They Can't Take Away Our Music
There is one thing that I'm sure
It's so proud and it's so pure
And it comes from deep within
It's got no hair, it's got no skin
As we travel far and near
Deep in the world for you to hear
And the message that we bring
Is the light in the words that I sing, hear me now
And no matter how bad you feel
We got something, oh, that you can't steal
No, they can't, no, they can't
No, they can't take away our music
No, they can't, no, they can't
No, they can't take away our music
In the ghetto, it gets cold
But we got something to warm our souls
Like a blanket of our faith
Keeps us covered when we shake
Though they take my brother's life
And deny his given rights
Yes, the message will be heard
As the four winds spread the word
And our spirit they can't break
We got the power to communicate
No, they can't, no, they can't
No, they can't take away our music
No, they can't, no, they can't
No, they can't take away our music
No, they can't, no, they can't (no, they can't take away)
No, they can't take away our music (oh, ooh)
No, they can't (they can't take away), no, they can't (they ain't ever gon' take away)
No, they can't take away our music (no, no)
(Leave my music alone)
No, they can't, no, they can't
No, they can't take away our music
(I can't part with my music, oh Lord, oh no)
No, they can't, no, they can't (leave my music alone)
No, they can't take away our music (leave my music alone)
(Never take my music away)
No, they can't, no, they can't (oh, you can take my money, take my life)
No, they can't take away our music (but, hell, you'll never be able to take away)
No, they can't, no, they can't (do not take away, take away)
No, they can't take away our music (oh, yeah, don't take, take away, yeah)
No, they can't, no, they can't (sing it, sing it, sing it, ooh)
No, they can't take away our music
No, they can't, no, they can't
No, they can't take away our music
(Sing it to me one more time now)
No, they can't, no, they can't
No, they can't take away our music
No, they can't, no, they can't
No, they can't take away our music
No, they can't, no, they can't
No, they can't take away our music
No, they can't, no, they can't
No, they can't take away our music
No, they can't, no, they can't
No, they can't take away our music
It's so proud and it's so pure
And it comes from deep within
It's got no hair, it's got no skin

No, they can't, no, they can't
