I rise because my people's blood is a rolling tide
So roll tide roll
By fire by force
I dont apologise for choosing
Black fire force
I remain staunchly steadfast
Constant as the northern star
So when I sing along
With my uncle bob
Rise up all you fallen fighters
Rise up and take your stand again
I say it with a smile
Because I have the same belief
As OR Oliver Reginald Tambo or Mandela
No boasting
Just being an honest a d principled African
And I wrote it because I liked it
And I will continue to do so
Before I meet Biko, I didnt stutter
In my African heaven
If and only if it exists
I am African and my freedom is my station
Thula ndivile my spiritual wine
As I sit and realise
That just because I sip
Durbanville Hills on ice fancy bucket
I am still, calm and standard
And irie still
And I cannot accept
Karl Marx
Even though the west on an electric wire
with fake stories from their travels
Succesfully showed that he makes sense
so rise up all you fallen fighters
Rise up and take your stance again
if you can follow my flow okay massive
You can follow me like how you would follow the birds
Because admit it, it makes sense
I am black and I am proud
And I will if needs be shout it out aloud
Black man you are sort of alone
When my people sing like trumpets in Moria
Yes we can
Legends in our lifetimes
We are wealth, both together you and I
Solidarity is Black buy in, in nature
Because fundamentally blackness
Has traditionally meant oppression.
Hem hem amen
