On the eve of yet another Independence Day of this country...I think it only appropriate to share a few tracks that have always inspired me and instilled pride in my soul... Music that not only makes me appreciate independence as a Barbadian...but as a black man free of the struggles so many other blacks are still enduring... Sing Our Own Song The great flood of tears that weve cried For our brothers and sisters whove died Over four hundred years Has washed away our fears And strengthened our pride Now we turn back the tide We will no longer hear your command We will seize the control from your hand We will fan the flame Of our anger and pain And youll feel the shame For what you do in gods name We will fight for the right to be free We will build our own society And we will sing, we will sing We will sing our own song When the ancient drum rhythms ring The voice of our forefathers sings Forward Africa run Our day of freedom has come For me and for you Amandla Awethu We will fight for the right to be free We will build our own society And we will sing, we will sing We will sing our own song Robin, Stokely, Daveny, Jamantha, Dominic, Billy, Akobi, Justin, Keoma, Ayesha, Tremayne, Nigel https://youtube/watch?v=OiE1Ir0Gnxc
