Upright, Forward Songtext

von Amazulu

Oh, yeah

Some people seem to take life for a joke
Going around and playing foolish games
You hear say once man built his house on firm ground
Well, same applies to life, you got to have a nation

Oh, yeah

Can't take this fussing and fighting no more
'Cause everywhere I go, I see, is pure war
Big man on small man, small man on big man
When will find peace among ourselves
Yeah

So we're gonna walk in an upright, forward-looking radical way
When we put our hearts together, we can build a better nation
So we're gonna walk in an upright, forward-looking radical way
When we put our knowledge together, we can teach it to the children

Oh, yeah

Upright
I'm talking about upright
Yeah
Upright
I want you to be upright
Yeah
Upright
I'm talking about upright
Yeah
Upright
I want you to be upright
Yeah

The poor man feel pressure day by day
And some say that guns is the safer way
Nation 'gainst nation, so many versions
When will find peace amongst ourselves
Yeah

So we're gonna walk in an upright, forward-looking radical way
When we put our hearts together, we can build a better nation
So we're gonna walk in an upright, forward-looking radical way
When we put our knowledge together, we can teach it to the children

So we gotta walk
In a radical
Walk
We're in a upright
Walk
In a forward-looking fashion
Yeah

Yeah.
