CRY NO MORE First they stole our bodies (I can cry no more) Then they stole our sons Then they stole our God And gave us a new one Then they stole our beauty The comfort in our skins Then they gave us duty And they gave us sin And then came Generations That helped to build this land The bedrock of a nation Was laid with these brown hands The solace of a people Was found with that new god And many peaceful steeples Would guard the road we trod Then they stole our solace And then they stole our peace With countless acts of malice And hatred without cease A foul and dirty river Runs through this sacred land With every act of terror They tell us where we stand 500 years of poison 500 years of grief 500 years of reason To weep with disbelief The legacy is mighty (We can cry no more) We can’t carry this alone You have to help us fight it Then together we’ll be home Then together we’ll be home Then together we’ll be home. (We can cry no more!) | CRY NO MORE It's not enough to mourn It's not enough to weep The power of your anger has to carry past next week It's needed every level there's so much work to do there's a rising tide of justice and it all begins with you and it all begins with you |
