For my country
We hear of Race, Hate, Religion
Dividing brothers
Clan. Color. Creed
Crumbling systems
Never heard of anything like this before
Realized like a mirage in the desert taking form
Loved, admired and adored
A dream, a vision, a fantasy
Nobody saw coming true
Reality ripping through the sky's torrid blue
One man stood tall
Defied all odds
Armed with his dreams
And faith in Almighty God
The world said this place will never be stable
Divided by deep rooted tribal aggression
One man set out on a unity mission
They said, They're weak, hapless and unable
To keep the peace between them
We proved them wrong
20, 30, 40, 50 years, still going strong
Never bet against men who are determined, willing and able
To carry dreams of unity on their bared burdened backs,
Push their bare open chests in the face of any attacks
Don't bet against a mother
Holding her son by the hand
Leading him straight to the front lines
Telling him to stand
Aim. Steady. Fire!
Defend your honor
God, Country and Truth
Our love for this keeps growing stronger
With every drop of blood we shed
We live to conquer
Fear us at war
Love us at peace
Don't patronize us
Don't wake the beast
We come in full force
We get things done
We don't retreat in fear
We don't cower and run
We come from ruggedness
We plowed the sand
Men tearing through the dunes
Renewing the motherland
Women standing tall
Taking charge when our men fall
We stand together shoulder to shoulder
The vision and determination of our founders getting bolder
With every drop of sweat, blood and tears
We root this love of land in our dears
Children, grandchildren and generations to come
We're blessed to always strive to be Number One.
The story is on going, always evolving, never done.
