Lyrics
I hear the gunfire, see the blood run, feel the rage I see a black man, see a coloured man, in a cage The sweat of miners, digging diamonds, digging graves To feed the bossman, to feed his family, to feed his slaves Men are cursing, women praying, for release But when a white man killsone of "them" no one sees From Capetown, to Pretoria, to Johannesburg there is a crying Of people dying, that can be heard I hear the gunfire, see the blood run, smell the fear You lock your minds up, shut the curtains, you close your ears Forget the black man, neglect his baby, ignore his hell We need apartheid to keep the animal in his cell You sweep the pavement, shine the buildings, display the maid You say "republic", I say blind man, it's a cage God makes the color, but the color doesn't make you God And in the judgement, He will remember the ones you robbed Without the Lord's love, this injustice will prevail Until Jesus is the only Master, we'll never break the bars of jail
