[00:20:800]The great flood of tears that we've cried
[00:25:450]For our brothers and sisters who've died
[00:29:800]Over five hundred years has washed away our fears
[00:34:900]And strengthened our pride, now we turn back the tide
[00:44:050]We will no longer hear your command
[00:48:750]We will slide your control from our lands
[00:53:500]Re-direct the flame of our anger and pain
[00:58:900]And pity the shame
[01:00:600]For what you do in God's name.
[01:06:850]We will stand for the right to be free
[01:11:750]We will rebuild our own society
[01:16:050]And we will sing, we will sing
[01:19:500]We will sing our own song
[01:26:800]When the ancient drum rhythms ring
[01:32:050]The voice of our forefathers sings
[01:36:010]The will to live will beat on, we will no longer be pawns
[01:41:250]to greed and to war
[01:43:500]We will be Idle No More
[01:49:950]We will stand for the right to be free
[01:54:350]We will rebuild a just society
[01:58:800]And we will sing, we will sing
[02:01:800]We will sing our own song
[02:23:150]We will stand for the right to be free
[02:27:750]We will rebuild a just society
[02:32:200]And we will sing, we will sing
[02:35:100]We will sing our own song
[02:43:010]When the ancient drum rhythms ring
[02:47:900]The voice of our grandmothers sings
[02:52:050]Native America run, we will no longer succumb
[02:57:650]to oil and ore, we will be Idle No More
[03:06:100]We will stand for the right to be free
[03:10:450]We will build our own society
[03:15:010]And we will sing, we will sing
[03:17:960]We will sing our own song
[03:24:950]We will teach about the right to be free
[03:29:150]We will build our own society
[03:34:150]And we will sing, we will sing
[03:37:050]We will sing our own song
[03:43:750]Dance dance for the right to be free
[03:49:010]We will build our own society
[03:53:200]And we will sing, we will sing
[03:56:150]We will sing our own song
[04:03:550]And occupy for the right to be free
[04:07:650]We will rebuild a just society
[04:12:250]And we will sing, we will sing
[04:15:100]We will sing our own song
