje ngingasho ukuthi ngiyakuzonda
Amazwi ami awayikushiywa
Sizovuka yebo
Sizovuka woza
you say you gonna chase me past the coast come on
We're a hundred to one
We're the ninety nine we ain't afraid of the one
So come on
Raise the Poverty line past the sun
While you sit on your asses and you're stealin our taxes
You think you've won
Because you split up my brothers and my sisters
Telling your lies spreading racial devision
Your the thorn in our side
We've got nothing to hide
We're gonna we're gonna rise
Come on
I know you hate me so stop being so passive aggressive
While you so power obsesive
The war is over we've already won
And you know it's cause we're gonna rise

The greed, the lies and the Devils ties
Now we can say that we hate it
Our words they won't be forsaken
