Lucky Dube - Is This Freedom Lyrics






She got outside one morning
To see what's going on
'Cause she heard all the noises
In the night, It's a celebration
Even though she was old and grey
It didn't mean she was deaf and dumb
She took one look at the man
Throws her hands in the air
And said God help us all
Too much power in one mans hands
Is dangerous
She has never tasted freedom
And all the things
We take for granted
Then she looked at me and said
Son, Is this the end of our suffering?

[Chorus:]
Is this freedom?
Is this freedom?

We have just witnessed the
Change of power from one fool
And liar to another
Our lives on the line again
She had lived through the wars
She didn't wanna go through it all again
She has seen injustice
She has seen corruption
She has seen racism
And any other kind of suffering
You can think about
Then she said to me
Son, Is this the end of suffering?

[Chorus: till fade]

  80. A.... R....

    have also seen corruption,love of money ,stealing from me in the name of representing me and my people,where is the virtue of contentment in the world?

  81. B.... T....

    who's listening in 2016?👐

    B.... T....

    Listening in 2018

    B.... T....

    BlackMAGIC TV even in 2018 i am still listening, dube is d best Africa has ever produced

    B.... T....

    BlackMAGIC TV I’m doing that always

    B.... T....

    I am. 04/16/2019

  82. W.... E....

    how i lyk it.......... too encouraging .....find another muscian lyk DUBE there wil neva be ....... u made a mark in me

  83. t.... d....

    His death was the " least expected " one. Flash and flushy. More than a passing dream.

  84. b.... ....

    But as Ryan T say: this music is a mission.....!!!!) good message

  85. b.... ....

    I am the Number one fan of lucky.....) good musicien big voice (6 differents) but Bob Marley stay alone in Reggae more less gifted than lucky in voice but got Much more technic of song......)

    b.... ....

    me too ma lovely bro ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥

  86. D.... f....

    this man was better than bob marley

    D.... f....

    You dont know who Bob Marley is.

    D.... f....

    Absolutely correct💪💪👍👍👍

    D.... f....

    They were both prophets

    D.... f....

    Mxolisi Eagle With all respect to Bob Marley, I think Lucky Dube was great than him! Look at his music, the lyrics!!! I even think his discography beat that of Michael Jackson regardless of him being more famous and powerful.

    D.... f....

    If you are a real reggae fan and a Rastafarian you don't need to compare them. They are all good with their different message. Reggae music is music with message every time not a competition

  87. C.... K....

    This is freedom man, no raciste, no correction, only freedom for black people

  88. P.... C....

    Even tho you are gone ur music will never die.....

  89. p.... ....

    Listen to Reason! Now that THE MOON CYCLE (The Cycle of Forgiveness and Mercy) IS OVER, sacrificial lambs and also scapegoatism for the guilty and by the guilty are UNACCEPTABLE and INEFFECTIVE in this LIBRA CYCLE, and therefore, such sacrifices (as THE INNOCENT paying penalties for THE GUILTY) will cause negative backlash and laws-of-nature destruction of the guilty.

  90. R.... A....

    eli e de ais ne gata

  91. S.... C....

    LUCKY U R DEAD BUT UR SONGS LL NEVER EVER DIE......R.I.P BROTHER WE ALL LOVE U

    S.... C....

  92. E.... K....

  93. t.... n....

    is this the kind of freedom u have bn telling us abt

  94. E.... A....

  95. m.... ....

    I agree 100% !!

  96. m.... ....

    Today we hear the Mugabe hasn't died... it's very disappointing that Africans like him walk the earth ruining it, while brilliant men like Lucky Dube are dead!

  97. W.... t....

    @neloga fair play :)

  98. n.... h....

  99. W.... t....
