In this hallowed land downunder where change is underway Lies a spark untamed and fierce that will not fade away It's a flame that feeds on anger on the wrongs we can't ignore It's a fire that fuels rebellion and a cry of something more No chain can bind our spirits no shackle lock our might No wall of privilege shield them no discrimination aid their flight They trample with exclusion they wound with bias so deep But we are the strength unbroken a promise we will keep Through the storm we march together a relentless fearless throng Our hearts alight with purpose our resolve forever strong Against the tide of injustice we'll stand firm and we'll fight For every lost and voiceless soul until we make it right They think us weak and weary they deem us frail and slight But we'll show them we won't falter in this never-ending fight Through the darkened veil of sexism through racism's hateful sneer We'll march with heads held high no surrender and no fear We'll break the bonds of hatred we'll shatter all that's wrong No more the voiceless victims; we're coming and we are strong With hearts ablaze and minds afire we'll tear down each vile trace Of the oppression that has held us of the shame we'll not embrace Through the storm we march together a relentless fearless throng Our hearts alight with purpose our resolve forever strong Against the tide of injustice we'll stand firm and we'll fight For every lost and voiceless soul until we make it right We'll stand for all the silenced we'll speak for those unheard We'll fight for every soul oppressed by action and by word We'll challenge every bigot we'll fight them to the grave We'll be the beacon in the darkness the valiant and the brave For this is not a whisper it's a shout into the night A rallying cry of warriors a symphony full of might It's a call to all who hear it a summons to be free A battle cry of the unbowed a fight for equality Through the storm we march together a relentless fearless throng Our hearts alight with purpose our resolve forever strong Against the tide of injustice we'll stand firm and we'll fight For every lost and voiceless soul until we make it right Let the world hear our roaring let them tremble at our song For we are the unyielding and we'll fight with tine and prong With a love that's fierce and fearless with a rage that's pure and right We'll bring forth a new tomorrow a world overflowing with light So heed this cry you mighty you keepers of the chain Your walls are but illusions; your power is but in vain We're the tide that's ever surging we're the storm you can't subdue We're the hope the dream the future we're the many not the few' Our voices will be thunderous a storm that will not cease A tempest of determination a wind of lasting peace Stand with us or stand aside but know that we'll not bow We're the voice of all humanity and our time has come it's now
