Is This Freedom Lyrics - Lucky Dube

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 looks 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
