We died for that right
For a free spoken voice
And to elect as our leader
Who is best for our choice
We died for that right
So decisions are made
And our rights as a people
Won't wither or fade
We died for that right
To choose where we learn
And where we can live
From the profits we earn
We died for that right
To share in this land
And not live as slaves
Or policed by the man
Though we died for that right
We're still at a loss
Because our people don't vote
And we pay for that cost
