We see blood on the cheeks of those
who have buried their loved ones
who have died in the struggle
and we share their grief
and we know that...

"the price is high but the end is near..."

We see of this moment
elections still crumbling
and tears still reigning high and supreme
on the throne of our soil
and we know that...

"the price is high but the end is near..."

We hear the voice of the beast
as they shouts in us
as it tries to frighten us with vainness
and intimidates in same deceit
we know that...

"the price is high but the end is near..."

but we will have to pay
but its costly
and the struggle is hard and long
and the road roughly difficult
yet we know that...

"the price is high but the end is near..."

Do not despair
do not look around
do not betray our faces
and do not betray that trust
as we know that...

"the price is high but the end is near..."

yet unity in diversity
countries slogan battling amidst tears
the pain of not getting justice
on a soil we fought for
but we know that...

"the price is high but the end is near..."

we will see that we will rise up
out of the ashes of freedom
as deceit will crumble to dust
then posterity will know peace
for we know that...

"the price is high but the end is near..."
