When The People Speak - Dougie MacLean

For too long we’ve heard them laughing at our dreams

Ridicule our reasons and blind ignoring what it means

For too long we have believed the walls they made

But now we see a shining light and we are not afraid

But when the people speak, it’s not with corporate lies

It’s not with indecision, no, or academic bows and ties

When the people speak, it thunders through these hills

It’s not a thing that’s mild and meek when the people speak

And there’s a fear that’s made to keep us in our place

Pacify our anger and justify our fool disgrace

There’s a fear made to destroy and to degrade

But now we see a shining light and we are not afraid

But when the people speak, it’s not with corporate lies

It’s not with indecision, no, or academic bows and ties

When the people speak, it thunders through these hills

It’s not a thing that’s mild and meek when the people speak
