Road to Fyzabad

Drew Gonsalves

[Verse 1]
Nineteen-thirty-seven this story began
With a crowd raging down the streets of a town called Fyzabad
A leader arrested a field set aflame
All order overgrown, power overthrown, a fuse finally blown
But they say we in a different age
We reach a brand new stage
We turn a better page
No need for protection forget them unions
And they talk disarmingly of progress and unity
Drop your guard like they say
Look the other way
And they running to steal the day

[Chorus]
We going down Fyzabad
We going down Fyzabad

[Verse 2]
From country to city
The wildfire spread
From cane field to factory
Everybody join the fete
With [?] and bottle providing the beat
People marching in the street
Soldiers in retreat
Freedom singing sweet
But they say we in a different time
To leave the past behind
Look how bright the future shines
No need for uprising, stop organizing
They say don't swim against the tide
You will be swept aside
It's not in our hands
It's "supply and demand"
It's the iron law of the land

[Chorus]
We going down Fyzabad
From all over Trinidad
We going down Fyzabad
When things getting hard
We going down Fyzabad
Right back to the start
We going down Fyzabad
Right back to the start

[?] remember
[?] remember
[?] remember
[?] remember

Oh, Trinidad remember
Remember Fyzabad

Port-of-Spain remember
Remember Fyzabad

San Fernando remember
Remember Fyzabad

[?] remember
Remember Fyzabad

[Verse 3]
Brand new millenium, same struggling land
There's a crowd bouncing down the streets of a town
Still called Fyzabad
Insurrection delayed
No [?] beyond parade
The sound and the blast still gonna pass
They chanting they shall not pass
They say for better or for worse
To put the nation first
Who God bless let no man curse
Mind all your manners
Throwdown the banners
And they say to have some faith
Good comes to those who wait
Drop your guard like they say
Look the other way and you'll be waiting till Judgment Day

[Chorus]
We going down Fyzabad
We going down Fyzabad
We going down Fyzabad
Right back to the start
(Down Fyzabad)
(Down Fyzabad)
We going
(Down Fyzabad)
We going
(Down Fyzabad)
