Speak!



In times of great oppression
I must never keep silent
For silence is surely consent
A YES! to persecute violate
An OK! to abuse and lies.

Speak my people, speak!
Let your voices fill each home
Each street
Let the shouts of freedom
Resonate
Leave no nook or corner
stone or stick
Unturned.

In times of great suppression
Gloom
Your silence will only spell doom
Fear not!
Bring out the drums
Ring the bells
Let the cymbals clash

In times of great distress
Empower, yes!
Freedom of the press

Cry, sing, dance!
Let a billion heartbeats
Pound!

Together, let's scream!
Cruel creature!
Ugly beast!
Your time is up!
It's over!
Now BEGONE!

Note:
At the time of writing this, I am saddened that Bersih organisers are again called into submission. The rally on Jul 9 may be called off, but will our hearts stop beating?
