State Of Emergency

(albüm: The American Way - 1990)

Jailed and beaten, left to die
Political prisoners of apartheid
Youth of the nation violently oppressed
In the quest for freedom thousands dead

How can we let this be
In their country they must be free
When will segration end
When will the masses be free again

I can't conceive of this injustice
I can't believe it's going on
White man's law is held supreme
Black man have no rights at all

How can we let this be
In their country they must be free
When will segration end
When will the masses be free again

In this age let's have harmony
All people can be free
This injustice mustnow end
The masses will be free again

How can we let this be
In their country they must be free
When will segration end
When will the masses be free again
