South Africa's Cry
A song made by Mthobisi Silinda
Oh, Jah bless this land, hear the people's plea, easy now
From the townships to the cities, a shadow starts to creep
Our young ones losing direction, promises they couldn't keep
Drugs are flowin' freely, a poison in the stream
Turning vibrant futures into a broken dream, yeah
Parents cry in anguish, their hearts so full of pain
Watching sons and daughters fall, again and again
South Africa, hear the cry, from every mother's soul
Our new generation fading, losing all control
We need justice strong and true, to protect the innocent
Bring back the peace we yearn for, let righteousness be sent
Criminality takes over, bold and without shame
Ignoring laws and mercy, playing a deadly game
They say no rights for evil, when innocent blood is shed
Protect our children's future, before all hope is dead, oh
We lift our voices higher, for a change to come around
Let justice flow like rivers, upon this sacred ground
South Africa, hear the cry, from every mother's soul
Our new generation fading, losing all control
We need justice strong and true, to protect the innocent
Bring back the peace we yearn for, let righteousness be sent
Rise up, South Africa, easy now, let freedom reign. One love.
