Calm Before The Storm lyrics

You took our people, and baby you took our land You ignored the pain, and you stole from our hands You took away our pride, and you came into our homes And now we're strangers in our own land, and on strange paths we roam (chorus) Silent night before the dawn Don't you think that it's the calm before the storm? Once we were proud men, and now we're down on our knees We have let them take over, and now they do as they please What's it gonna take, to light that spark of pride And if our courage does not waken, we'll be taken for a ride (chorus) instrumental break (chorus) Tell me you people, are you willing to act? For the men that could save us, they will need to be backed No one should sit back, and leave it to the rest And every person's courage, will be put now to the test (chorus) x2
