“We Shall Not Be Moved”
We shall not, we shall not be moved.
We shall not, we shall not be moved.
Just like a tree that’s planted by the water,
We shall not be moved.
We’re on the road to freedom, we shall not be moved.
We’re on the road to freedom, we shall not be moved.
Just like a tree that’s planted by the water,
We shall not be moved.
We walk this road together, we shall not be moved.
We walk this road together, we shall not be moved.
Just like a tree that’s planted by the water,
We shall not be moved.
We’re fighting for our rights, we shall not be moved.
We’re fighting for our rights, we shall not be moved.
Just like a tree that’s planted by the water,
We shall not be moved.
Voices raised together, we shall not be moved.
Voices raised together, we shall not be moved.
Just like a tree that’s planted by the water,
We shall not be moved.
