For all those who died fighting the good fight

They were somebody’s baby

Brother/sister a mum or dad,

Stood up for their rights

Aired their voices clear

But then they paid the price

Through acts of violence,

Perpetrated through fear 

And now they’re dead.

They were somebody’s baby

Who had the right to live,

They were somebody’s baby

But they’ve now been put to rest,

For standing up for justice and liberty

How can this be right,

They were somebody’s baby

Let’s stand up for what is right.
