State of Emergency Songtext
von Sacred Reich

Jailed and beaten, left to die
Political prisoners of apartheid
Youth of the nation violently oppressed
In the quest for freedom thousands dead

How can we let this be?
In their country they must be free
When will segregation end
When will the masses be free again?
Again

I can′t conceive of this injustice
I can't believe it′s going on
White man's law is held supreme
Black man have no rights at all


How can we let this be?
In their country they must be free
When will segregation end
When will the masses be free again?
Again

In this age let's have harmony
Humanity, all can be freed
This injustice must now end
The masses will be free again

How can we let this be?
In their country they must be free
When will segregation end
When will the masses be free again?
Again
