Hear Me

Oh my people
Hear me oh my people
Hear me oh my people
Hear me oh my people
Hear me oh my people
Hear me oh my people
Hear me oh my people
Hear me oh my people
Hear me oh my people
Hear me oh my people
We see at this moment, justice
Still stumbling on the streets of South Africa
And apartheid still reigns supreme on the throne of land
And the price is high, but the end is near
We hear the voices of the beast
As it shouts at us, as it tries to frighten us
As it tries to intimidate us
And we know the price is high but the end is near
We know, we know, that we will have to pay
And it is costly, and the struggle is long and hard
And the road is arduous
The price is high but the end is near
Do not despair, do not look around
Do not betray our faith, do not betray our children
Do not betray our fathers, do not betray our mothers
Do not betray our vision
Do not betray the justice we are fighting for
Do not betray the lands we will see that will rise up
Out of the ashes of this country
As apartheid will crumble to dust
The price will be high, but the end is near
Hear me oh my people
Hear me oh my people
Hear me oh my people
Hear me oh my people
Hear me oh my people
Hear me oh my people
Hear me oh my people
Hear me oh my people
Hear me oh my people
Hear me oh my people
Hear me oh my people
