STRIVING ON...

As we continue to rise,

You will attempt to fence us in

With your visible bankrupted morality.

Our eyes are still watching God;

Our ears still hear His roaring thunder;

Our spirits still feel High John the Conqueror

Riding on the rays of the Son of Ra—Shinning.

Pregnant light of liberation

Births new strategies; we’re ready.

Bring on your new years’ challenges.

We are children of blood and thunder;

We will not be pushed back under.

Out of your brier patched humanity,

We’ve strived:  And still, we shall survive.
