# SOUND OF RESISTANCE [Intro] Yeah... Hear me now.... Hear the sound... The sound of resistance! One world... One nation.... Jaahhhh Rastafariiii..... [Verse 1] Mi hear the people crying in the street tonight Too many chains and too much injustice in sight Them build up the system, them tell we obey But the fire inna the people won't fade away Mi see the pressure Mi feel the pain But every drop of struggle Make the fire rise again You can't silence truth You can't bury the flame When the people wake up Nothing stays the same [Pre-Chorus] Stand up! Don't bow down! Raise your voice! Make the sound! From the ghetto To the town Let the whole world hear us now! [Chorus] SOUND OF RESISTANCE! Hear it in the streets! SOUND OF RESISTANCE! Feel it in the beat! We won't bow! We won't break! We won't surrender For freedom's sake! SOUND OF RESISTANCE! Louder than before! SOUND OF RESISTANCE! Kick down every door! Raise your voice! Raise your hand! Let the whole world understand! SOUND! OF! RESISTANCE! [Verse 2] Them try divide us by colour and creed Feed the people fear when what we need is peace Tell the youth that silence is the safest way But silence never changed a single yesterday So mi speak for the ones Who are afraid to speak Mi stand with the strong Mi stand with the weak No hatred inna mi heart But mi won't accept the lie Truth is my weapon And mi lift it to the sky [Pre-Chorus] Stand up! Don't bow down! Raise your voice! Make the sound! From the ghetto To the town Let the whole world hear us now! [Chorus] SOUND OF RESISTANCE! Hear it in the streets! SOUND OF RESISTANCE! Feel it in the beat! We won't bow! We won't break! We won't surrender For freedom's sake! SOUND OF RESISTANCE! Louder than before! SOUND OF RESISTANCE! Kick down every door! Raise your voice! Raise your hand! Let the whole world understand! SOUND! OF! RESISTANCE! [Instrumental Break] [Heavy distorted bass + hard rockers drums + dark Hammond + explosive horns] [Verse 3] Mi no fight against the people Mi fight against oppression Mi no preach about destruction Mi preach about progression Freedom for the worker Justice for the poor Truth for every child And opportunity for more You can lock the body But the mind stay free You can build a prison But the spirit still can see And when the people rise With love inna their heart No force upon this earth Can keep the truth apart [Bridge] Can you hear it? THE SOUND! Can you feel it? THE SOUND! From the ground To the sky! THE SOUND! We are still alive! THE SOUND! We are still alive! [Distorted Electric Guitar Solo] [Heavy melodic electric guitar solo over Cm – Bb – Ab – G] [Final Chorus] SOUND OF RESISTANCE! Hear it in the streets! SOUND OF RESISTANCE! Feel it in the beat! We won't bow! We won't break! We won't surrender For freedom's sake! SOUND OF RESISTANCE! Louder than before! SOUND OF RESISTANCE! Kick down every door! Raise your voice! Raise your hand! Let the whole world understand! SOUND! OF! RESISTANCE! [Final Hook] We rise! We stand! We speak! We resist! We rise! We stand! We speak! We resist! SOUND OF RESISTANCE! SOUND OF RESISTANCE! SOUND OF RESISTANCE! [Outro] Hear the bass... Hear the drums... Hear the voice... The sound of resistance... Still alive.
